WASHINGTON — Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama plans to return to the Senate this week so he can vote for the Wall Street bailout package.


The Illinois senator is expected to support the plan, but hasn't committed yet since he's still examining the details. The $700 billion compromise legislation is up for a vote Monday in the House, with the Senate vote expected as early as Wednesday.


A spokesman for John McCain said the Republican nominee plans to be in Washington and hopes he'll be able to vote, depending on the schedule.


Obama was scheduled to campaign Wednesday in La Crosse, Wis. It was unclear if his morning rally there would still go on, depending on when the vote is scheduled, but campaign organizers said they hoped he could still attend.

You are aware that a bunch of Dems. voted against this. They could have passed it without the Repubs. Why didn't that happen?

Well, those drama-filled GOPers voted against this plan. They don't care about the American people. They just want to grand stand for re-election by trying to separate themselves from their lame duck POTUS, Bush43. This is really dispicible behavior from the GOPers.

Yup...they sent the message that they would be able to muster sufficient votes in the House to pass this.

Maybe GWB will declare a state of emergency, cancel the elections, disband Congress and declare himself King at this crucial point....
