Senator Crapo voted no on the bail out.  He did not choose panic. From CNS News:

The leading Republican on the Senate Banking Committee systematically shredded the $700-billion financial industry bailout bill in a speech delivered on the Senate floor last night shortly before the bill passed by a 75-24 vote.

Sen. Richard Shelby (R.-Ala.) concluded his indictment of the bill by telling Senate colleagues: “The choice we faced was between pursuing an informed response, or panic. I think we chose panic.”

    I agree, Adam. Senator Crapo is not facing the fear of re-election but he could just as easily given into the pressure to vote Yes. I also applaud him. We need to slow down and get this critical issue resolved properly, not hurriedly.
