and these opinions are based on what? this person has taken a pretty good beating on these boards over the years but she has an immpecable resume and her skill in human resources is well documented... i would not be suprised if she is on the short list....

Maybe I was wrong about Sideshow Bob..

Maniacal Meg would be far worse.

This most be tough on you wdw cast members to see someone who hardly came to your parks and gave you the respect you deserve and visit and see how things are. I think you oglet you should put your name in for the running then move the ca office to Florida and ignore Disney land like iger did to Disney world.

I vote for Pete Werner to replace Iger. Then we'd see some real improvement!!

I believe that because her first job wasn't selling popcorn on Main Street, she was perceived as an amusement park outsider, thus her ability to run same adequately, was pre-judged. There were others who had more direct theme park experience, that she bi-passed in her climb up the ladder, which also caused some consternation. Usually in the corporate world, it's the bean counters that get pushed up the ladder ahead of the front line people, because they're the ones who are perceived as having what it takes to keep Wall Street happy.

Meg is not part of Disney's "management team" http://corporate.disney.go.com/corporate/management_team.html

Odds are it will be Staggs or Rasulo with the "loser" likely leaving Disney to run some other company.
