Republicans still shouting “regular order”. Dems still refusing to close the vote.

You are witnessing one of the best political maneuvers of all time!
George W Bush and Team McCain lured the Dems into this trap and it just snapped shut!

Why did GWB appoint a lifetime Democrat like Henry Paulson to be Treasury Secretary when he knew that a mortgage financial crisis was likely?George Bush has one great personal flaw that has cost him dearly over time: he believes himself to be a good judge of character, when in fact, he is a very poor one. Vladimir Putin. Harriet Miers. Alberto Gonzales. Henry Paulson.
See a pattern here?

IT WAS down 700- we can expect it to be very volatile- regardless of the vote.

I should have sold off Friday, but no, I didn’t think the GOP was really going to push us over a cliff.
