I do not know. But I have heard from several friends who are in the party apparatus that we need an unassailable POTUS candidate who can negate the GM/Chrysler story and demonstrate global management and superb financial skills.
Mulally fits the bill nicely.
I have been a Palin/Ryan fan for about two years, but would back Mulally in a heartbeat. He is a Catholic version of Mitt with a better track record and much more global experience.
I can't see that being a major issue in 2012. It should be, people should be in jail, but it won't be. Does anyone know his positions on anything?
