Republicans must be onboard this bailout. Because House Minority Leader John Boehner stated today the Republicans will not be for the bailout.
Jake Tapper writes about Boehner:
“As I told our Conference this morning, there is no bipartisan deal at this time," Boehner said. "There may be a deal among some Democrats, but House Republicans are not a part of it.”
Meanwhile CNBC reports:
The banking system needs another $500 billion to survive beyond the $700 billion rescue plan being contemplated by Congress, said Pimco founder Bill Gross.Gross said on CNBC that the government bailout plan will help free up bank balance sheets so they can start lending again, but will provide only about $50 billion in real capital to the system....
But what about the foundation from which all this came from? The mortgage holders, of which there are about 4 million in or will be in a distressed position in the following 12 to 24 months? From what I've read there has been fierce opposition from Mr. Bush and his cohort to any type of relief for home owners. Propositions from Democrats and other groups include suspension of foreclosures for 60 to 90 days, freezing mortgage rates, and allowing judges greater latitude for individual cases.
There should be no bailout bill without bipartisan support. Period. If Republicans want to kill the economy then let it be on their heads.
Democrats need to start with a major ad campaign to tie failure of this bailout for homeowners to intransigent Republicans. The campaign itself should be not about Wall Street but homeowners.
