WALLACE: Here was Hillary Clinton this week. Take a look.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

HILLARY CLINTON (D), PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE: I’m aware, I may not be the youngest candidate in this race, but I have one big advantage. I’ve been coloring my hair for years.

(LAUGHTER & CHEERS)

(END VIDEO CLIP)

WALLACE: Ms. Fiorina, what do you think of Hillary Clinton?

FIORINA: Well, first of all, setting the accent aside, I think that was kind of a cute line. I color my hair, too. I’m happy to have hair, since I didn’t for a period after battling cancer.

Carly Fiorina’s conversion from Hillary Clinton fan to fervent critic

By Ruth Marcus

EXCERPT

In 2010, the then-GOP Senate nominee went all middle-school-cafeteria on her Democratic opponent’s hairdo. “God, what is that hair? Sooo yesterday,” Fiorina, already miked up, commented, quoting an aide’s assessment. Two years earlier, in the makeup room at ABC’s “This Week” with me, Fiorina said something that, at the time, was mildly interesting, but is now revelatory. It was May 2008, close to the end of the long primary battle between Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton, and we were discussing the two Democratic contenders.

At which point Fiorina, then a campaign surrogate for presumptive GOP nominee John McCain, offered some unprompted praise for Clinton: If Fiorina hadn’t been backing McCain, she told me, she would have been for Clinton.

“That’s off the record,” Fiorina immediately added.

Former Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina is leaning heavily on financial support from deep-pocketed donors in Silicon Valley and across California in her long-shot presidential bid.

Famed venture capitalist Tom Perkins and former Intel CEO Paul Otellini are among the wealthy donors that cut checks for Carly for America, the super PAC supporting Fiorina’s candidacy. The mid-year filing deadline for super PACs is Friday and the list of Carly for America donors was first shared with CNN.

Perkins, a former HP board member long described as having pushed for Fiorina’s ouster from the tech company in 2005, gave $25,000 to the super PAC. Otellini cut a $5,000 check.

The largest donation to the Fiorina super PAC — close to $1.6 million — came from Jerry Perenchio, the former CEO of Univision and national finance co-chairman for John McCain’s 2008 presidential campaign with deep ties to California.

Ha ha ha....kind of like Trump's "Look at that face!", to the Rolling Bones reporter was *off the record*?

NOTHING is off the record, Snarly Carly :-/
