I'm anxious to see if Carly Fiorina is really Kodos or Kang underneath that lifelike human suit.

Carly Fiorina woos Clinton supporters for McCain



http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20080615/pl_nm/usa_politics_mccain_fiorina_dc_2

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Republican John McCain enlisted the high-profile help of Carly Fiorina, once the most powerful businesswoman in the United States, on Saturday to try to get women behind his campaign for the White House.

Arizona Sen. McCain makes no secret of his wish to attract women who backed New York Sen. Hillary Clinton's failed presidential bid, regularly praising her and noting their work and travel together as members of the U.S. Senate.

Fiorina, a top economic adviser and head of a Republican get-out-the-vote effort, empathized with the former first lady's experience when she took questions from across the country during a McCain campaign "virtual town-hall meeting."

"Having started as a secretary and eventually become a chief-executive officer, I not only have great admiration and respect for Hillary Clinton and her candidacy and her leadership, but I also have great empathy, I must tell you, for what she went through," Fiorina said.

"I also believe though, if we are striving for a gender-blind, color-blind society, that we really ought to be focused on the person that we think will make the right judgments, the right decisions and have the right positions."

That person is John McCain, she said.

2. I also have friends who experienced her "magic" at HP first-hand...
...but I guess that the good news is that once she failed miserably (and destroyed the corporate culture in doing so), she left with one of the biggest golden parachute severance packages on record...THEN went on to write a book in which she played the martyr.

I hope that the American people...the voters, specifically...are smart enough to take careful notice of who McCain's got in his corner.

4. "Pioneering woman CEO" - what a fucking joke.
That stupid ditz nearly ran a reputable business to the ground and was such a stinker in management and leadership that her board essentially mutinied against her.
