"For a compelling account of how the financial lobby works, both in general and in this instance, look for a forthcoming book by Jeff Connaughton, former chief of staff to former Senator Ted Kaufman of Delaware." — Simon Johnson, Economix, New York Times

"It is in fact one of the best books on how corporate criminals manipulate the system to get away with their crimes." — Editor, "Payoff in the Pit of Plutocracy," Corporate Crime Reporter

"Jeff Connaughton has just published a page-turning memoir that is also a damning critique of how Wall Street operates, the political capture of Washington, and our collective failure to reform finance in the past four years. The Payoff: Why Wall Street Always Wins, is the perfect antidote to disinformation put about by global megabanks and their friends." — Simon Johnson, "One Man Against the Wall Street Lobby," Huffington Post

"Jeff is one of the smartest guys on the Hill and is particularly strong on issues surrounding Wall Street and the regulatory system." — Matt Taibbi, RollingStone.com

You want the real skinny on HFT and the SEC? Read The Payoff. This guy [Jeff Connaughton] worked with Sen Kaufman, our champ! — Jim Cramer, via Twitter

"This is the most honest book I’ve read about Washington in years – it really tells it like it is." — Andrew Cockburn
