Martin O'Malley Faults Hillary Clinton for 'Closeness' to Wall Street.NYT

'My proposals go a lot further than Secretary Clinton's. . .

But the criticism from Mr. O'Malley -- a former Democratic Governor's Association Chairman -- that she is too close to big banks, is one that Mrs. Clinton's skeptics on the Democratic left often make.

Mrs. Clinton's aides declined to comment on Mr. O'Malley's broadside, but they pointed to a section of her recent economic speech in which she said she would prosecute institutions and individuals for committing "fraud or other criminal wrongdoing."'
