Bernanke's ship begins to sink

Reuters via Yahoo: Bernanke confirmation shakier as more Democrats defect

"Ben Bernanke's nomination for a second term as U.S. Federal Reserve chairman, once seen a sure thing, appeared increasingly under threat on Friday after two Senate Democrats said they would vote against it."
"It is time for Main Street to have a champion at the Fed," Boxer said. "Our next Federal Reserve chairman must represent a clean break from the failed policies of the past."
