Wall Street Reform
We are seeing what might be the rarest of events in the life of a senate bill. It is actually getting stronger, not weaker. Now, here comes a unique problem for the GOP. If the GOP votes against it, and they probably want to, it looks like they are for Wall St. Judd Gregg is saying that it could pass as soon as early this week. However, according to Republicans, there are several weak spots in the bill, such as an amendment about Fanny and Freddie. An amendment to audit the fed has passed, 96 to 0. The bill has forced a division in the Republicans. One side wants to end debate before the bill gets "worse," while the other side wants it to go so the bill can be further shaped. A vote to end debate may come as soon as Wendsday.
