520    Beginning in January 2009, The Payoff lays bare 
       Washington's culture of power and plutocracy. It's the 
       story of the twenty-month struggle by Senator Ted Kaufman 
       and Jeff Connaughton, his chief of staff, to hold Wall 
       Street executives accountable for securities fraud, stop 
       stock manipulation by high-frequency traders, and break up
       too-big-to-fail megabanks. This book takes us inside their
       dogged crusade against institutional inertia and industry 
       influence as they encounter an outright reluctance by the 
       Obama administration, the Justice Department, and the 
       Securities and Exchange Commission to treat Wall Street 
       crimes with the gravity they deserve. On financial reforms,
       Connaughton criticizes Democrats for relying on the very 
       Wall Street technocrats who had failed to prevent the 
       crisis and Republicans for staunchly opposing real reforms,
       primarily to enjoy a golden opportunity to siphon 
       fundraising dollars from the Wall Street executives who 
       had raised millions to elect Barack Obama president. 
       Connaughton, a former lawyer in the Clinton White House, 
       illuminates the pivotal moments and key decisions in the 
       fight for financial reform that have gone largely 
       unreported. His arch, nonpartisan account chronicles the 
       reasons why Wall Street's worst offenses were left 
       unpunished-and why it's likely that the 2008 debacle will 
       happen again.
