And what's worse . . . most of the troglodyte fuckers in the comments section would have gone along with this dumbass idea.
The non-profit R2P, Inc., chaired by former Utah Gov. Michael Leavitt and run by former General Motors chief financial officer Christopher Liddell, benefited from free rent and other federal support, and drew heavily from the business and consulting community Romney, a former consultant and private equity executive, knew so well.
Among the recommendations for the Romney administration:
Corporate-style training seminars were planned for appointees and nominees before the inauguration to teach management skills.
A plan to restructure White House operations to suit Romneys corporate management style, with clear deliverables.
Detailed flow charts delineating how information and decisions were disseminated through the administration to achieve unity.
Plans to evaluate Cabinet secretariess performance by systematically assessing the efforts of their departments in contributing to [Romneys] priorities and objectives, perhaps by a newly created deputy chief of staff for Cabinet oversight.
More than 100 detailed one-page project management sheets were in circulation at R2P headquarters by Election Day, charting the organizations progress and preparing for the run-up to inauguration. Movements for Romney, his wife Ann, and Vice President-elect Paul Ryan were heavily choreographed for the days following the election, and many campaign staffers were told to prepare to assume roles on the transition immediately following a victory. (All were guaranteed a job on either the transition or the inaugural committee.) A painstakingly prepared seating chart and floor plan was developed for Romney, his aides, and transition staff across three floors of the Mary E. Switzer Building in downtown Washington, ready for the rapid post-election expansion.
