I'm going on record that man or woman, Democrat or Republican, our next president is going to coax Alan Greenspan out of retirement for a two-year assignment as chief of the Central Bank. Far fetched? Crazy? Maybe, but with the way the economy is going and with the relative failure of Bernanke, I can't see how the new president wouldn't bring back the Maestro. Besides, the speaking circuit is going to get pretty boring at some point and my guess is he is missing the fun.
