Laying off excess workers is NOT causing damage. It is how capitalism works.

The only reason 30,000 people got laid off is because she f'ed up the merger, and tried making both HP and Compaq something they were not.

Are you on her payroll or something? You seem to completely ignore facts and carry her water.

Certain CEO’s have a specialty in cutbacks and they’re hired for that reason.

After they f' up a merger, yeah, they're gonna cut 30,000 jobs and turn a company into something it wasn't intended to be ......

It was the dot-com bubble, everyone in the industry was shedding jobs, the ones that didn't, disappeared.

No, this was well after the dot com bubble. She laid off 30,000 people and invented the term "Right Shoring" which transferred 30,000 jobs (and more) to tech centers in India.

That's the part that you and Carly's supporters here on FR miss. She outsourced TO INDIA tens of thousands of US Jobs. GOOD PAYING Jobs.

If you're in favor of American's losing their high tech STEM jobs to cheap India labor, then keep supporting Carly Fiorina. She doesn't give a damn about you or anyone else. She collected her bonus largely through cutting expense (PEOPLE) and moving those jobs offshore.

I posit that CEO of Intel (world’s largest computer chip maker) knows more about the computer industry than any poster here including me.

Here is just a part of what Craig Barrett, the CEO of Intel said praising Carly…and I think he knows a bit more than most here, seeing as he has been through several CEO’s of HP.

“Today, HP is a stronger company because of Carly Fiorina’s bold action. Certainly some of this credit goes to current management, who capitalized on the changes Carly made. But it was Carly who shook up the status quo. She engineered the merger. She restructured the combined company. She positioned HP to gain market share, and she deserves credit for standing up to the naysayers and critics to achieve the positive end result.”

So what. So the head of Intel was smitten with Carly Fiorina.

Proves nothing. Here's why.

47% of the Country is smitten with Obama. Warren Buffet is smitten with Barack Obama. Jeffrey Immelt (GE) is smitten with Barack Obama.

What's Obama done other than destroy the country?

I rest my case.

You're right about one thing: there's a lot of people here on FR smarter than you. We know she doesn't have an ice cube's chance in hell of winning a single primary, much less become President of the United States.

She is nothing more than a foil to Hillary Clinton. A hired attack dog. She's playing the good wife role to the Republican Party. Big F'n Deal.

You got one thing right, there are a lot of posters on FR smarter than me, but you ain’t one of them.

I most certainly am much smarter than you, and my post #107 proves it.

It's ok, run along now....

I would like to see Ms. Fiorina run for the Senate again. She has residual name I.D. and money and unlike 2010, it’s possible she could benefit from a divisive ‘Rat primary won by a defective candidate.

I would as well. Ideally we’d have exactly 2 decent Senate candidates in Cali so we might get an R/R runoff. I’d settle for one decent candidate to rally behind. Instead we have a myriad of weak candidates, D/D runoff is very possible if this holds.
