Salon is the #4 News Source for Henry Paulson
We now have Secretary Paulson and Chairman Bernanke appearing on Wall Street, and their announcement is "We're from the government. We're here to help you."
UPDATE: The Wall Street Journal reports that Barney Frank says the White House is already making concessions:
President Bush on Monday said, "The Secretary and I share the concerns of our citizens, concerns about jobs, concerns about their savings accounts. This is a tough situation for America. But we'll recover from it. And the first step to recovery is to safeguard our financial system."
