The only winner of the GM bailout was Obama 2012

D saved GM. It probably gave Obama Ohio at less than 200,000 votes out of 5 plus million cast.

Looking back, the GM bailout was a partisan band aid.

What did U.S. taxpayers get for their $11.2 billion bailout of GM? Abo.ut te.

The lower and middle sections of the market are dominated by Asia, and the high end of the market by Europe: Mercedes, Audi, BMW. GM can't compete with the Honda Civic at its price point or with the Audi A7 at its price point.

It isn't winning in the dino-juice-powered market, in the electric-car market, or in the hybrid market, either: GM is not exactly what you would call a nimble corporation.

GM has a much healthier business selling trucks and SUVs, a business that it now will focus its resources on - as it should have done long ago.

The GM bailout was a classic case of government picking winners and losers.
