Passage Of Senate Version Of Bailout Bill Helping McSame
He's been harping on earmarks and the Senate didn't do our guy any favors by slapping on <b>b</b>illions in earmarks on their version of the bailout bill. I'm still optimistic, but am worried earmarks will get more traction with this.
but he voted for this bill. I don't think he'll be mentioning the earmarks too much because he voted for it. If he voted NO he could have claimed Maverick and blamed the earmarks. Matter of fact it would have passed without his vote. I am surprised he didn't vote NO and take that angle.
10. He is running on a platform of "no earmarks" and "no pork"...
And yet, he just voted for this bill which was loaded up with crap. I would have been more worried if he voted against it and was all over the media bragging about making a stand against pork, etc. Repukes and Dems all voted for the bill in the majority. No one can complain about something that they voted on. Only those who voted against it will be able to take that stand.
