Bailout will be voted on today

Congress is discussing and voting on the $700 billion bailout today. The bill and a summary are available at the Financial Services Committee website.

I've heard that Westmoreland and Broun will vote against the bailout. Gingrey is leaning that way. Marshall will vote for it and is willing give up his seat to support it.

Martin Avila is live-blogging the sessions during the day over at United Liberty.

[UPDATE] As most of you know by now, the bailout bill failed by a vote of 205 to 228.

How did the Georgia Delegation vote?
Yea: Bishop (D-2nd), Marshall (D-3rd)
Nay: Barrow (D-12th), Broun (R-10th), Deal (R-9th), Gingrey (R-11th), Johnson (D-4th), Kingston, (R-1st), Lewis (D-5th), Linder (R-7th), Price (R-6th), Scott (D-13th), Westmoreland (R-8th)
