The Ringo Effect?

Is his comment at the end about how Pfizer has met with all three candidates and is confident that all three recognize the important role pharmaceuticals and pfizer will play in healthcare reform to be understood that Pfizer now essentially owns all three candidates, or that all three candidates will do for Pfizer with the Medicare Drug benefit did for the industry and company, or does it mean that they're trying to meet with all three to grease wheels and make the trauma of a non-Bush administration as minimal as possible by getting a place on the inside (political/symbolic whipping boy only) instead of the outside (literal whipping boy victim)?

I already know that McCain's advisers and staff are owned by Pfizer and therefore that McCain will be Bush Jr. Hillary has proven herself time and again a liar who can't be trusted and if Kindler is giving her money he's doing it only because he knows something about her that we don't-- and that doesn't bode well for non-pharmaceutical CEO Americans. I'm clinging to any hope I can find that Obama (who hasn't yet taken any money from corporate political action committees or corporate lobbyists) would actually be something different. When I hear comments like this from Kindler, however, I don't know how much of it means that Obama is also in Kindler's corner or if it means that Kindler is just being his typical deceptive self for his own purposes/interests.

Any thoughts?

Talk about running for the HILLS!!..a town meeting in
memphis Tennessee!.. Pretty soon
there will only be rumors around HQ
( like an elvis siting)..that they saw Kindler at 235.
Was he afraid of holding a town meeting in NYC with a million angry shareholders?
You can"t run forever JEFF. People will eventually find out that you have no real Plan. This is remininiscent of OBAMAS cancellation of a North Carolina debate.IS he voting "present" at the board meetings too? Does he think if no one hears his plan or lack of plan he's safe ?
Refusing to address the real issues
will never solve the problem.
