  1. Recall: Gateway went from 700 U.S. employees in 1991, year Snyder joined, to 10,000 in 1997, year he resigned. Mostly manufacturing workers.
  2. Question for @OneToughNerd, who's encouraging hiring veterans. Was it a priority in Gateway's 90s expansion? If not, what were the barriers?

  11. @chucktodd Interesting to see % of voters w/ "very little" confidence in auto industry is sinking. Positive auto headlines reversing image?
  12. Bill Ford Jr. on Ford return to investment-grade: "The Blue Oval is back." -- in more ways than one.
  13. Ford returns to investment-grade from Moody's. Ends 65-month period w/ assets, incl Blue Oval, pledged as collateral: on.freep.com/KwlU2k
  14. GM's advertising exodus illuminates Facebook's big challenge: convincing brands to pay on.freep.com/JPsWnz
