Good to know that they've identified a potential threat, and haven't been naive enough to think that he was up to any good.

Re: More Mr K versus GM whatnot

Am I a bad person because I so much so want Kirk Kerkorian to drop dead?

I think that everyone who likes GM thinks Kekorian needs to die. I sure do.

Well, to hear Tracinda tell it, GM's headed for the scrap heap if they don't merge with Renault-Nissan and put Ghosin as CEO.

Don't know about you, but if I knew that was the case for something I invested in, I wouldn't be going around trying to buy up even more shares.

This is a control and personality issue, not a "Doing what's best for GM" issue. Even Tracinda's own man on GM's board voted against the collaboration.

Chrysler shot his efforts to take over to hell & back. GM fortunately has Chrysler's experience with him in mind, and is chopping him off at the knees.
