Classic example of a 'bad business decision' on more than one level. Governor Goofy has even more problems now.

Never trust a woman with a hyphenated surname....

In the private sector, her vacation would be permanent.

First woman with a hyphenated name that I ever encountered I managed to really piss off.

"Wow! You must be ultra-conservative to honor the two men in your life by using both their last names. No Womyn's Lib for you, huh?"

Governor Goofy II...

Interesting .... so was Maryland's:

"The director of Maryland's troubled health insurance exchange resigned Friday amid ongoing technical problems and questions about a Caribbean vacation she took while the online marketplace faltered."

The Md director did the same and apparently got fired, or she resigned: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3101112/posts Another blue state Obamacare exchange director resigns American Thinker ^ | Dec 12, 2013 | Rick Moran Posted on ‎12‎/‎12‎/‎2013‎ ‎11‎:‎44‎:‎42‎ ‎AM by bkopto The botched rollout of Obamacare has claimed another bureaucrat. Maryland's state Obamacare exchange director resigned after it was discovered that she was on a vacation in the Cayman Islands when the website imploded. This makes the third blue state exchange director forced out because of problems with the websites. Previously, the directors for the troubled Hawaii and Oregon exchanges had been run out of town. The director of Maryland's troubled health insurance exchange resigned Friday amid ongoing technical problems and questions about a Caribbean vacation she took while the online marketplace faltered. Rebecca Pearce, hired two years ago to build a $107 million exchange, leaves her post as officials struggle to repair the system that launched Oct. 1. The exchange's rocky start and low enrollment have become ammunition for political attacks on Lt. Gov. Anthony Brown, who was tasked by the governor with overseeing the state's implementation of the federal health care reform law. The board of the Maryland Heath Benefit Exchange accepted Pearce's resignation during an emergency session Friday night. In a statement, Joshua Sharfstein, the state health secretary and board chairman, said Pearce "worked tirelessly and with tremendous dedication." Pearce, whose starting salary in 2011 was $175,000, will be replaced on an interim basis by Carolyn Quattrocki, a top adviser to Gov. Martin O'Malley. As state lawmakers grilled Sharfstein on Nov. 26 on why the health exchange was still broken, Pearce was on a week's vacation in the Cayman Islands. During the trip, she could not be reached by phone, email or text, the health department said Friday.

Go look at the outreach staff for her organization: http://www.mnsure.org/about-us/staff/. None of their backgrounds are the ones that I would hire for health insurance policies.
