Yes, Senate and House Dems have agreed to the tax incentive enhancements because they are terrified of the political consequences of their original proposals. Republicans were prepared to run ads against them based on the original bailout.

Pelosi set up her own members for this defeat by not delivering the 12 votes she needed on Monday. She has been hoisted by her own petard and undercut by Reid. In effect, she’s been told she is incompetent.

GOP has won and McCain can take his victory lap.

Pelosi never intended it this bill to pass. If she had, the Dems could have passed it, they didn't. They want it to fail, but they want it to fail due to Republicans.
