votes to outsource jobs overseas like she did at HP

Last time I checked, protectionism and unionism were not on the conservative agenda. Perhaps you are thinking we should all get on the socialist bandwagon. Are you for spreading the wealth too? You see, Apple, IBM, DELL, etc.. outsourced jobs to China, etc. and they are still in business. You would have preferred that HP shut its doors. Just saying... your argument for why you say she is a RINO drips with socialist claptrap.

Just saying... you have no idea what you are talking about. I really, really wish people who talk about FioRINO’s disastrous reign at HP would know some facts first.

The people at HP were not union. There was a culture of excellence at HP that FioRINO destroyed.

In 2001, the people at HP took a voluntary pay cut, up to 10% to save HP money. Then, the layoffs started. In the past, before the incompetent FioRINO took command, the layoffs had been handled by frontline managers to determine the worst performers to lay off vs. the best performers to keep. Miss Carly had a better idea, to just cut people regardless of performance. Oh, she’s so smart and innovative! This is not capitalism, it’s stupidity of the highest order.

And this is your candidate. You can HAVE HER. She’s an idiot.

And by the way, there are ways to implement outsourcing without ruining your company. Apple, Dell, Google do it. But they have non-incompetents at the helm. HP wasn’t so lucky.

As for capitalism, I’m more for it than you are in that capitalism rewards the competent and dumps the stupid. When FioRINO was fired from HP, the market responded THAT DAY by HP stock rising 10%, so put that in your socialist pipe and smoke it.
