For MORE FUN, the following is a comment, that sounds remarkably like the arrogant Malpass camp, perhaps even the man hisself (i.e., the hissy-fitter himself)!

The linkage to Enron is totally bogus!
Malpass was the chief economist at Bear Stearns, not an investment banker, and he had no involvement with the side of the business that led to Bear Stearns collapse. In the three years prior to Bear’s collapse Malpass’ team at Bear Stearns was ranked #2 in the world by Institutional Investor.

We need more people who understand the complexities of the highly-interconnected global economy helping to fashion legislation in DC — not more political hacks like Blakeman.

For God’s sake! Let us not be swayed by this moronic YouTube video, or for that matter any of Blakeman’s reliably-sleazy gimmicks!

-- will not keep his cool during this campaign. I think he'll have one of those Howard Dean YE-AHHHHHH moments.

The ‘chief economist’ post at a big financial institution is like a pet academic. They get a big office and title, but their only responsibility is to publish papers. The only difference from a professor, is that their papers are read by people who might act on them.
