Do you think it is wise of McCain to get economic advise from somebody who almost ran HP into the ground?

    No, and besides her and Phil Gramm, he has a guy on his team who was once a high ranking exec at Lehman

    I know. I even know someone who works for HP. I know some of the deal with Carly from an insider. What a joke.

    Ignorance is evil. If people really support McCain/Palin then they are bedding the enemy. Look around. Yes, Clinton/Greenspan do share some of the blame but Clinton was never really a democrat. Please. That's why I couldn't fully support Hillary. I'm sure that's a contributing factor as to why Obama didn't choose her.

    edit: I'm a feminist and liberal. I like smart and intelligent women. But that's it. They have to be smart and intelligent. How is not sexist to just support a woman because she is a woman? What a joke. That's the worse kind of sexism to me. Patronizing!

  • In the two years after Carly got the boot from HP, her policies and acquisitions were seen by everyone (yes, including her detractors and the folks who gave her that boot in her booty) to have been effective and financially sound. Translation: Her reign at HP is now seen to have been a good one. So sorry to disappoint you.

    BTW, before you believe ANYTHING you read on Wikipedia, you must independently verify its veracity. There is a LOT of nonsense and outright BS on that site.

    did you not read the entire wiki?

    quote:

    After Fiorina's departure from Hewlett-Packard in 2005, the company quickly prospered, overtaking Dell as the top-selling computer maker in the world. Her defenders, and even some critics, credit her with laying the foundations for that prosperity

    the board grew nervous about her decisions, but she turned out to be right.

    McCain doesn't understand the economy so he has no choice but to trust his friends, who are greedy, and have no concern for working Americans

    And you think it's wise that Obama get his advise from an unrepentant terrorist and a preacher who wants to run America into the ground.

    No. But wise isn't a word I'd use to discribe McCain.

    If you want to know what went wrong with something ask some one who knows and has experience.

    She has been a very successful businesswoman over her career. This sounds like more sexism from the left to me..
