>> I actually have to amend my criticism. Corker of TN The Corker plan was a pretty sensible approach. Cut pensions in half, bring union employee cost in line with other (non-union) automakers, etc. If his plan had been adopted as it was, I suspect it might have made it. I thought it was a reasonable approach to the problem. I agree. I think the plan needs to be tweaked here and there but I think he will play an important role come January during the restructuring of the auto companies. He has a strong entrepreneurial background that will come into good use during those talks.
