Yesterday the main stream media was saying that they are waiting on McCain's decision on the bailout. Everyone was waiting to see what he was going to do because he doesn't always agree with Bush. I thought that was interesting.

I haven't heard any updates. Where are we at now on this?

I dont know. no access to TV or radio today. dont see anything on the internet either.

Me either.

I was reading that the larger percentage of the Dems don't want the package. I'm sure that is a party line issue.

Obama is parroting everything on the issue that McCain has already addressed several years ago.

I believe they are preparing for the debate Friday night - maybe he'll present something then.

I heard it was a Foreign policy debate, but they were wanting to change it to an economic debate. Have you heard if they changed it?

the Paulson plan will happen problably tomorrow night. watch the market run sidways for a while, then as the senate and house debate it, and it looks bad, the market will run down and the Rs and Ds will feel like they have no choice.

they all want to go home to get re-elected, and they cant go back home and say they did nothing.

They wont do the right thing and fix this for real with market solutions (and more deregulation). No they will have to do the major bailout.

I'm sure. I was a bit disheartened to see that Gwen Ifill is going to be the Moderator for the Biden/Palin debate. She is a total liberal and a big time Obama supporter.

4. lower corporate Taxes to 12% (Irelands current rate).

Open drilling everywhere.

They could do this tomorrow and the market would respond. Money would flow like crazy.

What is number 2?
