Good Sense From A Southern Boy From Tennessee. Bob Corker Speaks Out On Financial Reform.

Bob Corker, the Republican Senator from Tennessee, talks more sense than has come from the mouths of most in Washington for months.

“Voters want to see the end of ‘too-big-to-fail’ financial firms but don’t care about the other, more arcane details that divide the two parties.”

Has Congress allowed themselves to become so polarized over the heat of the health care debate that they’ve dismissed good sense when faced with it? Is everyone unwilling to work together even when it is for the common good of all?

“This is so unlike the health care debate,” said Corker, noting that some of his Republican colleagues have made misjudgments on that point over the last month. “I don’t think people realize that this is an issue that almost every American wants to see passed. “I think that again a major strategic error has occurred.”
