Repercussions of failed automaker bailout spreading quickly - Autoblog

Looks like the bailout plan has failed in the Senate.

Now it's up to Bush to take funds out of the $700 billion Wall Street bailout without a vote.

Late Thursday evening, the U.S. automaker bailout bill failed to pass through the Senate. The legislation is dead and there are no plans for another bill to go through the process until the end of the year. To quote Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, this will be "a very, very bad Christmas" for many Americans.
Understatement...

The BBC News that I just woke up to was spinning this against the unions: BBC NEWS | Business | US car bail-out fails in Senate

If Bush does now have to take this out of the $700bn Wall Street fund, what does it mean for Tesla's chances of getting some cash in the immediate short term?
