as I posted on another thread...

Some notes on Carly (who I want to remain in the race attacking Hillary constantly until the end, or until Hillary drops out):

Daughter of a law school professor and an abstract artist...
Her BA's are in philosophy and medieval history... ahem
She dropped out of Law School after ONE semester (note the father above)...
She worked as a temp agency secretary during undergrad, then as a real estate broker for 6 months, then taught English in Italy for a year (when her first husband moved there for his job)...
Married in 1977, gets her Masters in Marketing and joins AT&T as a management trainee in 1980, divorces in 1984...

Got all that? By the time she was 30, she had not held a job for more than a year, and her educational fields are all over the place, and she already has a divorce under her belt... not exactly Presidential background thus far... now watch this...

1985, marries Mr Fiorina... who happens to be an exec at AT&T. Not tough to guess how her marriage ended and how she got married less than a year later...
Now, married to an AT&T exec, watch her career path suddenly change:

1995, led corporate operations for the spinoff from AT&T of Lucent...
1996, appointed president of Lucent's consumer products business...
1997, appointed chair of Lucent's consumer communications joint venture with Philips...
1998, named group president for the global service provider business at Lucent...
1999, named chief executive officer of Hewlett-Packard Company
(received a larger signing offer than any of her predecessors, including: $65 million in stock, a $3 million signing bonus, a $1 million annual salary (plus a $1.25–3.75 million annual bonus), $36,000 in mortgage assistance)
2001, merger with Compaq...
2003, requests for voluntary pay cuts to prevent layoffs (subsequently followed by the largest layoffs in HP's history)...
2005, forced to resign from HP...

2006, USAToday names her Worst Tech CEO of all-time

Overcame breast cancer, and then took it to Barbara Boxer during her 2009 campaign against her. Made a classic bad ad ("demon sheep"), and lost... but her line "I have to say that after chemotherapy, Barbara Boxer just isn't that scary anymore" was also a classic.

She is THE best person to go after Hillary from now until NOV 2016... but she also should not be the nominee nor named the VP.

Thanks, this is all very useful info. I am in complete agreement with you about her. Let her attack the hag, but no way she should be on the ticket.
