Sure, Billy. With all right thinking Republican eyes on Barney/Freddie/Fannie as the root of all economic evil, and a Tea-infused House, Barney is going to beat Newt's $1.6m rake for his "historical" advise to Freddie? Not in the reality based community, though I'm sure Murdoch and Co. will make some inventive claims if it's expedient. I'd guess Frank's retirement would look pretty much like Tip O'Neil's. A book, maybe a few commercials in a self deprecating style. Saw him on Colbert recently, seemed pretty dry. I can't see him as a Washington influence peddler / "consultant" / super pac guy in the manner of Newt/DeLay/Armey, but who can say?
