Pelosi tried to get through on a minimum no of Dem votes so to protect Dems that could be put out by voting for the bailout, it backfired spectacularly when the Repubs called her game, realised what she was up to and voted accordingly to embarrass the hell out of her.

Yes, of course you're right! How silly of me. I was adding in the Senate with its six-year term. Thanks for pointing out my lapse so kindly!
