This is the "change" America was looking for?

Two things on Obama's side, he still has a high popularity rating and so far he has the majority of American's supporting the plan though I am the first to admit we don't know much about it. He will loose some American's support as the plan gets attacked (by both dems, GOP, economist and the media).
Oh... Obama also promised no pork riders in this legislation like with the first bailout plan. It will be interesting to see if he can get 80% support without trading pork fat for votes... I guess that means it will get so hacked up going through the house it won't look the same on the other end. -
