Maybe after I’ve had more time to think about this goddamn crap I’ll be able to give a better reading of the debate.

I’ve just finished reading the key points to Senator Chris Dodd’s alternative to the bail out plan and I have to say I agree with the folks like Paul Krugman who are saying this is more like it — it’s a “step in the right direction.” The thing is, as Krugman points out:
Paulson displayed a [...]

McCain aide Rick Davis wasn’t too happy today about being called out by the NY Times, on his ties to Fannie & Freddie and particularly the role he “played in helping Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac beat back regulatory challenges when he served as president of their advocacy group, the Homeownership Alliance, formed in the [...]
