Sen. Barbara Boxer lashed out at Republican presidential candidate Carly Fiorina on Friday, saying that the woman she defeated in 2010 is a “mean-spirited,” failed business leader who cared more about enriching herself than about working Americans.“Here is a woman who ran against me in the worst year Democrats ever had and we won in a landslide because the people of California didn’t want her to do to the country what she did to Hewlett-Packard,” Boxer said. “She’s the face of income inequality and the face of corporate greed…. She makes Mitt Romney look like a Democrat.” Romney was the GOP presidential nominee in 2012.
Fiorina’s campaign responded with a jab at Boxer. “California has the highest poverty rates in the nation under Barbara Boxer's policies. As president, Carly will challenge the status quo that has crushed Americans under the weight and corruption of this government,” said Fiorina spokeswoman Sarah Isgur Flores.
Boxer said Fiorina enriched herself as the chief of Hewlett-Packard, flying in private planes and buying a yacht as she oversaw the layoff of 30,000 workers, and sent jobs overseas. The senator pointed out that the value of H-P stock dropped sharply before Fiorina was fired. Fiorina has argued that she made difficult decisions that allowed H-P to survive the technology industry recession. Her track record at H-P became the centerpiece of Boxer’s campaign, which the Democrat won by 10 points. “She was tested in a Republican year running against me, who was considered very vulnerable, and she got slaughtered not because of me but because of her,” Boxer said. “Because of her lack of compassion and even caring about working people.” Read the rest at LA Times...

Running companies into the ground and coming out filthy rich is a big plus for Fiorina!
Btw, who has hired snarly Carly in the past 10 years?
Maybe unlike Trump she made so much money off her failures she doesn't have to do the worky thing anymore.
Babe didn’t get the memo about playing up Carly I guess.
Thus sayeth the senator from Silcon Valley and chief enabler of replacing American workers with cheaper H1B foreigners for companies like HP.
Carly has no business running for president.
Carly FioRino...in her OWN words!

Carly sold computers to Iran, illegally

“Good for Boxer letting everyone know how Snarly Carly works!!”
-—Exactly!
This is not defending Carly, who is everything Boxer claims and probably more, but coming from QUEEN BOXER..Ironic.
“That’s rich coming from a woman that backed the companies she has while in office.”
Yep, just like Nazi Peelousy saying she “abhors abortion”.
This is also like Hillary accusing Obama of being a non-natural born citizen or Fiona running against Boxer for the CA senate seat and saying she supported the DREAM act.
Democrats & their RINO buddies looking for votes or their next fix lie like crack whores and bear rugs.
“Income inequality.” And how much is Boxhead worth? Like the Dims “war on women” charge, these sophomoric slogans are all this bankrupt RICO outfit can come up with.
Well, Hillary had to play Carly endorsement for Hillary 2016
No, Babs... she lost in 2010 because the majority of voters in your wretched state prefer to be chained to the floor of the socialist-progressive plantation.
Boxer calling anybody “mean-spirited” is almost as ironic as Boxer calling anybody “stupid”.
I choose neither. It feels so weird that earlier today I made the same comment about Carly - that she cares mostly about herself and not the American people. She is power hungry.
Wow.. some serious underlying fandom of Boxer. Never thought I’d see THAT here in FR.
NO NO BOXER!!!
Wait until they finish using her against Trump.
Just trying to keep it honest. I praised Fiorina for being a passionate female voice against the atrocities Planned Parenthood commits. But as a leader of the free world, because of her business experience, instead of Trump? That's silly.
Besides, I'm just bein' a gal, enjoying it, when two women I'm not to crazy about get in a cat fight.
LMAO, I hear ya. I won’t say it, but I am smiling.
Boxer , the rich well-connected Marin housewife who got into politics by being - well, a rich Marin housewife. I was livng there when she did this.
FIorina - A modest background, and rose from secretary to CEO simply on merits. Boxer has no merits.
