Fiorina: Palin Doesn't Have Experience To Run A Major Company
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/09/16/fiorina-palin-couldnt-do_n_126827.html

Carly Fiorina, a key surrogate for John McCain on economic issues, said on Tuesday that Sarah Palin does not have the experience needed to run a major company like the one that Fiorina formerly headed.

"Do you think has the experience to run a major company, like Hewlett Packard?" asked the host.

"No, I don't," responded Fiorina. "But you know what? That's not what she's running for."




Yeah, she's only running for the second highest office in the nation. :eyes:

1. They know she's not qualified but
they'll be damned if they admit it, no matter what.

5. I guess Carly Fiorina would know.
HP just announced they're laying off 26,000 people.

8. Palin doesn't have the experience to be VP which is why Carly Fiorina has taken
on the role of McCains attack dog. Palin needs a surrogate to do the VP job.

9. Her statement does have a point I like
I hate when people say "I ran a business" as a reason they are qualified to run for President or Governor or whatever they are running for. Government and business have two different purposes so to argue that running them is the same bothers me. Although like some already pointed out, Palin isn't qualified to run a large company or to run for VP.

10. Fiorina proved that she can't run a corporation either. Talk about being catty! *meoo-oow*
I wonder if they'll get Palin to scratch back at Fiorina.

*phht phht*
