I don't completely buy the notion that if GM goes into Bank-O that they will not be able to sell cars. First off what are they comparing this notion/scare tactic to. Are people going to be likely to buy their cars if we throw bail out money to them? I would not. If you have a friend on crack and he wants help do you give him more money and ask him to promise not to buy crack or do you drive him down to the rehab/Bank-O? After which scenario would you be more likely to trust him with your life, after he completes rehab or while he is trying to fight an addiction that is bigger than him by his own means and your money.
At this point I like most Americans believe that the answer is a "Pre-Packaged Bankruptcy Plan" that will kick out those that are not part of the solution but rather the problem and really protect the auto workers with a sustained conversion in US manufacturing.
At the same time I think that the American people need to remember the opinions and stances of our elected officials concerning this matter, because it will be our responsibility to determine if they are competent enough to retain their status as their terms end and new elections come about in the years to come.
