I think opposition started with Scott Sumner in July. http://www.themoneyillusion.com/?p=22379 Very good news. I expect to see the markets react tomorrow, ala balmer on a much greater scale.

Opposition has been almost universal and started before Summers was even floated as the favorite. Here's Matt Yglesias in May:

Scott Sumner (http://www.themoneyillusion.com) and Nick Rowe (http://worthwhile.typepad.com/) have done an incredible job at helping me understand money and its role in the economy even though I have no training in economics. It's worth going back and reading their archives.

Depends on yellen vs kohn, but either one is better. If it's yellen I expect a response similar to japan's equity run last fall/winter, abeonomics.
