Now while everyone berates and reviles Waggoner, IMHO he has tried to turn GM around and their has been a book about it's attempts to do so. The economy was to much to overcome.
The question is who and which Obamaton did this, and what dupe will they put in his place. My Guess is he didn't want to play ball with them.
Ok, I'll back off on Wagoner just a bit, but.... the bigger fear is why he is leaving and what will soon be announced.
I wonder if Kevl is using this forum as a sounding board?
Sorry, the Aztek should have ended his career right then and there.
As for Wagoner’s attempts to turn it around - too little, too late. Their latest idiocy was the Malibu, which was a credible competitor to the Camry - except for the fact that they wanted to you to *rent* the navigation system instead of buying it outright or putting a display unit in the car.
I agree with your assessment.
I don’t really see this as anything “good.”
The chess game for America is a high-stakes venture.
So before too many here go off on tangent, think about a few things first:
Banks trying to figure out how to give the bailout back.
Other Banks trying to avoid being forced into it.
FDIC insolvent.
Moffet quitting after 6 months at FM/FM.
AIG mess all around
Unable to fill treasury positions
And now a GM Exec. quits on the tails of the 0bama comments today?
Like some of these folks or hate them....they are learning very quickly what government money entails...and they don’t like it.
