with that particular problem. i think there s another problem here, which is obama s speech the other day did not talk at all about the actual source of the problem, which was washington. fannie mae, freddie mac a ed as rating agencies that was the source of the problem that has not been dealt with. paul: democrats think they have republicans on the run they are going to divide and break a potential filibuster and pass this is that right? you would have to bet that way i think there s a chance this could still go often rails. at the heart eight will yous the bailouts we saw through 2008 and codifies that bailout system. americans hate this paul: republicans have to stand up and say that through november. if they really believe that they think they are going to cleanup in november now this is the one issue, if they can be portrayed, rightly or wrongly as being with the banks this is the only issue that can stand in their way.
