SocraticGadfly: Jim Leach in the Cabinet?

Jim Leach in the Cabinet?

Yes, according to Obama Svengali John Podesta, the neolib financial sellout of the incoming Obama Administration is almost complete. Smell the Change™!

One of the three coauthors of 1999’s Gramm-LEACH-Bliley legislation, former GOP Congressman Jim Leach, will be somewhere in the Cabinet, according to Podesta.

Leach’s early endorsement of Obama should have made any real progressive or liberal start smelling a rat six months ago, coming from Chicago’s South Side and riding a horse named Change™! No wonder Obama once said he hated the slogan.
