#1 oh yeah look for more hit pieces as this rce takes off. "Her slashing of 10,000 employees during the 2000 high-tech crash dimmed her appeal to the rank and file" Umm businesses do that ALL THE TIME. She is not the most articulate so I hope she is practicing her one liners, I was thinking of "Address me as Senator because I am going to throw that loathsome bitch out of office" Just spitballing here.

#2 I hope they can find someone better to oppose Boxer.

#3 Hilzik has a reputation for being a mendacious, obfuscating turd. On the other hand, Fiorina really does seem to have been widely disliked at HP, and gave a really achingly awful speech at the convention last year.

#4 I don't see how he gets off describing her as charismatic. I've seen her speak and she is anything but. Lackluster is more like it, both as a speaker and in her performance as a corporate CEO. I'm afraid Boxer would tear her to shreds and leave her on the floor. I sure hope we can get a better candidate.

#5 I second that: Boxer will destroy this woman.

#6 this is almost as bad an idea as running John McCain for president was. she doesn't connect with anyone, is a lackluster(at best) communicator) and has a huge list of "even thoughs"*

* as in when someone asks you who you are going to vote for you say "even though she holds liberal positions that are identical to her opponent, i am going to vote for her"

#7 Fiorina is an arrogant ass. She ran HP into the ground and left with a multimillion dollar severance package when the board finally had enough and threw her out. Surely in a state the size of California the GOP can find a better candidate than her.

#8 If the GOP wants to win, they will nominate a Hispanic.
