Minority Whip Eric Cantor (R-Va.) held up a copy of Pelosi’s floor
speech at a press conference and said she had “failed to listen and to
lead” on the issue.</font></p>  <font size=”2″ style=”font-family: verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif;”>The Speaker had
blasted the Bush administration in her speech and Minority Whip Roy
Blunt (R-Mo.) asserted that some GOP lawmakers, who had reluctantly

number that is staggering, but tells us only the costs of the Bush
Administration’s failed economic policies — policies built on budgetary
recklessness, on an anything goes mentality, with no regulation, no
supervision, and no discipline in the system.” <br /></font></p>  <p class=”MsoNoSpacing”><font size=”2″>Democrats noted that a majority of Republicans had opposed the bill, while a majority of Democrats supported it.</font></p><p><font size=”2″><b>Earlier:</b>In rejecting the proposal, House members effectively
called the bluff of Henry &quot;we need to enact this bill quickly and

President Bush, whose <a href=”http://www.marketwatch.com/news/story/bush-urges-passage-700-billion/story.aspx?guid=%7B78FC547F-D83E-4461-BB6A-DDDE75B0BE05%7D&dist=msr_8″>7:30 a.m. ET address</a>

&quot;Both parties are now negotiating vote trading, with the Democrats
arguing the Republicans should get at least 9 more of their members to
vote ‘Yea,’ bringing the Republican favorable votes up to
