Seriously, what the hell is McCain going to do with this bailout?
He basically said he was suspending his campaign to help broker a deal and said at the debate that he would vote for it.

His base is furious at this legislation (moreso than the Democratic base, in my opinion, because of the whole socialist aspect).

I'm sure he will vote against it if he sees political gain from it, but how, exactly, can he do that without looking like the ultimate hypocrite/liar?


In my opinion, he is fucked either way.

1. This hurts McCain more than anyone.
Because it shows McCain doesn't even have control of his own party.
