>>2 individuals + the 91 I mentioned, compared to 172 Dems. Even if you count Paulson and the President 20 times each (and there isn't any good reason to do so) it received more support from Democrats.<< Tim - Right. It's not as if the President is in some kind of leadership position. Not this President at this time, anyway. If you just want to use the numbers, and ignore the fact that the President and Secretary of State came up with the plan and pushed it, then you can go ahead and blame the Democrats for the socialization of the banks.
