#1 No shocker there; their cars (except for the minivans) are appallingly mediocre. (Ever taken a good long look at a Dodge Caliber?) The bailout was a band-aid on a severed artery.

#3 Crisis Motors is toast. Dems ought to worry about whether Government Motors can make it to 2010.

#4 Won't be toast until the UAW is done sucking every single penny out of it.

Then of course they will leave the drained and dried remains for any creditors stupid enough to still invest in it (sadly the US Taxpayer).

#5 Frankly the "American" car buyer is a Japanese, Korean or German car buyer. The "Americas" gave up on domestic manufactured automobles in the 1980s,this "American Auto Bail-out" is a Democratic party farce, they could have said "NO, this is not change" but did not have the guts to say NO. So like it or not this failure rests with the last guy with his hands in the till. --- Go ahead name him.

As far as I can see the nails are in the coffins of "Crisis and Government Motors" -

Real Americans buy FORDS !
