Lipstick on pig, eh? Hilarious. The 205 Ayes, who voted in favor of the bailout bill, should lose their seat in the next election.

Which spineless representatives changed ("corrected") their vote, from Aye to No or vice versa, once they saw the outcome ? I throw the "not voting" Weller into this category. I have even more contempt for an Aye vote changed to No than I do for an unchanged Aye.
