It feels like people react to him the way they do Al Capone or Jordan Belfort. Obviously he's a jerk, it looks like he was probably eyeballs deep in securities fraud, but it's so audacious and disconnected from real life that it's like watching a scumbag in a movie.

Probably we're all better off with the law coming down on him, but that doesn't preclude a day-to-day fascination.
