1. Not a team player and yet she is a Republican who Barney Frank recommended for Geithner's job
2. Not a team player because she is more focused on her "own agency" than "the financial system as a whole" -- which, uh, wouldn't you know, happens to be pretty much all regulated by her own agency since investment banks blew themselves up.

She is not a real Maverick. Real Mavericks are from Texas and have a last name that begins with M and ends with averick.
she may, however, be a maverick.

Etymology: Samuel A. Maverick died 1870
American pioneer who did not brand his calves
