Lawmakers Scramble To Revise Bailout Bill

The Associated Press:
Congressional leaders scrambled Tuesday to come up with changes to help them sell the failed $700 billion financial bailout to rank-and-file members. Congressional leaders hope the changes under discussion - or a few others that could be in the mix - will be enough to persuade as few as six House Republicans and six Democrats to undo Monday's stunning vote that rejected a proposed $700 billion rescue. With the Capitol largely quiet because of the Jewish new year, no overall plan appeared to jell just yet.
