Well, no Republicans here...

I know some people will vote for McCain just because they don't like Obama... But really, now that this HUGE government takeover is being debated... all talk of free markets and deregulation goes out the window. Both candidates support some kind of a bailout. Both support this form of socialism. Yeah, I guess Ron Paul is still a Republican as he does not want a bailout.

Me, I don't like big government bureaucracy either. But, with no regulation, greed and corruption take over. I like to keep the government in check, but let's be honest: we haven't had total free markets since the wild, wild West. And as you know, things were boom or bust out there.

I would support some form of bailout, I guess. But it had damned well better be thought out carefully. Letting the former CEO's of these wayward institutions escape in golden parachutes will really piss the people off. Better they be publicly hanged as in the old West!!! Yeah, I stand to personally loose a lot. But pushing through a bailout just to save face for the Bush Administration is not acceptable. I'll take my knocks, but they should take a while to hash it out as I said earlier.
