Not one Democrat voted for it and so the bill died in committee.
WE COULD HAVE AVOIDED THIS MESS PEOPLE

Actually mcain didnt get himself added on to the bill until 2006 and considering in 2004 they controlled it all. If it was so important they could of pushed for a vote.
Also Mccain's campaign manager has been getting payment from freddie and fannie til may 2008 but that doesnt matter. THey are all whores.
