What about Eric Holder, Van Jones, Cass Sunstein, Janet Napolitano, Kathleen Sebelius, Anita Dunn, Carol Browner, Valerie Jarrett, Kevin Jennings, and Elizabeth Warren (to name 10)? We aren’t just voting for a President.
Believe whatever you want about Mitt. If these people are stupid enough to believe that Romney would populate his administration with avowed Communists, then God help us all.
It is arresting to imagine a Romney White House, inevitably filled with as many former Bain colleagues as each of his other public ventures have been: The PowerPoints, the 80-20 jargon, the clinical separation of decision-making from ideology, the detachment of those decisions from moral consequence, a persistent blind spot for people as people. It would represent the final ascension of a perfectly American type, one that has already remade the culture of business. I once asked a Bain colleague of Romney’s how Romney thought of his own core competence. “I think Mitt thinks he’s good at being Mitt Romney,” the colleague said.
Why would you think that Romney would appoint to his staff anyone different as president than he did as governor?
Romney and BHO are both left wing.
