Rush has what happened at the meeting. McCain was set up by Paulson. Personally think Bush should have spoken up and taken over the meeting instead of allowing Obama to keep going after House Republicans.
This is not the plan McCain wanted but he was between and a rock and a hard place. Anyone that knows anything about McCain knows he is against pork and spending taxpayer money foolishly. Actually the original House bill was cheaper but if he went against the bill, he would have been cruicified and the bill would have still passed. McCain got sandbagged by Paulson and Bush was just kind of there.
Yet for some reason, he just voted for a bill that was $150 billion more pork-laden that the bill he "helped kill" in the House on Monday.
I'm over it, and while I understand the reasons behind "our" spin, I just can't swallow it anymore. It's over...
