The problems at Lucent did not come to light until she was ensconced at HP.

Look if it makes you feel better to chase some phantom poll for a couple of days be my guest. Fiorino is the GOPe candidate de jour. She is not a conservative so for you middle of the roaders who want to keep the border open I guess she’s a choice. :-)

As a woman, I would not vote for Carly! My anti dream team is jebito/carly. My dream team is trump/cruz.

Everyone who ever worked for her will make a DNC campaign ad against her

She'd be toast in a week

Not to mention she will remind every man in America of the time some women trying to act like a man got affirmatively action hired and promoted over him, failed, and walked away with a huge settlement

Stop being charmed by her delivery ( if you can get past her crazy eyes) and actually consider what she promises

Like not talking to Putin
And go back and read what she said about Islam after 911

On policy how is she any different than Jeb. Carly is the bait and switch candidate, 100% GOPe. On the most important issue this election cycle, immigration, she is a Jeb clone and supports amnesty. Amnesty means 25 to 75 million new Marxist voters. American conservatism (if not America itself) will be on the ash heap of history once all those new Marxist voters start voting.

Carly FioRINO is just the latest GOPe flash in the pan, the designated hitter to try and take out Trump.

Destroyed Lucent.

Damn near destroyed Hewlett Packard.

Blew a Senate race against Barbara Boxer that was winnable.

Uh uh, don’t think so.

It’s very good news for Trump he is in a fight with Fiorina and not Bush or Kasich. Her record is non existent.

No ad hominem attacks...just facts, about this *polling* firm....

Here’s some of their previous *genious* polls....

Carson and Fiorina Top Voter Gravity Iowa Flash Poll
Written by Chris Littletonon August 11, 2015 in Blog

This Week’s Presidential Flash Poll: Walker Ahead in Colorado
Written by Chris Littletonon March 18, 2015 in Blog

We happily acknowledge early polling has more to do with name ID and familiarity, but the results are clearly showing a trend, not only in Voter Gravity flash polls, but also with other national polling – Scott Walker has solidified his position as a Tier 1 candidate.


Not much of a track record, to speak of.

No thanks!!!

Fiorina is totally anti/non PC, is a true anti-establishment candidate, is an outsider if ever there was one


Is THAT really the statement you want to hang your hat on?

Tells all.

“Fiorina is totally anti/non PC, is a true anti-establishment candidate, is an outsider if ever there was one, and has really evolved in the areas that count.”

https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/carly-fiorinas-conversion-from-hillary-clinton-fan-to-fervent-critic/2015/08/14/fd23521a-42ad-11e5-8ab4-c73967a143d3_story.html

At which point Fiorina, then a campaign surrogate for presumptive GOP nominee John McCain, offered some unprompted praise for Clinton: If Fiorina hadn’t been backing McCain, she told me, she would have been for Clinton.

“That’s off the record,” Fiorina immediately added.

LADY PUSHES MCCAIN ON HILL’S DEMOCRATS

New York Post (NY) - September 2, 2008
Author/Byline: Cindy Adams

(snip)

A McCain adviser, she and I had a little talk. Carly said: “With my title as Sen. McCain’s ‘victory chairman,’ I have my own skybox at the convention. Such a skybox is usually filled with the party faithful. However, instead of all devoted Republicans, what you will meet in my individual skybox is many Democrats.”

(snip)

“Look, in terms of Democratic women, there’s an intensity of feeling that the party passed them over. I’ve not been politically active before. Never had an affiliation before. Didn’t even know the key issues. But John McCain asked me to reach out because I can talk about economy and I can talk about women’s issues, so I got involved.

“I’m meeting with these women everywhere – Colorado, Ohio, Nevada, Scranton, Penn., where Joe Biden‘s so big. Every important swing state, every place where Hillary ran big. Not New York because we may not win New York.

“These women are right now being told, ‘The party doesn’t own your vote.’

“And because of what happened to me at Hewlett Packard, women empathize with me the same way they empathize with Hillary. We’re both fighters.”

So, Carly, about these women you’re reaching out to. They’re not Republicans you’re massing for McCain? They’re all Democrats?

“Yes. I’m a primary advocate, but a very public spokesperson in getting new votes. Pulling Democratic women’s votes into the Republican fold. I am infiltrating the Democratic Party. Going behind the lines. However, I’m not an enemy. I’m helping them. They’re welcoming me, delighted to learn about issues that concern women. Especially the economy. After all, women start small businesses. And, don’t forget, we women are the majority.”

(snip)

“So, basically, what are you saying?” I asked.

“Look, put it this way. Hillary’s people are working with me. My people are meeting with Democratic activists, Hillary activists, party activists who have been in her campaign. We’re going to places where Hillary won handily.

Specifically targeting those areas. And before Obama’s expected bounce from the Democratic convention, you’ll notice John McCain‘s numbers were creeping up.

“That was all because of us. What we’re doing. The inroads he’s making are with Democratic women. It’s grass-roots. We’re connecting with the undecideds. We began to reach out as soon as Hillary lost.”

So, Carly, hon, does Hillary know or not?

Carly Fiorina’s diamond and pearl earrings bobbled as she turned head-on to me. “People very very close to Hillary are heavily involved in this operation. And I just had lunch with a huge Hillary supporter who’s onboard.”

How Carly Fiorina managed and advised the ‘poobahs’ at Langley.

One week after 9/11, Michael Hayden, the director of the National Security Agency, the electronic surveillance arm of the U.S. government, had a long list of problems. High on the list was the fact that the NSA needed a ton of new high-tech equipment, particularly servers, right away, to handle a vastly expanded, critically important workload.

Hayden called up the CEO of Hewlett Packard, Carly Fiorina. “HP made precisely the equipment we needed, and we needed in bulk,” says Robert Deitz, who was general counsel at the NSA from 1998 to 2006. Deitz recalls that a tractor-trailer full of HP servers and other equipment was on the Washington, D.C. Beltway, en route to retailers, at the very moment Hayden called. Fiorina instructed her team to postpone the retailer delivery and have the driver stop. An NSA police car met up with the tractor-trailer and the truck proceeded, with an armed escort, to NSA headquarters in Fort Meade, Maryland. I

t was an early moment in the close professional relationship between Hayden and Fiorina. Five years later, President George W. Bush named Hayden director of the Central Intelligence Agency. Upon assuming control at Langley, Hayden decided that he wanted to create an ‘External Advisory Board.’ He once again turned to Fiorina, and she went on to chair that board.

The most obvious knock on Fiorina’s newly announced presidential bid is that she has never been elected to any government office. But during the Bush presidency, Fiorina walked the corridors of the CIA and other high offices of government, assembling recommendations for national-security policy and developing a close working relationship with some of the most powerful officials in the administration. She’s already begun to cite these years in an attempt to counter those critics who say she lacks the experience needed to be commander-in-chief.

"No, she did not knock it out of the park .... She came across as a stingy old crank to many others."

I give her credit for working in her PP fastball on the back of a question about the Iran deal. She's done her homework, but her delivery comes off very haughty.
