"That statement was made as a vision of where we would be after four years of a McCain administration, wasn't it?"

Perhaps that's correct, yet begs the question - what does it mean to him to have the border "under control"?

And yes, that woman has no place in the White House. I suspect he's just trying to appear 'with-it' and 'not-sexist' by having her there - in other words, she's there because she's a woman, kinda like B. Hussein is only there because he's black (even though he's only 4% black and 42% Arab, but I digress).

Wow--ya mean after 3 years since she was ousted, it has almost reached the stock price when she took over?

Mighty impressive! I'm sure the long term investor is really pleased with that performance. /s

Here's a better HPQ chart -- one that shows what happened under her watch.

Doncha know? He'd have the "border state governors" "Certify" that the borders are secure. You know--kinda like when Arnold tells Californians the budget is "balanced."

I'm sure we can rely on Richardson, Perry, Napolitano and Arnold to do the right thing. /s

The GOP has a destructive streak--they don't think they can sell ideas and favor "celebrity" candidates these days. Unfortunately, Carly is a self-promoting disaster. There are plenty of good women out there but somehow they'd probably choose Martha Stewart before lifting a finger to go out and actually recruit some qualified folks that believe in conservatism and/or the Republican platform.

I wouldn’t trust her with a 3-minute egg.

Luckily the Dept of Commerce is less important than a 3-minute egg.

Oh yeah,, a Justice Lindsay Graham comes to mind too.

Just what we need, another bachelor on the court...

Yes, there are plenty of good women out there - and plenty good men. But given what Democrats of done to politics, what sane and intelligent person would subject themselves and families to, what has become, politics?

We need a sane and intelligent President today more than ever, but what sane and intelligent person would want to?

My new slogan:

Vote against
psychopathology:

Vote NO!

for
President

Excerpted from Wikipedia

In an 10 October 2007 article in Daily Variety, it was reported that Fiorina had signed with Fox Business Network to become a frequent business commentator on the newly-formed cable network, intended to be a competitor to the CNBC cable network.[29]

Fiorina holds positions on the board of trustees of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and the Foundation Board of the World Economic Forum. She is an Honorary Fellow of the London Business School.[30]

In early September 2005, Fiorina was named a director at Revolution Health Group, a venture formed by Steve Case.[31] In October 2005, Fiorina joined the board of computer security company Cybertrust.[32] In April 2006, Fiorina joined the board of directors for Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company. Fiorina is an independent Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company board member and serves on the audit and compensation committees.

PS: Buy when no one wants and sell when everyone wants. 2000-2001 the Dotcoms and techs soared and then crashed. Bought anytime in 2005, this has been an outstanding investment.

No freaking way “accomplished business leader” on what flipping planet did that happen?
Ok, I could go on about her but I would get band from FR for really really, no I mean it, really inappropriate language.

I hear ya! I didn't mean to get ya riled up but thought you would "appreciate" this thread, so to speak.

The propaganda machine is a wondrous thing!

I am posting on here since I saw her on MSNBC today and was really impressed. She did an EXCELLENT job of portraying McCain vs. Obama. Very impressive.......

For this being her first political, she is damn good.

She clearly articulated areas in which McCain did reforms and how Obama was against those etc. But, she did it in a way that seems more genuine than most talking heads for campaigns.

She is very personable. They need to get this woman out there.

I should say I mean she is good at being a spokesperson.

I would be worried about much more due to her past business background.

I already decided to not vote for Mccain. Her as VP could get me to vote Obama. Well, maybe not but that would clinch a blank ballot.

A natural match. McCain flew planes during the war and Fiorina was in charge of kamikaze flight operations in the private sector.
