“The White House staff is similar to a holding company” read one PowerPoint slide, which would have been presented to President-elect Romney as part of an expansive briefing on the morning after Election Day. It went on to list three main divisions of the metaphorical firm: “Care & Feeding Offices,” like speechwriting, “Policy Offices,” like the National Security Council, and “Packaging & Selling Offices,” like the office of the press secretary.

..........................

• 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 Romney’s corporate management style, with clear deliverables.
• Detailed flow charts delineating how information and decisions were disseminated through the administration to achieve “unity.”

If I were in Romney's epic fail shoes, I would have buried that so deep nobody would ever find it.

See Jane.

See Jane run.

See Mitt.

Mitt is President.

Look at President Mitt in his office.

President Mitt has a telephone.

President Mitt calls the army.

President Mitt starts a war with Iran.

See Mitt run.

etc.
