Fiorina is going FULL FRONTAL hug. (She's older than Ted by enough years that I think the hug, for all its other inappropriateness, is bad manners and shows disrespect to a lady a number of years older than you, like old enough to be your mom. You don't grab "older" ladies like that, you treat them gentlemanly, gently and chivalrously, particularly if it's a "formal" or professional event, versus say a backyard bar-b-que.) You don't grab her and press her body full frontal into yours! Then again, maybe that is their relationship.)
Heidi seems to be steeling her forearms to keep him from getting any closer than that distance. Who can blame her.
