doesn't seem much different from the one the house rejected last time
is this really going to change the mind of 12 people?

Probably... yes.

Because it's quite likely that at least 12 of them merely wanted to be able to claim that they voted "no" to the first one, thereby showing that they don't just go along with business interests but have the voters' interests as a priority.

Basically, voting "no" the first time is like saying "I don't like it, but this bill is the only option we have right now, and this version is the best we can do".

Now McCain will stop is campaign again to secure the bailout, like a true american hero!
