The new official line is that no conservatives supported the bailouts, they just sort of happened.

Oh, there was a chorus of conservative voices speaking against TARP, but they were drowned out by the horde who was scared shitless that the banks would crash and take their money in the process.

Ironically enough, October ‘08 (when the bottom fell out) was about the same time that Bush hatred became a popular fad amongst the Right. All of a sudden, they all hated the years of overspending and all the stomping of Constitutional rights…after years of silent consent or loud cheering.
