There were some newbies on various threads pushing the idea that Rubin should be called in as a confidence-builder. I found that amazing and highly suspicious, since in my opinion very few of the sheeple even know who Rubin is.
Rubin has also maintained a VERY low profile over the last year. Isn't that strange, considering all the other Clintonistas have been all over the tubes yammering about what Bush should do?
Here is another interesting thing...those crummy bonds Gray Davis is issuing from California are being bought by Citicorps, Goldman Sachs, and a bunch of the usual suspects. My highly suspicious mind causes me to guess that Davis is getting bailed out by his friends on Wall Street, and I think Rubin is behind part of this.
Coupled with the fact that Enron had NO investigations of any of their practices for the last 3 years of the Clinton Administration (by the SEC) I am beginning to see Rat crooks everywhere.

You know, I think that the corporate scandals could end up playing a bit like the Lewinsky scandal did in 1998.
Gingrich had initially hammered it hard, and it suddenly stopped. As it turns out, he was getting a little action on the side himself. He very quickly backed down, and ultimately, the only folks energized by the whole thing were the Dems and their voters (a portion of the GOP base stayed home), turning what should have been a good GOP year to a major disappointment, and it ultimately took Gingrich out of politics.
Here, I think the same dynamic might be playing out. Only this time, it will be the Dems who mostly back off as it turns out their guys are not exactly innocent on this issue. They could end up going very quiet as Clinton's SecTreas and their 2000 VP nominee are tarred. And their silence will not play well with the "progressives", who have someplace to go (Green Party).
This could be very interesting...
