A Girl Made Them Change Their Minds: You Go Nancy Pelosi!

The bailout is a no-go.
The outcome of the decision to bail out financial institutions was announced yesterday with a marginal vote of 228-205. With such a slim shot at the bailout being a go, Nancy Pelosi was credited with having swayed on-the-fencers in chaning their minds towards a no-go. Wow.
In this video, Rep. Pelosi give a very frank, direct assessment of the way that the Democrats and the Republicans worked together in the spirit of bipartisanship to arrive at amenable results. Although the answer is still “no”, I would hope still that both sides can and will agree on something, anything to stabilize the economy and get us out of this mess. Or should we just wait to see what will happen in five weeks?
