: PR WatchWill the Fabulous Fab Push the Bank Reform Bill Over the Top?
By Mary Bottari
On Monday night, Senate Republicans lined up like lemurs and voted ?no? on a motion to bring the Senate bank reform bill to the floor for a debate. Forty Republicans and one Democrat, Senator Ben Nelson (D-Kansas), stood shoulder to shoulder with 1,500 bank lobbyists and said ?no? to Wall Street financial reform. (Evidently, Nelson was displeased that his friend Warren Buffett did not get special treatment in the bill.)
Before gloom sets in, it is worth noting that on Tuesday, all eyes will be on the ?Fabulous Fab,? the Goldman Sachs trader at the heart of the SEC?s recent charges against the firm. Some of us are rooting for the Fab, hoping that his testimony will put financial reform back on the floor and put us on the path to reform.
