Their reasons differed, but all eight Arizona members of the U.S. House found common ground in voting against a proposed $700 billion bailout of the nation's failing financial industry. When the Senate passed an amended version of the bill, however, cracks started to appear in the united front. The Senate version of the bill had a number of new provisions, including $108 billion in tax breaks for businesses and families. The bill also temporarily raised the amount of money insured in bank accounts by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. to $250,000 from $100,000, and extended tax credits for wind and solar energy.
This research examines influences on the 2008 presidential election. With an unpopular Republican president, an unpopular war, and a slumping economy, 2008 looked to be a good year for the Democrats. On the other hand, open seat elections historically have been close and less affected by retrospective considerations. Moreover, partisanship, ideological polarization, and contested nominations in both parties inclined the electorate to an even division. McCain's more centrist record and Obama's race also seemed to favor the Republicans. Taken together, these factors set the stage for a closely decided election. It was shaping up that way in the polls until the Wall Street meltdown hit in mid-September. It was the "game changer" that tipped the election to Obama.
