Now that Obama is talking about trying to push a little harder to get Wall Street and The Big Banks to play by the rules, they're aligning against him; and against anybody who speaks out in favor of re-regulating.
In a previous post, I wondered why Repubs were sounding so confident of a resurgence, and I said then that it all sounded hollow. It isn't. The big money contributions are running 2-1 in favor of the Repubs.
Here's the story at WaPo today. Oh well; it was nice to dream of things getting better.
