I like the way she thinks:

While members of the Senate Banking Committee debate proposals to fix the nation's broken financial system and ineffective approach to protecting consumers, Elizabeth Warren has one message: Pass a strong bill or nothing at all.

"My first choice is a strong consumer agency," the Harvard Law professor and federal bailout watchdog said in an interview with the Huffington Post. "My second choice is no agency at all and plenty of blood and teeth left on the floor."

True, dat.

True also for financial reform generally, and health care reform. What we need, or blood and teeth on the floor. Enough of career "progressive" excrementalism. And enough of "progressives" enabling rent-seeking behavior by taking their cut.

NOTE Via, of all places, Open Left, who focus, of course, on a stupid video of SNL "presidents."
