I'm not sure why some of you are making Altobello's murder a Connie decision. To me it's obvious that Michael co-opted her to kill an acknowleged enemy.

As far as Michael making Vinnie the Don, Vinnie was the only blood male relative left, and as Connie said, "You're the only one left who has my father's strength."

"Generosity. That was my first mistake."
