Prediction

The House will pass The Bailout Bill  as soon as tomorrow Thursday.

The Dow closed down over 700(!) points in the couple hours after the bill failed. When people see their retirement plan tomorrow, that they probably lost all their interest for the past year in a day, all those complaints about not wanting to bailout Wall Street are going to vanish. Those twelve votes who switched sides because someone hurt their feelings will be scared back into reality tomorrow and then some.

Plus, now John McCain can fake swoop into Washington to try to get Republicans to vote for it. Again.

UPDATE: Apparently, the House is adjurning until Thursday, so they will probably pass it three days from now, as long as the Senate passes it Wednesday (which they will).
