I apologize for not commenting earlier here. But, I did want to alert you to another post I wrote about Congressional hearings in which the Democrats seem livid over how the TARP was sold and how it is being used. <br/><br/>Note the Congressman talking about PNC taking over NCC being a sign of picking winners and losers. Note good policy at all.<br/><br/>http://www.creditwritedowns.com/2008/11/barney-frank-rips-hank-paulsons-bait.html Thanks everyone for the feedback. I apologize for not commenting earlier here.

But is there anyone big enough to stop him? <br/><br/>He certainly has guaranteed himself a nice cozy chairmanship (like Ruben) or lucrative consulting contracts/speaking fees like Greenspan. <br/><br/>Hey, maybe they'll even announce a big book deal with a 7 figure advance fee payment!
