Video: The obligatory “Carly Fiorina caught on open mic” video
hotair.com ^ | 10-9-10 | Allahpundit

Posted on 06/10/2010 9:04:13 PM PDT by Justaham

CNN’s got it, Breitbart.tv has already posted it, so it should be viral within an hour or so. It’s a small comfort to know that here, unlike with her gaffes during campaign 2008, she didn’t know the mic was on when she started yapping. (Memo to Carly: The mic is always on.) Nothing too terrible results, thankfully: There’s a cheap laugh near the end about how awful Barbara Boxer’s hair is, but most of the clip is consumed with her wondering aloud why Meg Whitman would start the general election in a blue state by appearing on the show of stalwart righty Sean Hannity. Which … is a fair question, actually. But then Fiorina says, “Sean Hannity is not an easy interview.” Really? For a Republican candidate? She’s also wrong about Whitman never having appeared before on Sean’s show, but that’s neither here nor there. Exit question: On a scale of one to 10, where does this rate on the gaffe-o-meter?

On content, it rates about a 1, but in terms of control, it rates about a 7.

ALL MICS ARE HOT!!

Need to post that on sticky notes on all surfaces in her hotel rooms until it sinks in on her.

What’s with Boxer’s hair, anyway. Sometimes that woman’s hair is so streaked it makes her look like a skunk.

If I'd been near an open mike, I could have been caught making similar statements about that frosted hair, and have commented on it at FR in the past more than once. It's something else, and nothing good.

Hopefully it wasn’t “Does the carpet match the drapes?”

Old news, there is no there, there.
Carly was on Greta the other evening answering questions
about this.
Too bad there wasn’t more to this for her detractors in
hopes left wing Boxer could win.

Sean played this. She’s coming on his show. He laughed about that.

I burst out laughing when she made the Boxer comment, what disturbed me was this wasn’t an open mic, it seemed to be an open video camera and I wonder if that wasn’t a set up? She seemed to be up early waiting for a satellite feed interview and killing time making comments... and who among us would want a secret camera to record our every comment?

Am I the only one who doesn’t get why this is such a big deal?

Wow. Some truth from a politician. Boxers hair is totally stupid and so is the idea to go on Hannity. Good for Carly. Ridiculing Boxer is a plus, not a minus. The media thinks they have something damning. They don't.

Yes, wondered that also.
She handled it very well on Greta.
Carly won’t take crap from Boxer during
the campaign.

An open mic allowed a gaffe by Fiorina. A gaffe. A single occurance that will be replayed over and over and over again by the State Run Media of the Democrats.

Meanwhile, Aunt Jemima, who can't handle peeing without the aid of a teleprompter, refers to a Navy Corpsman as a "Corpseman". Not once. Not twice. Three freaking times did this dumbass mispronounce it, proving his limited vocabulary.
