A Note to Barack Obama on the Failure of the $700B Bailout Bill

How can you expect me or my spouse, a registered Democrat, to vote for you and the Democratic ticket? Today, House Speaker Pelosi again took the position of “Party First” to prevent action in the House. I am referring to the non-partisan and very rational statement her office issued on September 28 regarding the $700B "bail out” plan, which she then contradicted with the typically partisan remarks made from the floor today and which resulted in the voting down of that bill as the Democrats of the House cowered before the retreating Republicans and decided to save their seats.

She and the Democratic Party have now, once again, upheld the 110th congress as a “Do Nothing and Say NO to Everything” Congress!

Democrats seem to forget that President Bush is a lame duck and we the electorate are voting for a different Republican or a Democrat this year. Frankly, I consider the congress to be worse than the Bush Presidency and believe me, I will remember this day and will vote accordingly!

Senator, I realize you may consider the issues in the house as none of your concern as you campaign your way across the USA. However, you would have me believe that you will be the leader of your party and will march us down that road of "change" as you call it. Well, show some leadership now and lead your party to a rapid resolution of this crisis. If you can't get this job done, than we will certainly be voting for someone else!
