Senate hold on bailout?
I built on kochansky's quote and got inspired:

I was thinking. Haven't we bitched and moaned at length about mystery holds on legislation in the senate? Some senator has a gripe with some legislation and instead of working out a compromise they pull this obstructionist move.
Well, this bailout move is terrible and I'd definitely like to obstruct it. So why don't we find a senator who wouldn't mind putting a hold on the bill? They don't even have to be courageous. They can do the silent hold thing.
If you'd like more eyes on the idea, please reccomend my diary on dkos
