But it's common for Liberals to argue the nuance while Conservative pundits have tended to view things in stark black and white terms.
This is the rub.
Castellanos is basing his little ditty on the regulation=bad mantra established by Ronald Reagan. Unfortunately, history has proven time and time again that a free market left unchecked will lead to excess and abuse.
As evidence of this I cite the present tense.
We're in a cycle where more regulation is exactly what we need to restore public and investor confidence in our (not really) free markets. It's up to the people to keep the pendulm from swinging too far, but if Obama does, it will show in the next election, just like it did with the dysfunctional, arrogant and completely lost Republican party.
