With the election of Republican Scott Brown to the Senate, the Democrats no longer have the necessary 60 votes to force through a Regulatory Reform package, and any bill will need at least some Republican support to pass.

The Stupid Party.

But “killing financial regulatory reform” is one of the dumbest things that The Republicans could ever do.

It's too bad the rest of the MSM hasn't covered this story very well. But a lot of it is complicated and even some of the top financial reporters don't understand it well. drjohn, American Banker and the rest of the trade press have been covering this story, as has the Wall Street Journal to a lesser extent.

Republicans have no incentive to go along and produce a bill. The House bill is a leftwing fantasy that will pretty much kill what is left of the mortgage business, and the Senators on the Banking Committee know it. It might make some good political theater for Dems to try to force some floor votes on this stuff, but I don't think Dodd can get anything out of the committee. It's always been a tough committee to get anything through. Dodd has been a horrible Chairman of the Banking Committee from the start, and now he is a lame duck.
