She hurt their feelings boohoohoo, those morons vote against their own bill because they got their delicate egos bruised, guess it isn't always America first  |
I also think they read some of the news and saw that many people in the country don't want the bailout. Right now Bush is on the way out and with each passing day it is looking more and more like McCain won't win the election so many Republicans are starting to separate from the party and are presenting themselves as the "real conservatives." So I wonder if some of the chose not to vote for it just as a way of making themselves look good.
