There’s A Possibility Corzine Will Maybe Take Over At Bank Of America (Though Not If Dick Bové Has Anything To Say About It)

By Bess Levin

Picture 18.pngJohn Carney reports he’s hearing that Jon Corzine’s staff is “already prepping to take over at Bank of America.” This strikes us as slightly premature on the staff’s part, as, Carney goes on to say, “there haven’t been any formal talks” between JSC and the Bank of America board. (Also: why would Papa Bear’s employees, as in his employees while Governor, assume they’d be going with him to BAC?). If it’s true though, and this really does look like it’s going to happen, J.Co will have to first deal with Dick Bové.


As you know, the hormonal and highly strung analyst was deeply upset by the “brilliant” Ken Lewis being unfairly stripped of his post at Bank of America, whose success unparalleled skills as a “visionary and tactician.” We’d assumed she’d gotten over the upset in the past five weeks but apparently, not so much. Not sure how we missed this but Divé said yesterday that the obvious replacement for Ken Lewis? Is Ken Lewis. So the claws are fucking out and it sounds like anyone who wants this job is going to have to get through Boves first. Which will be difficult, ’cause she’ll be scratching your eyes out.

    Carney, you racist homo, stop making things up just to get attention. Go back to the MePa district!

    Dick Bove is a fucking joke. If Corzine’s D-party connections are the only thing that will give this rotten corpse of a bank a chance.

    Dick Bove is a fucking joke. Corzine’s Democratic party connections are the only thing that will give this rotten corpse of a bank a chance.*

    @6 It’s ready to go but I haven’t yet decided when I’m going to pull the trigger. Could be Monday, could be later in the week. The king is at no one’s beck and call.

    I’m going with Carney is likely right. I am sure his staff does want to work at higher paying executive jobs at BofA. But not so sure JC does.
    The govt funded bank could use his Dem contacts and hey what does Corzine care how much he gets paid. Sounds like a good fit.

    Corzine to BAC? I am hearing bells ringing. Is it SKF making a successful retest of the low? Disclosure: long SKF
    I also heard Chazzie say he was humping his book. Calling Dr. Freud, Dr. Larry, Dr. Curly…
    Makes me think of Amanda.

    Corzine does car-wrecks not train-wrecks. No deal.
