BOISE - Idaho's senators are preparing for tonight's vote on a $700 billion bailout plan for Wall Street.
We learned this morning that one is for the new version of the bill, and one is still undecided.
Senator Mike Crapo says he still hasnt decided how to cast his vote.
A spokesman said the senator is waiting until he sees the final version of the plan before making up his mind.

Craig and Crapo...cheeky headline.
I see Craig is taking a wide stance on this.
This whole thing is a sham. Senators up for re-election will vote no, “safe” ones will cover and vote yes. It will pass — they think we’ll swallow it with their spoonful of sugar and life will go on. And I guess we will. It’s going to pass handily in the house. They don’t care about our voice. A few in danger will pretend to be outraged that it passed, and they’ll all get what they want. 700 billion, plus the 300 billion mortgage bailout that went into effect today. $1 trillion, and I get to pay for it, even though I said NO. &@#%ers.
Bye Craig. Hope you enjoyed your time in the Senate. It’s gone now.
For Craig, it being a crap sandwich is a plus.
What a concept!...feh
FMCDH(BITS)
I THOUGH HE RESIGNED??????????????
If anyone stands against this in the senate it will probably be Jim Inhofe. This is all he said about it in an email this morning.
“I pledge to continue working to find an acceptable solution to the financial crisis. My office has received hundreds of calls on the proposed bailouts, and I appreciate your opinions on this important matter facing our nation. As you know, the situation is evolving with each passing hour. I will send you another email after a vote takes place in the Senate.”
Being from Idaho......all I can say is.....goodbye senator craig....
That’s what I thought!
If a republican seat is going tobe lost, it might as well be one belonging to a traitor like Craig. He’ll spend the rest of his time buying up the existing pictures of his weekends with aardvarks and muskrats.
