Wrong. I watch her show occationally. She is disappointed with "don't ask don't tell", lack of action on "torture", Slow action on Gitmo and mildly critical of a few other things. However, she is an Obama cheerleader and solidly in his camp.

Yes and no.

Paulson, Bush's Secretary of Treasury, was a former Goldman CEO. His original bailout plan focused on a small number of investment banks. Obama and Democrats came to the rescue and passed a plan that was "detailed" and a plan the met all of Obama's requirements, I think I recall he had 3. Then of course we know the rest of the story, about the financial crisis, and the on-going actions taken by our fear-less leaders in Washington to save institutions "too big to fail", etc., etc. all of this was happening while banks raised fees, interest rates, withdrew lines of credit, forclosed home in record numbers, merged with other institutions, paid banuses, execs flew in private jets, etc, etc, etc.

The industry consolidated, competition limited, government subsidized big firms, and we end up with "record" profits. Anyone paying attention saw this coming.
I think most people were focused on Palin. I admit she is a good looking woman, but she doesn't look that good.
