Republicans Kill Bailout Plan, Markets Tank

House Republicans kill the bailout deal they previously got behind.

The market is not pretty. Began down over 700. Now down 500 or so.

Can’t see how this helps McCain, but conservatives are probably happy. They have to be against this or their fundamental basis for existing goes away.

I’d not want to be near retirement right now.

  • OK let me get this straight. The vote failed due to a speech? How lame is that? A speech didn't change the substance of the bill.

    Also, didn't McCain's suspension of his campaign work? Looks to me like he failed miserably.
