Why did the Democrat Senate Committee members block the Regulations to correct Frannie Freddie Mac in 2005?

I think it was a mix of things: Chris Dodd was receiving the largest amount of financial kicks backs from Fannie Mae, he did not want to lose his cash cow. Obama was the second highest recipient of cash- he had only been in the Senate for what 143 days? Kerry received the third highest amount.... The ultimate goal for the Democrats is to put the government in control over everything even health care, so this economic plan fits right up their alley. I guess they feel the American people are not competent enough to have control over their own lives and we need to pay them all of our checks to take care of us. Furthermore, to have anything fail is just one more thing they can blame on Bush and make him look bad when in all actuality it was them. Look at what they did over the gas crisis- they have done nothing but go on vacation and have time to vote for their personal raises.
