Blame games fly after failed stimulus bill vote
Washington Republicans blamed Senate Democrat Tom Daschle for killing the economic stimulus effort while Democrats countered that a GOP drive for business and wealthy tax cuts caused the collapse. The Senate failed to reach 60 votes on the GOP and Democratic plans, ending debate and moving to a 13 week unemployment benefits extension. The GOP plan sought more tax cuts and business relief, while the Democratic plan added unemployment aid and Medicaid money. House action was urged as the bill’s fate remained uncertain.
