Just moments after I finished uploading today's program, the bailout bill failed in the House of Representatives! The vote was 228-205, with about 60% of Democrats voting for it, 40% against, and 66% of Republicans voting against it!
I'm trying to get on the House website to see the actual roll call vote, but it's down... or overloaded.
And the Dow Jones is down about 550 points right now.
John McCain earlier today "took credit" for making this deal happen, and said that Obama was "watching from the sidelines". He's a walking disaster!
The pundits and experts told us that this bill had to pass in order to avoid a major meltdown of our entire economy. I guess we wait and see what happens next!
Head on over to the message board and let us know what you think!
