salliekrawcheck.jpgEarlier this week, the Post announced Sallie Krawcheck’s intent to be named Bank of America CEO, based on the statement she made to CNBC that she’s “fully engaged” in her gig as head of wealth management. SK has yet to come out and admit “you got me,” and Charlie Gasparino has already thrown in his two cents to say that “this broad” would be a terrible choice for the job, but fuck that noise, the Post is going full speed ahead on this one. Krawcheck wants this thing, bad. You might as well be blind if you can’t see that. Today they claim that the Kraw’s “campaign” for Bank of America’s top job “may have gotten a big boost.”


And that boost was: a shareholder stating that the board should pick an outsider to run the bank (as opposed to one of these guys).

Yesterday, one of BofA’s largest and most vocal investors, Finger Interest Number One, submitted a filing to the Securities and Exchange Commission urging the Charlotte, NC bank to tap fresh blood to run it. Embattled CEO Ken Lewis is exiting the company by year-end.
“The current management team has presided over the misallocation of capital and massive shareholder dilution over the past year,” read the SEC filing.

    If they’re looking at outsiders, you know who they should consider? Jamie Dimon.

    Sallie CEO? No. But here’s what I would do for her, I’d bend her over my knee and spank her bare ass and then show what she really needs to do to get the job. Old school glass ceiling shit – know what I mean bitches?

    She’s just doing this to get her uncle off and so her aunt gets all of Brooke Astor’s estate. It’s described there on page 421 in the “Sellout,” coming to bookstores near you on November 3. Order it before it too “sells out.”

    Excerpts from Sellout are set to appear in Il Paisano – The Journal of the Italian-American Male (October/November, ISBN 89760005, Rego Park Press).

    A bottle of Boone’s says that if Krawcheck gets passed over, she jumps ship to Handbridge Capital.

    Sir Finger sounded pretty smart and serious on FBN today about Krawcheck but it doesn’t sound like a true endorsement http://liz.blogs.foxbusiness.com/2009/10/08/bac-critic-to-fbn-krawcheck-ok-but-go-outside-for-ceo/
