    What the bailout does is help those who are concerned about the health care reform that is needed to help shore up our economy. Um, helping, oh, it's got to be about job creation, too. Shoring up our economy, and getting it back on the right track. So health care reform and reducing taxes and reining in spending has got to accompany tax reductions, and tax relief for Americans, and trade. -- Sarah Palin

    Coulda, shoulda, woulda. Perhaps those are the three words that best sum up this trade.

    I have some interesting thoughts...
