Put him in the VA spot. Let him clean house like it was a Bain Capital acquisition. He could end his public service life a hero instead of a loser, and quite frankly he is one of the best guys for a job like that.
Azcap few commented on this recommendation but I think it is brilliant. It's not just his performance at Bain but also his role in salvaging the 2002 Utah Winter Olympics, an admirable feat in which his detractors still try to diminish his accomplishment.
I wonder if he would take the job. It's not going to be easy to clean out that Stygian stable.
