Republican Opposition to the Bailout


The conventional wisdom is that Democrats benefit when the conversation turns to the economy. You might think that the opposition of conservative Republican House members to the bailout could provide a boost to McCain's campaign insofar as it distances him from Bush, who is pushing the plan. But to make that work, I think McCain would have to be (far) more comfortable discussing economic issues than he is. So I think McCain still loses on this.
