...The House wants send out a narrower, more housing-rescue focused bill, and the bushy has repeated the sentiment.  The energy provision could be stripped.

But if it's not, it's almost a shoe-in to get signed, since it's attached to such an important, "unrelated" piece of legislation.

It's of course no suprise that Nuclear for instance gets their financing in 15 year chunks.  None of this 1 year at a time bull.
