Ahh... yet another RINO who will be right at home with her Dem buddies.

Except she's not going to win, because DeVore is running and he's a real conservative.

GO HOME DIABLOs, NO ONE LIKES YOU.

Darn, she is running as a Republican too. Hope she at least is not a RINO.

Don't bother using that damn joke if you're going to be such a lazy ass. It is not funny, it is just retarded.

Sure, because "real conservatives" do oh so well in statewide races in the People's Republic of California. Good luck with that.

She is IronTom. Big time. I've already written to Rush, Beck, Hannity, and Malkin to sound the alarm on this one.

One look at her website, especially her blog and 'one woman' initiatives, and it's obvious that she's a bleeding heart feminist who can't wait to fork over my tax dollars to poor 'disadvantaged' lazy people who can't be bothered to get a job because, hey, they've got some weed or crack or meth that's not gonna smoke itself buddy!

She's a vile RINO harpie and needs to be off the ballot ASAP. I hope the RNC heads don't back her, she'd be a disaster for the party.

Because she single-handedly destroyed HP. I know this sounds crazy, but HP used to actually crank out some quality hardware. She cranked the "OUTSOURCE...EVERYTHING" dial up to 11 for every part of the company she could, laid off every engineer she could find, then soaked in bonus after blood soaked bonus. Then when it was clear her slash-and-burn business acumen was tanking the company's image in the IT world, she engineered the disastrous Compaq merger.

And when the board finally had enough and tossed her on her ass, they did so with many millions of dollars to cushion her fall.

In conclusion, fark Carly Fiorina.

I read that twunt's book, actually only made it through the first 100 pages when I had to murder a gypsy just reclaim my sanity.

The whole thing seemed to be about how wonderful she was, yet she was so persecuted because she's a woman. Through all the mean-spirited sexism, she succeeded. From birth on, she's been fighting sexism. When that guy blew a load in her mouth and refused to pay... sexism. When that man fired her for letting the company burn... sexism.

When news stories would break about her total failure, it was really just the men trying undermine her awesomeness and womanhood.

When news stories would break about her successes, it was really just her awesomeness and womanhood being recognized over the gnashing of teeth of the sexist men.

The remainder of that book is now in my 'stranded' bag in the car... if I get stuck or stranded, I gotta have something for kindling or toilet paper.

blackminded: she engineered the disastrous Compaq merger.

The best ever is her wanting to get PwC for $18B (This is all IIRC), but they could not agree on terms, so then they got Compaq. Now, they did this so they could go toe to toe with IBM's Global Services, OK fine. The thing is, had the woman been patient with her plans to redesign HP, she could have picked up PwC one year later for around $3.5B. Which is what IBM did. I've no doubt she is a very smart woman, but she did a very poor job at HP.

I heard the clip on the radio from this chick. It was along the lines of "the last thing you do when someone has a spending problem is to give them more money" as a reference to the spending by the federal government. At first glance, that seems like good old fashioned common sense, except the idiots from the GOP think that by taking away income you'll curb spending when you don't have any rules in place about credit card usage. Stupid, stupid, stupid. Fiscal responsibility means an end to credit - make sure every bit of new spending is compensated adequately with additional income. That is how you pay down the debt. Not by lowering taxes and hoping magically government will shrink by the same amount. This chick is just another moran whose "aw shucks" simpleton rhetoric will garner far too many votes and once against show how dumb the average voter is.
