A Bailout Prediction

If the bailout passes, my bet is that Barack Obama finds an excuse to vote against it, so as to position himself to denounce the "Bush-McCain bailout."

That's a mighty big "if," though. The fact that House Republicans are being pressured to vote for the "crap sandwich" is an indication that Nancy Pelosi doesn't have enough House Democrats on board to pass the bailout, and Rep. Dennis Kucinich confirms that.

Everyone on Capitol Hill says that incoming phone calls are overwhelmingly opposed to the bailout.
