There is no such thing as a defensive vote. This is EXACTLY what the two parties want you to believe. You are voting FOR something when casting a vote. I don't think either candidate is worthy of my vote.

Paulson
News screen kept flashing his net worth at 500 Million, if he is so hot on this plan, let him pony up a few hundred million of his stash, and let him benefit directly from his great plan..
Maybe Buffet and Gates will want in on this great plan.....
Or are they too smart to buy into this horseshit scheme to bilk the taxpayers some more?
Toxic Assets are worth what? 10%? 15%? of carried book value?

Jack i have done the same thing as you. Voted for what i felt was right and walked out of that voting booth feeling proud of my decision. I can't do it this time. Obama is gonna need every vote he can get. It is a wasted vote going third party this year. I don't think i have won an election either but i can't go this route again. The sad thing is that because he is black it might cost the election. 4 more years of this same shit because a man, a brilliant man, happens to be black. Its ignorance at its highest level and i see it with some of my friends.
Before this money ever gets back in the hands of the taxpayer it will be earmarked for a bridge to nowhere and they will build 3 roads to it,don't you think.

Sure considering he helped STACK THE DECK and wants to do all the dealing now.....
Paulson has surrounded himself with former Goldman executives as he tries to navigate the domino-like collapse of several parts of the global financial market. And others have gone off to lead companies that could be among those that receive a bailout.
In late July, Paulson tapped Ken Wilson, one of Goldman?s most senior executives, to join him as an adviser on what to about problems in the U.S. and global banking sector. Paulson?s former assistant secretary, Robert Steel, left in July to become head of Wachovia, the Charlotte-based bank that has hundreds of millions of troubled mortgage loans on its books.
Goldman Sachs cashed in under Paulson, with earnings in 2005 of $5.6 billion; Paulson made more than $38 million that year. A 2005 annual report shows that ?Goldman was still a significant player? in issuing mortgage bonds. The conflict of interest is increasingly clear today, as Bloomberg reports that ?Goldman Sachs Group Inc. and Morgan Stanley may be among the biggest beneficiaries? of Paulson?s bailout plan:
Goldman Sachs Group Inc. and Morgan Stanley may be among the biggest beneficiaries of the $700 billion U.S. plan to buy assets from financial companies while many banks see limited aid, according to Bank of America Corp.
So who are you going to vote for? What do you know about them? What does their party stand for?
