Hmm, guess he isn't too busy these days.

Writing for Slate, Eliot Spitzer discusses the auto industry bailout. His solution? Let the Big Three fight it out to determine which two companies get funding. I wish that I knew more about this issue to comment on the merits of this idea, but I don't. However, upon reading the article, my initial thought was, "And what happens to that third company?" I'm also not sure about his notion of not needing a so-called "car czar," because it certainly seems as if he's auditioning for the role.

Any thoughts?

I have nothing but admiration for Pat Fitzgerald. The man is relentless.
