WASHINGTON, Sept. 24 (UPI) -- U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney took a bruising when he talked to House Republicans about the $700 billion Wall Street bailout plan, some at the meeting said.
Cheney spoke with House Republicans behind closed doors Tuesday to try to rally them behind U.S. Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson's proposal to stabilize U.S. financial markets, the Web site Politico reported Wednesday.
