[Eric J in MN]

2. she's not saying, she's interviewing people.

[Jack Rabbit]

8. Good for her

As the host of a news show, she should disseminate information most of the time and reserve a small, clearly defined spot for her opinion.

I know that isn't what most people wanted when Rachel got her show. But if I want to be preached to, I'll watch Billy Graham.

3. Rachel said, "McCain came to DC to make a plan happen. Now it's not happening

so what did he make this big move for? Will he leave DC with nothing?"

Pat Buchanan: "He's put himself in a box."


Yep. :rofl:

6. Shelby is my Sen, and I cannot believe what I am hearing.

Yeah, I know he is a Republican, which is why it is all the more surprising to hear that he doesn't support the bill, doesn't seem to support McCain.
Shelby said he had gotten letters from "some of the smartest economists in the country"
all of whom say don't do the bail out.

7. shelby was never a fan of the bunch running the rethug party

he`s still a thug but at least he understands what the consequences of this bail out is going to be

[Jane Eyre]

9. Shelby used to be a Dem

He switched to Republican shortly after Bill Clinton was elected. I think that it was in 1994.

[Elwood P Dowd]

10. No love lost between Shelby and McCain.

They've come to blows in the past.
