No, I mean that Gorbachev was instructed to play different cards. He wasn't pushing his own agenda, but the KGB's. Really, no one in the Kremlin has any real power to wield. There is no government in Moscow, per say. It's actually just one giant espionage ring, with the main players in the "government" being only central to/subservant to the KGB higher-ups.
Anyway, I see this plan in existence. It has not, however, been given much attention, and that's going to lead to a big kick in the ass in the future.
Sad that Golitsyn, who had a glimpse into the inner workings of the KGB, tried to help(he named the highest ranking CIA and MI5 agents as KGB agents; I wouldn't be surprised if some of them are still manning their posts today), but no one listened.
And for the Eastern Europeans, don't be so quick to praise your "democracies." It's no surprise that most of the candidates running for seats are former Communist Party members, in your respective republics. There's a reason for that. And you'll soon find out what that is.

I have to say, though, Gorbachev's political perestroika was a smart move, as it trimmed the beaurocracy a bit, deleted some of the beaurocratic layers that Breznhev's group put in place, and aliviated the strain on economy a bit.
Gorbachev's economic perestroika, however, was a disaster. Opening the doors to capitalism was the dumbest move ever, as it allowed foreign capital to fly into the Soviet Union, thus devalueing the ruble.
Funny thing, as I remember, you would work a state job, and then, when you went to buy goods, they wouldn't accept your currency, because they wanted European or American currency! and vice versa. It was so confusing and so laughable.
