Mary Burke's Cabinet

Let us look at the possibility of a Mary Burke victory. 

We already know some of her track record--no strategic plan, no success whatever as Doyle's Sec/Commerce, and labeled as "a disaster" by another Doyle-ite.

Not good.

And it gets worse!!

...Burke apparently was fired by her own family following steep overseas financial losses and plummeting morale among Burke’s European sales staff, multiple former Trek executives and employees told Wisconsin Reporter....

Well, yah.  Anyone experienced at reading between the lines knew that she had been shitcanned. although it is VERY uncommon in family-held companies.

...The former employee, who asked not to be identified for fear of reprisal from the Burke family, said Mary Burke was made to return to Wisconsin and apologize to a group of about 35 Trek executives for her treatment of employees and for the plummeting European bottom line.

Managers in Europe used to call Burke “pit bull on crack” or “Attila the Hun,” one source said.

In fact, the European sales-force was in all-out revolt over this dame's "management."  It became a question of canning the Golden Girl or losing the sales-force--and Goldilocks lost.

“She is very divisive, very opinionated, but she’s not smart enough to have the right opinion,” Ellerman said. “But she’s a Burke, and she got to do whatever the hell she wanted.”

So.

Who's fool enough to work in Burke's Cabinet?

Heh.
