At B&D, there was an oft used expression”CLT”.
That stood for “Career Limiting Transaction”:
A gaffe or mistake that was so consequential that it was virtually certain to bring a manager’s career progress to a screeching halt, never to be restarted.
In last night’s debate, Gov. Rick Perry became the poster child for CLTs.
Warning: Whether you like the guy or not, this vid is painful to watch.
