There is a wild card in the upcoming election that has garnered virtually no attention. Altho the bailout bill was a Bush/Paulson scheme, it was supported and pushed mainly by democrats. They disregarded the will of the people in passing it. Will the voters reject their representatives at the polls for voting for the bailout against the wishes of their constituancies? It may well turn out that Obama may be facing a lot more republicans in congress that is believed. I for one can only wish. I'm a gridlock guy. It seems when there is gridlock in Washington, they spend most of their time posturing and making a lot of noise about the other side. Not much gets done and from what I've seen over many years of observation is the less they do the less harm is done.
