Some things I have my eye on this...

1. Joe Klein argues that the resistance of entrenched interests combined with the public's skepticism of government efforts may force the president to accept incremental improvements instead of sweeping reform.
2. Steven Pearlstein says that while regulators are sorting through the wreckage of the last financial crisis, the seeds of a new crisis are already forming.  Could high frequency trading be the impetus of another meltdown?
3. "Keep your government hands off my Medicare."  According to Paul Krugman, that statement reveals just how little most Americans understand about government involvement in health care.
4. The US needs China's cooperation in confronting Iran.  Why "there's no reason to panic about a China-Iran energy deal."
5. There really is no free lunch - even at the White House.
