Obama To Vote On Bailout Package, McCain Says He Hopes To
NEDRA PICKLER | September 29, 2008 11:49 AM EST |
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.

I think it's time to stop placing blame on either party.
I just don't get it either. I don't know how these people can cover up all this democrat corruption and the cause of this disaster. It's clear as day in that C-Span video from 2004 and yet they still try to blame this totally on the Republicans. There is plenty of blame to go around. Nancy Pelosi, Barney Frank, Paulson, Reid all need to go and they can take Bush with them. I'm tired of them all. We need to vote all of these corrupt politicians out of office. Obama is up to his big ears in this sh*t with his involvement with ACORN whether the Dems want to admit it or not.
Thanks, Sandy!
I agree with you, and I've said many times on this board that both parties are knee deep in this one.
Yep.
"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."
