Booooo - Part 2

Chris Dodd thinks Bush had another wild pitch:

Top Democrats Monday dismissed the Bush administration's plan to overhaul the nation's financial regulatory system as inadequate, with one leading senator calling the proposals a "wild pitch."

Sen. Chris Dodd, the chairman of the Senate Banking Committee, said he "welcomed the idea" of updating the way bodies such as the Federal Reserve Board oversee the U.S. economy.

But the Connecticut Democrat and former presidential candidate said the plan laid out by Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson "doesn't relate to the issues they are trying to confront."

[...]

"This is opening day in baseball, so let me use a baseball analogy: I would call this the wild pitch," Dodd said. "It's not even close to the strike zone."

[...]

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nevada, was somewhat more conciliatory, calling the plan "a step in the right direction."
