Democrats sucker punched one more time

Like Charlie Brown watching Lucy pull the ball out from under him for the umpteenth time, the Democrats fell for the Thuglicans' sucker punch one more time yesterday. They managed to turn a Bush/Paulson/Bernanke plan that was hated by Main Street Americans into a Democratic Plan, and when they went to kick the field goal, the Republicans pulled it out from under them, accusing them of being (whdayaknow?) "tax and spend" Democrats.

Meanwhile, WaMu goes down and the economy sinks deeper and deeper into the quagmire.

And, John McCain's white horse seems to be lost somewhere in the swamp.
