Bailout Fails, Long Live the Bailout

Does this look familiar, from CNN:
Celebrate, right? Well, remember what happened last time a bailout failed? It came right back loaded with pork and easily passed. I'd put even money on the same outcome this time around.

I feel fairly confident that it may not come from Congress-- it's looking like the White House may be the ones to pony up the funds. I'd be happy to take the "No from Congress" side, we can settle up over dinner in Vegas in March.

The problem is that there will be less conditions on the Big 3 if it comes from the White House.
