I was paying attention to the news at the time. The House version made it to the Senate and was "scaled back" by Sanders. It was even in the news that he scaled it back at the request of the White House, Treasury and others: http://www.nytimes.com/2010/05/12/business/12regulate.html?_r=5#story-continues-1
I wasn't commenting on the blog post but the general assessment that Sanders had backtracked on specific important changes in 2010.

It was scaled back so it would actually get passed. He watered it down to a point where the House will actually let it through which is better than doing absolutely nothing. Ron's proposal wasn't going to make it through the House nor Senate.
