Carly thinks like a liberal in many ways. But there are a few key issues where her voice could be valuable. I certainly don’t want her to win or even to be on the ticket.

Dude. You know nothing about HP, the economy or the dot com bubble. Other than that you are right on.

I hear that bandied about all the time. What company did Carly run into the ground?

Surely it can't be HP because last time I checked, they had over $110,000,000,000 in revenue (FY 2014) and have over 300,000 employees. They are also #19 on the Fortune 500.

So I'm wondering what company got driven into the ground?

Carly was the CEO of HP from 1999 to 2005. Adjusting for stock splits and dividends, the share price for HP stock was $24.50 in January 1999, and was $25.13 in December 2005. Considering all of the turmoil in the market after the tech bubble burst, 9-11 and the start of the Iraq war, I wouldn’t exactly call that running the company into the ground. And I say that as one who was laid off by Carly and HP in 2001...

Just out of curiosity, how many did Trump run into the ground?
