It's a good point, but... - New comment on Is Microsoft Recession Proof?.

Frankly, there is a much bigger issue for the future of Microsoft.

Schmidt is campaigning with Obama. If/when Obama wins he will make Schmidt CTO of the country. What then for MSFT?

Regardless of your other political beliefs, this is too important for MSFT as a whole. Who knows, if McCain wins he might "promote" Ballmer and we could get some real leadership around here.

I hate everything else about the GOP campaign and ticket, but since the Schmidt announcement, I'm gonna campaign/phonebank for them and donate to the RNC.

(It's probably a good point, but it's political lightning in a bottle, too, and could lead to an Apple-like discussion)
