A few days ago this article was posted here and a diary based on it was pretty inflammatory. It was ugly, the comments were ugly and no one thought to suggest that we wait and see what Hillary actually had planned before attacking her.

Turns out the former adviser is wrong. According to a current Aid, HRC will be laying out the specifics of her plan to reform Wall Street and according to the aid "nothing is off the table".
And before anyone says she is not specific enough... first of all, I prefer a candidate who takes time to make detailed and considered plans and number two... please show me the specifics in any of Sanders or O'Malley's speeches.
Here is the article you should read where the current aid is quoted. It is also an interesting article about E. Warren.

After the speech, Alan Blinder, an economist who the Clinton campaign says is advising the former first lady, told Reuters that Glass-Steagall was not going to be part of the candidate's economic platform.
"You're not going to see Glass-Steagall," Blinder said.
A Clinton aide, however, refuted Blinder on Wednesday.
"She will be announcing her ideas for dealing with the continuing problem of 'Too Big To Fail' in the coming weeks, and nothing has been taken off the table," the aide said.
In a 2013 interview with CNN, Bill Clinton blamed deregulation -- and the repeal of Glass-Steagall -- on Congressional Republicans.
"The American people gave the Congress to a group of very conservative Republicans," he said. "When they passed bills with the veto-proof majority with a lot of Democrats voting for it, that I couldn't stop, all of a sudden we turn out to be maniacal deregulators. I mean, come on."
You go Bill, tell it like it was.
