Well, I just finished watching the vote on C-Span, and the Senate passed the bail-out bill 75-24 (only 1 not voting, Kennedy, who I'm fairly sure would have voted "yes" for it).
The House vote is expected to happen on Friday...it'll be interesting to see if this Senate passage, the 777 point drop in the stock market, and a little change in opinions here and there will be enough to get just a few more Congressman to vote for it, and pass it.
We have to bug our Congressman more than ever now, because I don't think our last line of defense (Bush) will veto this bill.
