Even though Republican presidential hopefuls have a contest among themselves to settle, they've devoted considerable energy in New Hampshire to going after Democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton.
Businesswoman Carly Fiorina was vigorous on the subject in her turn on stage in Nashua on Saturday.
"Hillary Clinton must not be president of the United States," she declared.
The former business executive said Clinton lacks the achievements and candor to be president and would damage the nation's potential.
She laced into the bloat of the federal government, as well. "The weight of the government is literally crushing the potential of the people of this nation," she said.

What does she have to do to be qualified, Ms. Fiorina ? Drive one of the oldest and most venerable computer companies nearly into the ground?

(19,537 posts)And I recall when I worked for a partner of HP and how that relationship along with an HP product was trashed due to some STUPID decisions that she made that actually helped Steve Jobs and Apple more than it helped HP or any of its partners and customers.
And Californians weren't about to be bought by her words to have her be her senator either! She should just go off some place and hide and relish that she still isn't in the poor house like so many of the rest of us are that she wants to put in worse situations.

"She loves the big stage and has no fear of saying whatever it takes to win the moment," another email said.

The layoff of thousands of HP workers?
Maybe its the Billions in HP profits that she diverted to offshore accounts to dodge paying taxes.

It's for GOPers who are chronically irony deficient.

Seriously, though, even people who despise Ms. Clinton understand her to be a brilliant and accomplished woman. A lawyer, a twice-elected senator, a secretary of state, an active member of boards, charitable organizations, NGOs. Is Fiorina even serious with this nonsense?
Also "the weight [...] is literally crushing potential..." Yeesh.

(10,279 posts)Fiorina killed its innovation, drove off its best people, converted HP into a commodity manufacturing company, and drove it into the ditch. If Carly can get the GOP nomination, we will be treated to some spectacular stories of her horrible decision-making at HP. Carly Fiorina must not be president of the United States.
