Paulson Update [Rich Lowry]

Quick e-mail from friend following negotiations quickly (excuse typos):

So it looks like a deal is shaping up

Treasury purchases plus mbs insurance (cantor)

Strong oversight/taxpayer protection

Limits on executive comp

No liberal add-ons (acorn, bankruptcy judges, proxy access)

Govt equity stake likely to be scaled back or dropped. No staff-level enthusiam for it.

Limit on amount of first tranche of money (less than $700 billion)

This deal gets 100 house gop votes

As I said, as of 2-3 hours since that NRO thing (depending on eastern or central time), ACORN is STILL in there, confirmed on fox news channel.
