But what do their votes say?
It may be the case that, when it comes to financial industry reforms, there's not much light between the two major parties. But what light there is is probably most clearly represented by Elizabeth Warren and the consumer protection agency for which she advocated.
Yet as soon as they took over the House, the Republican party made it a point to immediately attack her and sink her chance to lead it. So while the conservative base hates bankers, they seem also to have been conditioned to reflexively hate any kind of realistic mechanism to regulate them even more.
