Finance Reform in DC; Goldman Sachs and the Campaign for Governor

Hosted by

Unparalleled campaign spending has made former eBay CEO Meg Whitman the leading Republican candidate for Governor of California.  Have special favors from Goldman Sachs come back to haunt her? Also, the stolen iPhone prototype and Apple's clout with local police. On our rebroadcast of today's To the Point, with voters outraged about Wall Street's perceived role in the financial crisis, Democrats and Republicans appear to be playing "chicken" with finance reform. We look at the likely product of sausage-making in an election year.
