Quote
A new national poll from Quinnipiac University shows that a majority Democrats believe the federal government should bail out Detroit, but an even larger majority of Americans oppose such a move. Fifty-one percent of Democrats support Washington providing federal assistance to Detroit, which last month became the largest American city ever to seek bankruptcy protection.

Not surprisingly, there is a strong partisan divide on the question of a federal bailout for the Motor City. Seventy-three percent of Republicans oppose a bailout, while only 18 percent support the idea. Independents are nearly of the same mind as Republicans on the issue: 68 percent oppose federal assistance for Detroit and 28 percent support it.

No bailouts for Detroit.

I bet Obama will find a back door way to do something.

Do it for one city or state, then they will have to do it for every one of them.

Detroit won't be the last.

I hear that Gary, IN is close.  And who does their mayor call for suggestions?  Daly from Chicago.  Yeah, that place has a great record for quality living.
