This will--more than likely--put Maxine Waters in the driver's seat. Definitely will be interesting to see how this will play out. http://finance.yahoo.com/news/bank-r...160618626.html

Barney has finally done something I can support. It doesn't say anything about him being instrumental in causing the mortgage crises that he worked so hard to fix. With a little luck Maxine will be voted out too.

I think it's safe to say that there is no one single person that holds more responsibility for our current economic mess than Barney Frank. Good riddance!

sadly his name is on the reform bill. Everyone forgets he was there when the mess got started! Good riddance for sure!

I will say this about Barney, I actually agree with him on two issues. 1) We must cut "defense" spending in order to reduce the deficit and 2) Decriminalize the possesion and sale of Marajuana (I don't smoke it or sell it BTW). Other than that I don't know of a single think that I don't wholeheartedly disagree with him on
