    Oh... and again... Bush did less than absolutely nothing to discourage subprime loans. I suggest you look up the "Zero-Downpayment Housing Act" then come back and tell me the housing bubble was all due to Democrats...

    And let's not forget. Those foolish speculators who traded feverishly in subprime loans... how many of those big bank white-collars do you think were... white? And which party favored the financial deregulation that allowed such wild speculation to happen in the first place?

    This is why American politics is all wrong. The Dems and Republicans have to go. Let's replace them with the communists and the fascists, instead...

(Personally, I'd get neither... a subcompact or supermini makes infinitely more financial sense).
    I'd also get a subcompact over a hybrid (or a battery-electric vehicle) if I were seeking for cost-effectiveness. Might also consider that after a predictable 10-year lifespan, it's still cheaper to overhaul a subcompact's engine than to overhaul the engine AND replace the traction batteries of a hybrid...
