Ad Hoc Commitee reccos Excelsior

[ELA]

No, I am not surprised by the outcome. I am a bit surprised by the scoring. Now before everybody jumps up and says this is meaningless, which I do understand, what I am talking about is more the "appearences" and the "aspersions" this recommendation has created.

WHy were you surprised?
Have you actually looked over the resumes of the folks on this "committee" and checked out their qualifications to make such recommendations?
For some, its hysterical!!!
It was a puppet squad, and they got more free dinners out of this whole thing than anything else.
As BTW said Bomze or Steinbrenner? I mean, you knew where this was gonna go when it started(the committee), funny thing is that its so meaningless . Its non binding, and a new governor is coming in. Do you really think Spitzer cares what Pataki's guys think?

What I said was that I was not surprised by the outcome. The scores? Yes, a bit surprised. While I know this wasn't the creditors committee that sat over the Enron bankruptcy, puppet squad or not, like I said, I for one hope the recommendation is truly meaningless.

Now, in a horse race between Bomze and Steinbrenner, do we even have to talk about that? But it wasn't about those two in absolute terms. And no, of course I don't think Spitzer cares what Pataki's people think. But do you really want to have to be in this situation at all?

I do get everyone's points though.
