Big brother Socialist won't let it fail. There is just no way. When they (the socialist party) announce that they have approved the bailout, (and they will approve the bailout) the shares should jump significantly. BTW as long as they continue to funnel money to the DNC they will have political ties for the foreseeable future.

As with FNM, it can't be allowed to fail, it has to be sold back into the private sector, and it has to go up in price in order for this to work. It's the government giving you money!
