With Wachovia and Golden West getting hitched, the talk in banking is all about who else is seriously courting.

Wachovia Bank's $24.2-billion deal this week to buy Golden West Financial, the parent of World Savings Bank, reignited industry speculation that more big mergers will surely follow. The same chatter happens whenever two big financial institutions decide to combine, but this time there may be more reason to pay attention.
