Head of DNC - choose a NON-Democrat

[DesEtoiles]

Choose a CEO. With a take-no-prisoners style.

The DNC is his "company" and it's his or her job to make it succeed. Let the policy wonks identify the policy and set goals. It's the CEO's job to MAKE IT HAPPEN.

We need a mercenary. Who is not wrapped up in it personally.

1. I wouldn't trust a non-Dem. Find a Dem CEO.

[Brundle_Fly]

6. STEVE JOBS @ APPLE.

but he'll never take it.

[Liberty Belle]

14. Can he build some Dem-friendly voting machines? ;-)

[janx]

2. We already have an MBA president. A CEO chair of the DNC

sounds pretty repulsive to me...

[lcordero]

3. No thank you

CEOs loot companies and run them into the ground.

[mazzarro]

4. Democratic party already is in the grips of corporate friendly

DLC and is thus drowning in its feckless continual movement to the ever shifting political center. I don't think a CEO will be good for the survival of the party at this time. The party needs someone that is not going to be another sellout to the corporations and the reThugs, someone with spine and vision and a strong committment to get the party back to its true principles.

5. Let's give him a golden parachute if he fails too....

....just like they do CEO's of failing corporations?

This is just a BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD idea.

7. I think Ken Lay is looking for a job!

[aquart]

8. What a worthless idea.

It's the same worthless idea which is wrecking the nation.

Completely disgusting in concept.

[wyldwolf]

9. Oprah? Madonna!!

[genius]

10. Michael Moore or Arianna Huffington or Eric Alterman.

These are the non-Democrats I trust. Anyone who suggests a Republican IS a Republican.

[Leilani]

11. Nope, he'd outsource we citizens

if we didn't make a profit.

I want to stay in Hawaii...with my luck, I'd get outsourced to Siberia.

12. You're kidding right?

The last thing we need is CEO. We need a hard core , left of center, outspoken Democrat.

13. If it -had- to be a CEO, I'd vote for the head of Costco. /EOM

15. Cleanup in Aisle 3!

Someone has spilled their brain...

:eyes:

[bitchkitty]

16. A non-Dem in charge of Dems. Yea, right. n/t

[autorank]

17. This makes so much sense...they'd never even consider it!

I like the idea of performance bonuses. Low base salary but high performance goals. Very cool!

I nominate Herbert D. Kelleher, CEO, Southwest Airlines

He started up competing against the big boys, beat them, and makes money year in and year out. He treats the employees very well and is well liked by all levels of the company. He serves refreshments (if you can call them that on SW) whenever he flies, which is quite frequently. He's from NJ and probably a Democrat. My man, Herb, for DNC Chairman.
