McCAIN: I don’t think so. … Because I think she did a good job as CEO in many respects. I don’t know the details of her compensation package. But she’s one of many advisers that I have.

Q: But she did get a $45 million dollar golden parachute after being fired while 20,000 of her employees were laid off.

McCAIN: I have many of the people, but I do not know the details of what happened.

1. For a minute there, Meredith actually started sounding like a real journalist again
I hope she keeps it up.

2. Meredith began as an investigative journalist
I hope you're right and she doesn't let the straightjacket of the Today Show reign her in. That small clip showed someone finally hammering McCain on his cluelessness.

:popcorn:

6. Fiorini is the repuke version of a success. She made a fortune while screwing the employees.
I think Mcsame blinks when he is BSing and looks down and to the side when its an outright lie. Like when he says he didn't know about her compensation package. Hey poker players, (I am not one) what are his tells?
