Carly Fiorina is one of the most insipid and least inspiring executives in the nation. Famously, when she was fired, spontaneous parties broke out throughout the HP labs in Cupertino.

Before Carly HP was a world class instrument maker and their brand was associated with bulletproof products. Post Carly they were famous for cheap but crappy printers and computers.

McCain: global warming baloney, corrupt CEO’s financing his campaign, amnesty for illegals... but the we have to vote for him, right?

I mean we have to, right? Hugh Hewitt says so! Everyone here says so. I mean he might apoint conservative judges, like Ruth Ginsberg who he voted for .. oh, wait, Ruth’s not a Conservative??

Never mind. Maybe he’ll put Hillary on the top court as a final “bipartisan maverick compromise, reaching across the aisle.. “

This can not be true.
If JM is having Carly as part of his campaign, the woman who single handily nearly destroyed one of the best companies ever as someone who is advising him on the economy - I am done - he will not get my vote ever.
It shows he is just as big a buffoon as Barry or Hillary.

From the article:

Fiorina is also working as a McCain surrogate partly because she hasn't landed another executive job since she bounced from HP.

No need to rush into anything....

This article was a fairly typical pile of Newsweek garbage. He was bashing traditional conservative Republicans with his praise of Fiorina. But in the end he did let the cat out of the bag, and that is Fiorina is in it entirely for herself, and if she cannot get gainful employment, then she would rather spend her time unemployed time in the highest possible media profile which is bag girl for the RINO relic.

In her six years at HP, Carly's stock underperformed the SP500 by 30% and underperformed the Technology sector by almost 20%.

Newsweek calls Carly “hypercompetent.”

And, McCain hired her.

Three reasons to pray this woman does not end up as Secretary of the Treasury.

Carly Fiorina! First she ran Bell Labs into the ground, and then she ran HP into the ground. Who is McVain’s energy adviser going to be: Amory Lovins?

“McCain’s Economic Brain - Why Carly Fiorina is so important to his campaign”

So who is his brain on illegal immigration?

This year's Presidential campaign seems to be a competition to incompetence.
The candidate who can come up with the dumbest policies and cohorts wins!

I had friends who worked at HP. They were not fans of this woman, whose biggest accomplishment was apparently destroying HP’s corporate culture.

“One of the most important figures in the presidential campaign this fall is a controversial, hypercompetent blonde. She has blazed new paths, is always on message, and has written a best-selling memoir.”

Ok, is this person doing drugs or what?? It's quite clear this clown did not own HP stock when Carly Fiorina ditched the company.

For God's sake, please tell me she is not providing economic advice to any republican!

Hypercompetent; hypercompetent? Gotta be snorting coke by the truck load! Oh, I just noticed the article was in Newsweek - this explains everything.

Why is it such a plum to have her? She nearly ruined 3 of the U.S.’ foremost companies.

If Newsweek is singing her praises, she can’t be good for conservatives or the Republican Party. Full marks to her PR person though.

I got an email from fiona. It was a survey on the issues that most concerned me. there was nothing in it on illegal immigration.

fiona botched hp. she’ll botch everything she touches in pubbie land.

her chief skill is sucking up to the powers that be.

she’s the kind that will show up at Davos and sing “we are with you” to the rulers of europe who have even more contempt for their people than american elites.

Fiorina? Ha!

On the positive side, McCain did recruit Don Luskin from Ron Paul’s campaign. IMHO, he is the best supply side economist in the world today. I’ve been following his work for around 10 years. I could not think of a better person to talk economic and fiscal policy.
