Bear Stearns and Eliot Spitzer-- the conspiracy!
A former student sent me this intriguing little bit of muckraking... which makes me seem quite moderate on these issues!

They did (while controlling the presidency and both houses of Congress) limit the ability of states to independently regulate lending, consistent with their rejection of Ronald Reagan's belief in the rights of states and the principle of federalism.
