Then the polticos calling this a 'smear' campaign is even worse--the guy is obviously not CIO of a fortune 500 potential at this point in his career--let alone the country. I guess you can say our government IT is so bad he can't hurt it...yikes. Sadly, this is why I bury my head in the technology and business environment sand.
