LA Times reported on this ad today: "Boxer TV ad condemns Fiorina's raises, layoffs at HP"

Democratic Sen. Barbara Boxer released a blistering new ad Wednesday that accused rival Carly Fiorina of enriching herself as the chief executive of Hewlett-Packard while presiding over thousands of layoffs and the relocation of American jobs overseas.

The 30-second ad, airing on broadcast and cable channels in California's four largest media markets, hews to the central theme that Boxer has tried to drive on the campaign trail: that Republican nominee Fiorina was an unfeeling CEO who valued personal ambition over the jobs of average workers.

"Fiorina shipped jobs to China and while Californians lost their jobs, Fiorina tripled her salary and bought a million-dollar yacht," the narrator says. "Carly Fiorina. Outsourcing jobs. Out for herself."

3. She also runined HP

After Carly's run, HP began making inferior junk products that fell apart or didn't even work when brand new. I still shy away from buying anything they sell.

4. But, but, but, but -----

It was such a brilliant business model! Cutting costs makes things better! The more we turn things into junk, the lower the cost, the lower the cost, the more we can sell, the more we sell, the more money we make, the more money we make, the more we can spend to improve products the AMERICAN way!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THAT'S why we HAVE to ship jobs overseas!

What kind of retards ARE these libruls to ruin American business with some STUPID thing called product quality!!!!!!!!!!??????????

14. The slaves who make that junk can't afford to buy that junk.

Can you imagine ...a GM worker that can't afford to buy the car he is building ...or a Walmart worker who can only buy from Walmart because they don't earn enough to buy any place else?

6. great ad - hope they have some in reserves for later as well - like Fiorina during McCain campaign

she's an all-for-me fake, and it really showed during the campaign

[Iwillnevergiveup]

7. California got strapped

with 2 exceptionally lame Republican candidates this election cycle. Meg has now spent $119 million. That's an all-time record. Both are going down ( hope never to return.

11. That kicks ass! nt

12. not only did she ship jobs to China

but the company who now makes HP products called Foxconn, which is more like a sweatshop, had to put up nets outside the windows because chinese workers were jumping to their deaths. The company treats them like rats in a laboratory. They have to live at the factory in dormitories. Make less than a dollar/hr to spin these products out. Apple too.When Steve Jobs was asked about it he just said it was troubling but didn't remove his product. Capitalism..you can have it. I won't by anything HP or Apple. Go Barbera.

13. thats how the Dems need to attack

nice ad

[NBachers]

15. Go Boxer

I wish I didn't feel so shaky about Jerry Brown winning over Meg Whitman, though. God, how do I get away from Meg Whitman? Is there no relief?

[mackerel]

16. Carly buried HP into the ground and the

Hewlett's and Packard will never forgive her.

[HughBeaumont]

17. She also tried to attain a 60 million dollar bonus for herself while she was CEO.

She did million-dollar makeovers on her homeS while the workers she fired lost theirs.

Insufferable pigs like Carly can take a flying leap.

Democrats need to take notes from Boxer and Sherrod Brown as to how to attack your opponent. Really, with all of their little-people-hating bullshit they pull, it should be as easy as shooting fish in a barrel.

It should be.

19. Can we put that on a 24 hour loop in CA? Pretty please?

OH, and one in Delaware with Christine O'Dumbell saying, "American scientific companies are crossbreeding humans and animals and coming up with mice with fully functioning human brains". OH, and one in Kentucky showing Rand Paul to be the anti-Social Security, anti-Civil Rights, anti-Good Hair Piece candidate. OH, and... just plain ANY video of Joe Miller in Alaska just... being Joe Miller (ditto for Sharon "Black Football Jerseys are Satanic Jerseys Because They Are, After All, Black, Which Is the Color of The Antichrist" Angle). Please? Pretty please? Thanks. :)
