Democratic Market Ploy

Most people don't realize that the Democrats had enough votes in the House to pass the bailout plan without a single Republican vote.

Then, why didn't they?

Not allowing the bill to pass at such a desperate hour gave the Democratic leadership a perfect opportunity to demonize Republicans.  Within a few minutes after the market closed, Congresswoman Pelosi (D) was doing just that in front of the cameras.  She didn't waste any time, did she?

The Democratic mantra since this election began has been "Change, Change, Change."  Well, nothing will make people beg for change more than a collapsed stock market, or at least a really good scare in that department.

The Democrats may have found a solution to the Sarah Palin advantage.

The stock market crashed more than 777 points today, the largest one day drop since October, 1987!  And the Democrats had all the votes they needed to stop it.  Why didn't they?

You should ask yourself this question before you jump to any conclusions.  They will pass it, but not until they can somehow give the Democrats and their candidate, Senator Barack Obama, all the credit for the rescue.
