I have now read on appraisal scoop that the headline yesterday was incorrect and the dole amendment was withdrawn (see below)
Does anyone have additional info?
Sorry for the innacurate post yesterday.

I just got off the phone after speaking with Ryan Miller from Senator Dole's office - the proposed amendment was withdrawn, not made part of any other bill and/or legislation. Mr. Miller stated that such Dole proposal is no longer a proposed part of the Dodd bill. Ms. Dole apparently spoke with Dodd/Shelby, the sponsors of the main bill, and all agreed that new "regulations" and/or "oversight" were needed; apparently though, such was not to be as part of this current bill. It appears that all hope, in regard to the Dole as Savior option, is dead. Being the nature of such legislative double-talk (and my own comments on this page earlier regarding being sure of all facts prior to reporting news), I invite all to call and confirm same; I would be happy to stand corrected. But the gentleman I spoke with most definately stated that it was withdrawn and that he felt bad about it.
