I think Harpgirl is the only applicant worth supporting as she has demonstrated a keen sense of semantic duplicity and the ability to absorb extended tongue-lashings without protest; noting that the CEO is declining in years and is therefore likely to resprt to more and more tongue-lashings as his earlier capabilities decline, I suggest she would be the most appropriate candidate.

Additionaly, she is the best qualified to learn the art of tongue lashing from the CEO in anticipation of the time when nothing else will move him (as a recipient) to the fulfillment of his duties. Somehow I can't imagine the CEO accepting such treatment from any of the other candidates. Sorry, boys.

Management decisions like this are always hard, but we have to take long-term consequences into account. We must foresee the day when Viagra and possums are no longer adequate to stimulate the center's economy and bring about continued forward movement. If the CEO should ever fail to rise to the occasion, we may not be able to rectify the situation simply by using digital means. More fundamental talents will be called upon. A vote for Harpgirl is therefore a vote for the CEO's happy longevity.
