I thought blog "pimping" was when the item was excerpted and you had to go to the blog to read the rest. It appears that this blogger has posted the whole thing, leaving us a CHOICE to visit the blog or not. So in fairness, not a pimp.
Technically you’re correct. But this “article” really is just a personal rant, a vanity that gives the appearance of being a legitimate column. Instead, it’s a political hit piece by an advocate of Carly Fiorina that he’s published on his personal blog, and then shared here.
It would have been more accurate for him to simply label this as a vanity or rant, and written it here, rather than to try to give it some air of legitimacy by pointing to an outside website (his personal blog).

You beat me to it. I agree. He even posted it in the right forum (Bloggers & Personal).
