Edsel sales were really not that bad. Supposedly McNamara was using it to ruin some of his rivals at Ford. He very cleverly was able to use the results of corporate politics to inhibit the brand and then pin the blame on his rivals Crusoe and Breech. After they were gone he became the top dog. So much for the Harvard Business School's ethics program. Such behavior is not in the best interests of customers and stockholders alike.

Not that I like the Edsel, but just because I don't like something they are doing now doesn't mean I am going to post it on junktube.
