Cantor voted for the bailout bill. He’s demonstrated that he doesn’t care about the Constitution, nor the value of the dollar.

Is anyone really surprised? We knew that McCain would do this to us all along. Remember those important Supreme Court nominations? Yeah, I’ll bet he’ll really come through with those too.
To: Zeddicus
John McCain is our nominee. We should support him no matter what.

No matter what? Get a grip...if that’s your philosphy you can kiss America goodbye.

If McCain maintains this position, he will be selling out our nation no more or less than Obama.
We can only hope he regains consciousness before he votes tonight.
If this passes this senate, then it is back to our original battleground in the house.

John McCain is our nominee. We should support him no matter what.Blind "no matter what" devotion is for Liberal sheep.
McCain has fundamentally violated the principals we entrusted him with, and which he said he would support.
The name-taking, anti-pork, no bailouts, make-them-famous maverick does not exist.
Conservatism is supposed to be based on principles, which mean nothing if we discard them for a pretender.

As I understand it the SEC Chairman ( Cox ? ) already had the athority to suspend it. The bill that failed reaffirmed his athority.
For the life of me, why,why,why has this not been done 1st. Something really stinks in Denmark over this issue.
Glenn Beck needs to findout why...

IMHO, it was Palin who managed to negate most of Palin's bounce. I would expect better oratory skills from a journalist and sitting governor, and maybe she should have spent a little more time boning up on current events once serious buzz started going around about her short-list status...when was it? Late July? It's not like she didn't have a chance to read any of the "variety" of national publications she claims to see drifting across her desk. And you can't exactly keep her locked away for the duration of the campaign until Election Day and hope that nobody will ever ask why she can't be on-camera and speak into a hot mic. Face it. She was a political gamble, a decision made in hasty reaction to the DNC. She might, at one point, been the best choice for McCain, but I don't think for a second that she was ever the best choice for the country. Given McCain's medical actuarial tables, there is at least a decent probability that she could end up in the Oval Office inside of the next four years. Apparently more than half of people polled are starting to have a real problem with that prospect. You can't blame her interviewing skills on McCain.

If its good enough for John McCain, its good enough for me and should be good enough for the rest of you. If the same rules that apply to us little people applied to McCain, Obama, and the rest of the buffoons on Capitol Hill, all but two would be in jail.

“I see you are still here spreading your anti-McCain spam in the hopes of getting your messiah Obama elected.”
Is this what the McCain campaign has come to?

Would "Cantor" be the Congressman Eric Cantor who is the GOP leadership and one the biggest cheerleaders for the House bailout bill?

So you'd write-in a huge proponent of the Congressional bailout to protest McCain being a huge proponent of the Congressional bailout.
Brilliant. Just brilliant.
