Fiorina:'Empathy' for Hillary Clinton and Vows She'll 'Never Make a Personal Comment' About Her
People ^ | 9/23/2015 | Tierney McAfee and Sandra Sobieraj Westfall

Carly Fiorina has said that women "are not a special interest group," but that doesn't mean she doesn't feel a certain kinship with her fellow females – even her Democratic rival Hillary Clinton. "I feel empathy with every woman who is working really hard and giving it all they've got – and Hillary is," the GOP presidential hopeful tells PEOPLE in this week's issue. "She's smart, she's hardworking, she's giving it all she's got." Clinton, 67, and Fiorina, 61, first met when the former Hewlett-Packard CEO gave the commencement speech at Stanford University in 2001, the same year Clinton's daughter, Chelsea, graduated. Fiorina said in a 2008 interview with MORE magazine that she'd been to Clinton's office "to talk about various issues," adding that the former secretary of state even asked Fiorina for her support early on in her first presidential campaign.Though Fiorina declined for obvious reasons, she told MORE at the time, "I have enormous admiration for Hillary Clinton. And I felt empathy for her" after she had an "incredibly grueling several weeks" on the campaign trail. Fiorina tells PEOPLE she stands by those comments and still feels that "enormous admiration."

Suspicious? No. If you laid out the personal behavior of Bill Clinton and lined up one-hundred women....ninety-nine of them would walk away and divorce the guy. Hillary is that one-percent who is unable to do the natural thing. Fiorina is also among the one-percent, and I doubt if she could accomplish the natural thing.

This is just a forewarning of the notion of appeasement and settling - bending over backwards to be ‘reasonable and accommodating’. We’ve had years of this from the current infestation of RINOs in our government.

We do not need more of it.

Is she talking about the same Hillary who ruined the lives of the many women who came forward about Bill? Is she talking about the same Hillary who would never defund planned parenthood? Is she talking about the same Hillary who used an actual reset button with Russia?? Is that the one she won’t criticize personally????? Wow, way to fight for those conservative principals.

I am starting to think that Carly is a GOPe in TeaParty clothing.
The more she talks, the more she sounds like them.
Makes it easier to pare my list down to three.

Trump
Cruz
Carson

GOPe need not apply.

I hope Carly enjoyed her 15 minutes. I do not believe we’ll be hearing much about her ‘phenomenal ascent’ in the polls from now on.

I wonder who the media/political establishment will try next?

Maybe she’s trying lure Trump after that outsourcing to China “bizarre” thing.

Odd. What would make her do this kind of aborted, cross-messaging backup at this point?

Hillary IS the issue! And now Carly thinks she’s going to get the big media support by fainting at her feet?

Simply because she has a vagina? I don’t share a certain kinship with the murderers Stalin, Mao, Castro or even the philandering lout Bill Clinton and I share the same wedding tackle as they do.

Hillary is a criminal. Anyone else in the public arena, would be in jail for what she has done. To empathize with hillary... to overlook all the the really dumb illegal things hillary has done, the coverups, the deaths the lies, foreign money ... not good, Fiorina!

FioRINO is another squish Republican. I’m tired of this. Hillary is a thousand times worse than Richard Nixon ever was and doesn’t deserve anyone’s empathy or support. Had no plans of ever voting for this woman and I hope that people who only see her debate performances will wake up and realize this woman is another RINO to be avoided at all costs.

More in common with McCain and Romney. Let’s attack conservatives, but ignore the libs.

OMG. Try to imagine a Hillary-versus-Carly campaign. Carly won’t criticize Hillary, but Hillary will have her minions from Hell in full attack mode (including murder). Let’s just forget an election and hand it over to them.

I prefer Trump who’ll have no problem telling the truth without sugar coating.
