We could ask Senator Frank, but would we understand the answer? Could we even concentrate on his bad speech without becoming hypnotized by his slobbery? How many seconds would it take before we weren’t sure what he said, but were relatively sure it was a crock?

You gotta remember this guy is the brains behind the Detroit Lions.

Not to pick on bluecon, but this is not the first time that many have gotten this one wrong.

Worst was Ashton Kutcher on Bill Maher’s “Real Time” complaining that “why should Ford get any money” because “he” doesn’t know the first thing about running a football team.

Folks outside of automotive know appallingly little about the industry.

Q.E.D.

“Only if the world implodes as we know it.”

So, July-ish then?

The more I hear the industry wanks proclaiming figures over 10MM, the less seriously I believe any of them have any clue what’s really happening.

If they hunker down for an 8MM environment, then maybe, just maybe…
