Re: GM Finally Steps Up

...Now, when there is so much confusion in the market place and among investors, is the time for Wagoner to step up, create a vision for the months ahead, and suggest how GM and the rest of the auto industry are going to meet this looming challenge...
Rick hasn't stepped up to the plate for the six or so years he has been head of GM, so I'm pretty clear tomorrow won't be that much more inspiring a day for the Rickster, either.

And I think Alex, in writing this article, surprisingly overstates GM's influence in today's automotive market. I'm not so certain what his motivation was.

I know that you know that Detroit is primarily responsible for Detroit's failure, Ambalanche. The media may or may not want Detroit to succeed-I don't know if that's really true-but Detroit can blame itself that it has no real compelling vehicles on the lot during times of high gasoline prices. Like Toyota and Honda do.
