Then she absolutely forced the issue at Wachovia.  She insisted that Wachovia sell to Citigroup even though Wells Fargo wanted more time and a market solution was available for Wachovia with no hint of a government guarantee.  

If Sheila had sucessfully sold Wachovia to Citigroup she might have two banks to deal with or Citigroup might just sell the loans she had guaranteed.  

But now is Sheila Bair's moment.  If her past behaviour is anything she will confiscate Citigroup because it looks sick.  She has the ego, she has the momentum, she has the form.

Sheila can of course run this, sort it out, become Treasury Secretary and otherwise rule the world.

Sheila Bair - just admit the precedent you set is inappropriate and resign!
