Republican presidential candidate Carly Fiorina and Democratic front-runner Hillary Rodham Clinton will cross paths Wednesday in South Carolina. And the Republican — the only woman among the vast GOP field — will try to show up Clinton by holding a regular old press conference…

“Carly Fiorina is speaking in downtown Columbia, SC on Wednesday. And guess what? So is Hillary Clinton,” Fiorina spokeswoman Sarah I. Flores wrote in an e-mail Tuesday.

Clinton will be inside the Columbia hotel shortly thereafter, holding another in her series of campaign roundtables.

“Our events tomorrow are all open to the press. And by open press, we mean we’ll actually take questions,” Flores wrote.

She is a woman of independent wealth, not this corrupt whore witch Hillary. This is the war on women by liberals.

Wonder if anyone will ask her about her stellar performance at HP.

Yeah, I ‘bothered’ to read it. Total BS.

She failed miserably at HP. I was being sarcastic.

SO you are more knowledgeable about computer industry than CEO of Intel? Your net worth must be in Billions since you possess so much knowledge!

From The Hill Newsletter...

Carly Fiorina is capitalizing on simultaneous campaign swings through South Carolina with Hillary Clinton to pan the Democratic front-runner’s tenuous relationship with the press.

The Republican presidential hopeful spoke to reporters outside the same hotel where Clinton planned to host a roundtable with minority women small-business owners less than two hours later.

She criticized Clinton as a career politician and hit her on foreign policy and equal pay.

“Hillary Clinton is the personification of the professional political class,” Fiorina said. “We need a nominee who can ask her these questions.”

Fiorina shrugged off the suggestion that she followed Clinton to the Palmetto State, asserting her trip had been planned for weeks around a luncheon with the state Republican Legislative Caucus.

“Perhaps she’s following me. I have never been following Mrs. Clinton,” she said.

By shadowing Clinton’s event and welcoming reporters with open arms, Fiorina and her staff sought to create a contrast between the two female candidates.

Check the record; t’s all on the record.

And you can also do some personal research by finding people who have worked there before AND during CF’s tenure there. Get the story from those who lived through it.

You mean those who were laid off at HP? Oh yes, a very reliable source indeed. Of course they have absolutely no axe to grind! /S

Excerpt From Breitbart>>>

After host Andrea Mitchell stated, “You could also argue that a lot of Republicans in the White House and in Congress supported those policies –” Fiorina responded, “absolutely, that’s right. And by the way, every single Republican candidate has been asked about their vote for the war in Iraq. The one person who’s not been asked that question, because she won’t answer the question is Hillary Clinton. One person who was on the job in 2011, when Iraq started to fall apart, was not the Republican nominees or — candidates for president, it’s Hillary Clinton. she hasn’t been asked yet. What would she do now in Iraq?”

Anyone employee who has first hand knowledge of the time before and during her time at HP.

At any rate, believe what you want. At least Carly ‘does her own laundry’. That’ll rally the troops!

Certainly was not enamored of Fiorina when she (1)virtually destroyed HP and (2) ran a lackluster Senate campaign. But she is showing herself as totally unafraid to fight in her presidential campaign. Go Carly!

There is something serious embarrassing about Fiorina tagging along sniping at Clinton. This woman-on-woman thing she is trying makes her campaign a pathetic sideshow—as if she had even as much chance as Christie... Fiorina should quit.

“There is something serious embarrassing about Fiorina tagging along sniping at Clinton. This woman-on-woman thing she is trying makes her campaign a pathetic sideshow—”

I disagree. This turn about where demonratic operatives show up at every stop where a Republican speaks and shout out lies in often vile, obscene and vulgar limericks.

It is time and past time that conservatives stopped being nice guys. If the Hiladog won’t answer questions then Carly Fiorina should be at every stop.

Satan’s Prom Queen should be asked why she has a personal animosity to heterosexual people.

Regarding the Senate campaign, she was recovering from cancer, and had just lost a step-daughter the previous year. As for HP, she was definitely a bold leader. The 30,000 jobs were mostly jobs that were not needed because HP had absorbed Compaq. That move certainly hurt those workers, but HP today is a hugely successful company. A lot of that has to do with the groundwork that was laid with the acquisition of Compaq under Florida.

Read this for a real perspective of how successful the merger was. This is from CRN, an industry group of resellers. http://www.crn.com/news/mobility/231601009/the-hp-compaq-merger-partners-reflect-10-years-later.htm

I really like her. She’s smart and savvy and she’s the perfect antidote against Hillary, on so many levels. I don’t like her because she’s a woman, but that helps to insulate her against the attacks that you know will be coming against any male candidate who dares to challenge Hillary. Remember Rick Lazio and how he was destroyed for simply walking across the debate stage to ask Hillary to sign a pledge to cut out the negative advertising?

I get furious when I see that Clinton Face on her “listening” Tour. She tries to use an angelic face to fool everyone. Can’t stand her constantly moving head Up and down for agreement, sometimes side to side for disagreement.
Hope Her “royal bobblehead” loses.

Again, you confirm my point. Fiorina is a pathetic sideshow.

The employees didn’t like her because she got rid of some seriously dead wood and made the corporate environment competitive. I worked in Santa Rosa, had occasion to work as a contractor at the HP offices, and knew a lot of the employees - they had such a “caring” culture that non-performers were never fired, employees loved the company but didn’t take their jobs seriously, and there was, I think, pressure against excelling because it made you stand out in the crowd and made them look bad.

Fiorina was widely described as a b**** because she did exactly what Walker and Snyder did on a government level: they broke up an entrenched, protected culture of expensive mediocrity and redundancy. This happens in corporations, too, and it’s never fun when somebody comes along and shakes it up.

Of course, being a woman, she’s described as a b****, while Walker and Snyder are described as hard-nosed managers. Well, it’s true, sometimes they’re called right-wing fanatics, but then, so is Fiorina.

Maybe what we actually need, however, is a b****.
