Obama has been in the on-deck circle since 2008.

He was the designated nimnod during 2009.

So far he has no runs, no hits and no errors because he's not even in the ballpark now.

It's way past stupid - it's wrong.

Those graphs actually are the best endorsement Carly Fiorina could get,

The poster of the graph is obviously not aware that IBM sold off it's PC business to Chinese Lenovo in 2005 IBMs stock went up because it got rid of it's PC business and concentrated on it's higher margin corporate and government support side of the business.

Scott McNealy and Sun tanked.

Dell, the other PC giant tanked.

The only computer PC maker that seems to do well is the Compac/HP merged entity.

So their you have it.

In the PC/Workstation Biz IBM folded and gave their PC business to the Chinese , Dell tanked, SUN crashed and burned and HP did great relative tot the rest of the business.

HP nailed the direction of the PC market and Fiorina’s changes for efficiency and cost reduction , bitterly fought by HP’s extravagant, self indulgent corporate culture, together the economies of scale generated by combining HP/Compac allowed HP to get ahead of the curve and be competitive as the PC industry transitioned from a smaller technology driven base to a much higher volume commoditized, consumer electronics business model
