    @max

    If Dodd and Frank are responsible for the financial mess, why is Greenspan so confused and contrite: and why did Paulson declare the end of "naked capitalism." The fact of the matter is that our banking system has been run by a horde of used car salesmen, which is really an insult to used car salesmen.

    As far as Obama's potential is concerned, he has to do better than Gonzales, Rumsfeld, Cheney, Wolfowitz, Bolton, Thomas and company.
