I want to see a poll that says who deserves credit! This bill needed to fail, It is a GOOD thing.

Can’t vote in a poll that implies someone screwed up by not passing this crap bill.

By all means, everyone should vote. There are FOUR polls there, including Do you think the bailout was a good idea, and Which Party would be best to manage the economy.

So far, the good guys are winning everything but the question, was this plan a good idea.

It was hard to pull for Hasteret/Lott/Bush for who to trust to ‘run’ the economy. But I did.

4 in 1 AOL poll on the bailout.

FREEP THIS POLL ***PING!*** FRmail me if you want to be added or removed from the Fearless Poll-Freeping Freepers Ping list. And be sure to ping me to any polls that need Freepin', if I miss them. (looks like a medium volume list) (gordongekko909, founder of the pinglist, stays on the list until his ghost signs up for the list)
