Much thanks to freepers who discovered this.
Don't forget either:
Robert Rubin (ex Clintoon Treasury secretary, now Citigroup executive) DID call an under-secretary of Treasury repeatedly in October, asking for help re: propping up Enron's credit rating. It may have had something to do with the fact that
Citgroup had $750 million in outstanding loans to Enron at the time.
Basically Rubin was trying to get the Dept. of Treasury to artificially prop up Enron's credit rating long enough so(perhaps) there'd be a way for Citigroup to unload the paper on someone else. Not surprising at all, considering a Clintoonista was involved.
