The bailout passed, but did it help?

I don’t think so. The Dow is still down, things are still looking bad, and something I read this morning said that things may not start looking up for a while. So what was the big rush? The economy didn’t crash entirely like it said it would last Monday. It seems the only thing the “bailout” did was add more pork to the barrels of certain states.
Did you watch the Vice Presidential debate Thursday night? We did. I thought it was interesting and honestly felt like Sarah Palin held her own. I like how she talks to people like a real person rather than giving the “Washington, D.C.” take on everything.
The election is less than 30 days from now. Have you decided who you’re voting for? I think I have.
