Fishwife: Minnick Pandering w/AIG Stand

Fishwife: Minnick's comments (re: AIG) is simplistic pandering. This, by a person who accepted $6900 in campaign contributions from Bank of America lobbyists. Not a whimper from Mr. Minnick when Bank of America executives got bonuses after they got THEIR bailout. The simple fact is this. The stimulii/bailout is working. Look at today's better than expected retail sales and Wells Fargo's announcements of profits 2X better than expect.

Question: Do you think the stimulus/bailout plan is working?
