Senate fails to pass $14 billion auto bailout
Senate fails to pass $14 billion auto bailout
Senate Democrats and the White House failed to find 60 votes to end debate on a $14 billion auto bailout bill and bring it to a vote Thursday night, killing the measure for the year.
The 52-35 vote followed the collapse of negotiations between Senate Democrats and Republicans seeking a compromise.

Looks like the big 3 will be tightening the purse strings to stay afloat while congress continues to deliberate.
