They won't get anywhere; their credibility are already shot in pieces, and its unlikely that their reputations will get better if the main street suspects and are sure that Wall Street is punishing President Obama, just because he was elected by the people to wash up Wall Street. Wall Street has to be reformed, whether those whom are rich, cocky, and responsible for the debacle like it or not. Let's hope Secy Geithner does find a balance in addressing the issue, and ensuring that the many Board of Directors in these banks do ensure that these CEOs and the banks themselves adhere to the new rules. If the CEOs refuse or lobby the government not to, then if it comes down to the worst, these boards should consider replacing these stubborn CEOs, with new chaps who believes reforms are good for the long term future of their banks.
