but i agree with him that chuck devore has a selective memory.he wall street crisis was partially a reflection of a failure in regulations. for example, if glass-steagall were put back in place today, something that mr. campbell favors, the wall street crisis was still have happened. we had 20 or more regulatory agencies not doing their job. fannie and freddie are a huge part of this problem. one of the things that has happened in the dead of night is that the ceiling for conservatorship of fannie and freddie was raised from $400 billion to an unlimited ceiling. in other words, the u.s. taxpayer is on the hook. we cannot solve the wall street -- wall street crisis unless we ensure transparency on wall street, accountability for people to take debts that are too risky. i have called for many years for anyone that takes a bailout to resign and tender the resignation of their entire board. >> let's stay with this financial pain, if we can. how much power or control should the government have over wall street? >> insofar as power or control over wall

chuck, you were asking him about to try to characterize the mood. is it anti-establishment? anti-washington, incumbent, anti-obama. what did you make of his answer? >> his answer was interesting because he thinks it's anti-business as usual. and i did sbraupt him to say it's interesting because your party controls the house, senate and white house. and his answer was he didn't mean so much exactly the way that government has been operating the last few months but the longer term efforts to change things that he thinks the public doesn't like, such as the abuses that led to the mortgage crisis, meltdown, what he sees as too much influence by wall street and that sort of thing. so i thought that wasn't a bad answer if the democrats can sell that argument. what i think he seemed to be saying was we haven't had quite enough time to make these changes. he didn't put it in those words but it seemed to be what he was getting at. >> and the threading of the needle, the really hard part is he brought up, you and i bodes asked him about some of the older chairmen who have been around

what fewer people know is that you and chuck schumer are long-time friends, hout mates when you're in washington and you're both members of the leadership. there's a lot of buzz among politicos around here that you're sort of eyeing, already eyeing the leadership and that there's maybe a little tension. there's maybe a little tension. can you address that? >> harry reid is the majority leader and he will be the majority leader after the election. and i have told him and i have kept my word that i will not approach any member of the senate caucus to approach this matter at all. matter at all. it doesn't help the caucus or harry reid to have this speculation going on. >> do you think chuck shumer approached this with him? >> i have no idea. but that's my position. >> tell us more about the mid-term land scape. it's a confusing landscape. >> it is. >> there are so many different types of candidates and there doesn't seem to be -- i mean, liberals seem to be doing well in some places, moderates in others. how do you recksile the frustration that people have with government right now? and

he held out that senator olympia snowe, chuck grassley, susan collins from maine, all who he courted,he in, he could not get the single vote of any one of them. >> if i were a cynic, i could say that a lot of time was wasted in trying to get bipartisan support when a lot of us thought that was never going to happen. but the flip side, that cynicism, it would not be just republicans he was trying to lock down. he was trying to lock down enough democrats to get the thing passed. >> absolutely. many of the efforts that were taken that maybe were interpreted as trying to get some republican votes also had a lot to do with some of those centrist or moderate democrats, especially in the senate, but to some extent in the house as well. i am thinking in the senate about joe;8 lieberman of connecticut, the third-party candidate, ben nelson from nebraska. he was no. 60. he was the final vote that they vote. senators lincoln and landry, also conservative democrats that took a long time to bring along. we are seeing this again in congress on things like regulatory reform, climate change legislati
