The good ol'boy network has amazing tentacles ... because Vanguard owns stock in companies, it gets to help select Boards of Directors in those companies ... During the year ending June 30, 2005, it voted in elections involving more than 20,000 directorships at nearly 4,000 companies. So, certainly Vanguard scratches SAICs back ... and, Alito scratches Vanguards back ... and .............etc.
