Nonsensical bs. HP has a market cap of 55 billion largely because of the foresight and guts of Fiorina.

“Whoever is perceived to have “won” the second tier debate may have gained more round than if they had participated in the first tier.”

I believe those who do well in the 2ned tier may get a boost, and those that don’t do well in the 1st tier may e hurt.

We are 15 months out from the election. I think the ridiculous size of the field, is evidence of how dysfunctional, unorganized the GOP is, from the RNC, to leadership and the vast field of candidates using it for their future earnings only.

These debates with 10 on the stage is stupid. What, they'll get 7 minutes tops? How about they debate one on one for an hour or two? Do one every night for the next two months. Then they actually have to have substance to what they say.

If the GOP hasn't figured out that they can go around the media for these debates, they deserve to lose. You have the world's most dynamic media available and they still want 10 people on a stage.

This is a total girl thing to say, but, look at the two photos and notice, she is very good at matching her makeup to her outfits. She has good style.

So, the early debate will have fewer participants than the later one, won’t it? I think they should start with all 17 and then vote one off each week via toll-free call.

When I looked for a photo for her, my two observations were that she had far too many unguarded moments when it came to makeup, and she also upgraded her style, hair and other things in recent years.

I think it’s important for a woman to look her best. Men too, but particularly women.

Fox News could be accused of being sexist. There needs to be at least ONE woman in the debate. Wow, unthinkable. Women everywhere should revolt.

iCarly is out of the top ten for some good reasons.

* “health of the mother” exception on abortion
* Opposed a ban on embryonic stem cell research
* Wants to ‘examine the science’ on Global Warming, as the “US can’t act alone”
* Favored DREAM Act
* Opposed ban on homosexuals in the military
* Pledged to ‘work across the aisle’ in California race, referring specifically to Dianne Feinstein

If Republicans ran gender identity campaigns, they’d be even more like Democrats.

.

and yet, while real-estate moguls, threatening to mount a third-party run, are allowed to turn the stage into something resembling a reality show, her candidacy is left to languish on stage with the George Patakis and Jim Gilmores of the race.


Carly Fiorina has taken some interesting positions, some of them "conservative", on various issues.

Do I trust her like I do Sarah Palin or Michelle Bachman ?

Hardly.

I genuinely hope that I'm mistaken about Carly Fiorina.

My experience of watching RINOs run as "Conservatives" whom they privately despise over champaign, has taught me otherwise ...


Apologies for spelling errors ...

Just as long as she stays in the race until almost the end, getting 1-2 percent the entire time, and ripping Hillary to shreds every step of the way.

Ten candidates is probably too many, to be honest. The format isn’t the problem, it’s the number of candidates. Carly needs to stay in the race to keep hammering Hillary, though, whether she gets on the debates or not.

I have no huge quarrel w limiting the numbers, and having two debates. There is a lot I want to hear. This is a chance for some of the fine-but-lesser-known candidates to impress us; and, there just might be a few that I would not feel too badly if they muddle their message or just visibly do not measure up.

Importantly, it could be argued that the shining star of the 5pmers will get a bigger and better boost than the also-rans of the 8pmers.

Nonsensical? She cost 18-24,000 American jobs and replaced many with foreign workers.

Carly is an affirmative action candidate and participant. It is idiotic that some people favor her for her attacks on Clinton. How about her job killing, her positions? Don't they matter? She got rightfully fired from HP, she failed in a run for the Senate, what has she done to justify consideration? From what I can see, nothing.

With Trump and Cruz we've got two good candidates, plus a number of others, despite politics, that would be much better than Carly. No, she should be down and out.
