Apparently there were enough votes (Dem and Republican) until Pelosi opened the vote with a partisan rant about the very people she was asking to come together in a bipartisan way to pass this legislation. Needless to say they didn't appreciate her blaming them for something the Bush administration and numerous Republicans in Congress warned the Dems would happen in 2004 hearings on Freddie/Fannie. She might be the most incompetent speaker of all time!

The fact is she needs some Republicans so she can provide cover for some Democrats from conservative districts that want to be able to vote no. According to a number of them from conservative districts they are getting hammered at home for supporting what amounts to nationalization of a segment of our financial markets.

Now she has two choices: Find a way to mend fences with the very people she insulted or twist the arm of the Dems that are at risk. She is such an incompetent bonehead!
