It Was All A Setup?

Karl Rove with Fox News John Gibson. Listen to how he details each vote and you can see Pelosi had no intention of passing this bill today with her caucus. She wanted cover so she could hang this big government bailout around the necks of Republicans. The problem … Republicans didn’t take the bait. From Instapundit.

Where is the Messiah indeed?

    I'm not sure it was that well thought out.

    I think Pelosi assumed that the Republicans would stick with their promised votes regardless of what excesses prior to the vote. She released Dems who were in hard seats and then laid into the Republicans with both barrels.
