    The blogosphere is abuzz with rumors of a partial nationalization … I mean pre-privatization … of Citibank.

    And it’s only Sunday. I thought these things happened Friday evenings. I’m not sure if that makes this bank failure early or late.

    We officially have blood in the streets. Perhaps this is a buy signal. But if you’re going out to take a look, watch your step … it’s kinda slippery out there.

    The buzz being caused by folks like Greenspan, Lindsey Graham, and Chris Dodd.

    Did you see Roubini and Krugman on “This Week” yesterday… even George Will admitted it might be the best move for the taxpayers.

    If we can talk seriously about forced, managed bankruptcies for the automakers, we should be able to apply the same logic/sense to the behometh banks. BofA and Citi are zombies. That will be uncovered in the “stress test”.
