Obama has finally backed an effort on Wall Street. The New York state Attorney General is heading a group with other states and federal backing to investigate.
It appears these are good people with resources and jurisdiction to do it.
It became clear things have changed with California's AG, who is one of this group, refused to join other states in settling with banks - and other major states followed.
Here's a clip from Rachel Maddow interviewing the head of the group, who has the position Elliot Spitzer used to have when he was investigating Wall Street.
There's another clip on Keith Olbermann with Matt Taibbi I don't have linked currently.
