Think Progress picks up on a story in the New York Daily News about two of Sen. McSame's closest advisors, John Green and Wayne Berman, who were recently lobbyists for now-defunct Ameriquest, the predatory home mortgage lender that had to pay some $325 million to states after being successfully sued over their lending practices.
