Q: You mean this (in 2008, having to support McCain's idiotic ideas, including his support for a "different" cap-and-trade"?)

Speaking at the 2008 Republican National Convention in Minneapolis, Minn., she praised Sen. John McCain's (R-Ariz.) cap-and-trade plan as something that would "both create jobs and lower the cost of energy":

I know John McCain. And in 2013, America will be more energy-independent because of his determination that we must power our own country, and his long-standing commitment to protecting our environment. John McCain will create a cap-and-trade system that will encourage the development of alternative energy sources. He will help advance clean coal technology, and nuclear power. And all of this will both create jobs and lower the cost of energy.

BTW, Sarah Palin and almost every Republican in 2008 had no choice but to support McCain and his "brilliant" ideas... He and Romney and almost all other Republican "leaders" have done a lot of damage. Has Trump flipped on cap-and-trade and single-payer health plan that "worked so well in Scotland and other places" just a few days ago? If you are looking for a "perfect" candidate you won't find it playing these games.

A: Yes, she did "renounce" Cap-and-Tax:

In a 2010 campaign ad, Fiorina attacked her Democratic opponent for claiming climate change is an important national security issue. "Terrorism kills," Fiorina says. "And Barbara Boxer's worried about the weather."

I don't think she explained how to beat Barbara Boxer or any other Democrat / Socialist in California (I don't know if anybody can "explain" how it could be done in 2010-2016), but I am pretty sure she can explain how to beat Barbara Boxer and Hillary Clinton and any other Democrat / Socialist in most of the 50 states... Is that good enough?

Anyway, the article was about continuing misperceptions of her record at HP.
