Barack Obama selling the bail-out in Reno today

[Kurt_and_Hunter]

Has made a decision to actively sell passage of the bill. Taking ownership, and doing an excellent job of it. (Speaking at rally in Reno)

* Framed as rescue, not 'bail-out'

* Situation affects everyone in America

* Needed to prevent small business lay-offs and missed pay-rolls

* Not a hand-out to wall street millionaires

* Suggests raising FDIC insurance ceiling to 250K

* Emphasizing that loss of 700 Billion is highly unlikely and that break-even or profit are distinct possibilities.

That selling job should have been done by House leadership a week ago, but better late than never.

Meanwhile, McCain is running ads about what crap the bill is, while pretending to work for passage.
