about this cantor fitzgerald speech. when i read it monday it stuck out to me given who president obama is, what he stood for, all he had to say about wall street fat cats. sure. first paid speech, $400,000. $400,000 to cantor fitzgerald. not jp morgan. a firm riddled with scandal and health care, a health care that the lead banker had been chronicled in page six exactly what president obama has said is despicable sort of about that industry, and boom, there he is, 400 k. how do you make sense of that? these kinds of objections were raised about president obama when he was running for office and he got a lot of support from people on wall street for his first campaign in 2008. but that didn t in any way limit his ability to put in place the toughest reforms of wall street we have seen in put. generations. so president obama s commitment to thesesss isn t going to change whether he has got an campaign contribution for them or decided to hire them to speaks to the health care confe

i think the republicans had to play defense on this and part of that was because seven senators including the chairman of the foreign relations committee didn t sign it. but this is something that fires up the republican base and we are in that season. the republicans are angling to get the nomination and that is a good sign for the republicans. the big picture is are we going to have a deal and when and if obama announces a deal there are going to be some democrats likely robert menendez from new jersey, who is going to balic at it. and menendez is finding himself troubled with the justice department and some wonder if that would be the case
