Carly Fiorina is clearly not worried about the mocking from the media over fake web domains. After she appeared on NBC’s “Meet the Press” this morning, she let Chuck Todd know he has a domain of his own out there.

Did you hear her explanation of why that was necessary?
Can you discuss the two issues above and below the green circled issue. Two issues where she is in agreement with Boxer.
Yikes! You sound ChuckYouTodd with that half-assed comment that conveniently omitted a few facts.
Carly did a very good job at HP during some horrible times for tech groups.
Link to NBC video where Carly provides a more factual based overview re: HP.
Here’s a woman who is doing everything feminists want - ran a top company, made tough decisions, and have quite a bit of personal success.
and now Chuck Todd is trying to tear her down because she was in a position of responsibility where difficult decisions had to be made.
That makes him a sexist pig, doesn’t it?
"Did you hear her explanation of why that was necessary?
While she's performing a service of value going after Hillary, Carly is still all-talk.
Let's not forget what she did to tank HP, including tossing out a great many engineers, only to sail away under a multi-million dollar golden parachute she got for herself.
Asked by the board of directors to step down in 2005, Fiorina left with $21 million in cash, plus stock and pension benefits worth another $19 million. According to HP executive compensation rules, departing executives are entitled to no more than 2.99 times their base salary; anything more requires stockholder approval. Fiorina's parachute was more than that, so the stockholders filed a class action suit (a federal judge dismissed it in April 2008).
Fiorina is now a Fox Business Network contributor and a top economic advisor to Republican presidential candidate John McCain." (from article of 2008) http://content.time.com/time/specials/packages/article/0,28804,1848501_1848500_1848417,00.html
I am not saying I support Carly but we as conservatives have to stop eating our own. She had a perfectly good explanation of why the layoffs were necessary during that time while other tech companies were going out of business. Lets concentrate on the real enemy, the leftist, Marxist, communist, godless people that want to destroy this country. I.e. the democrats!!
Her most effective attacks were in a 2010 primary against a candidate (Tom Campbell) from her own party whom she labelled a "RINO," which is a complete about-face considering her position working for McCain in 2008.
Yes, Carly has something to say about Hillary, but that's in keeping with her strength as purely a divisive figure, better at tearing down others (such as a company that hired her, and fellow Republicans) than building anything herself.
Not true.
Im not a big Carly fan and I definitely think she was not the best pic for the job, but she took over in 1999, just months before the Dot Com boom imploded and did a very good job steering HP through the storm.
A lot of companies did not make it through and no longer exist.
She laid the foundation for the growth that HP has seen in the last decade.
HP had a very strong old school corporate culture, some of which were negative baggage in the fast paced world of the Digital Revolution, the economics of computers, printers and electronic devices as high volume mainstream consumer products and realities of Post Cold War world including the ride of Pacific Rim countries in the electronics manufacturing world.
Carly worked hard to change the HP culture to re align it with the brave new world we are in.
One of the HP corporate culture problems was strong resistance to change.
Carly fought hard to change that culture.
HP fought back.
Carly lost.
She was right.
(Sneed was Fiorina's maiden name.)

Nice move. She’s not my candidate, but I like the way she’s pushing the jourolistas’ buttons.
What you said.
You are taking stupid to levels not before seen here at FR. Congrats.
Loved how she kept talking as Chuck tried to interrupt and he finally gave up. Great job.
Pray America is waking
She is a great asset but there are those of us who just will not stop eating our allies. Enough to drive one crazy. “Nurse Ratched, Nurse Ratched...”
That is a bit extreme a response.
You aren’t from CA. You know nothing about the Demon Sheep ad.
I’d vote for her if she won the primary.
It would be a much harder decision if the pubs put up another Bush.
She’d make a great VP (and I’ll bet she keeps her hands to herself).
Here is all I need to know. She is driving the left wing media crazy and is more than willing to take that thing called Hillary on chica a chica.
Yes, Carly fought hard to change the HP culture.
She fought hard enough that they violated their own corporate rules to give her tens of millions of dollars to get rid of her.
How is this not a “Clintonian” form of self-serving actions, and how is this a “victory” in terms of conservative principles?
