Shorty, you big fibber. This is the Fiornia quote:
Appearing on a KTRS Radio show in St. Louis, Fiorina was asked by the host, “Do you think she has the experience to run a major company like Hewlett Packard?”
“No, I don’t,” Fiorina answered. “But that’s not what she’s running for. Running a corporation is a different set of things."
"I would just remind you that it is Barack Obama who is running for president," she continued. "John McCain who is running for president.”
______________________-
Fiornia did NOT say that the other candidates were not equiped to run a corporation (as you stated, you big fibber), while she did say that about Palin. She just said it was a "different set of things", then she tried to backoff by saying it was McCain who was running for President....not Palin.
Hardly an endorsement, Shorty. Hardly.
And still a Stupid, Stupid thing for Carly to say.....

Only LATER, after she blundered, did Carly say:
UPDATE: Asked about the comment during an MSNBC interview, Fiorina replied: “Well, I don't think John McCain could run a major corporation, I don't think Barack Obama could run a major corporation, I don't think Joe Biden could run a major corporation.
"But, on the other hand, a major corporation is not the same as being the president or the vice president of the United States. It is a fallacy to suggest that the country is like a company. So, of course, to run a business, you have to have a lifetime of experience in business, but that's not what Sarah Palin, John McCain, Joe Biden, or Barack Obama are doing."
________________
Earth to Carly - YOU couldn't run a major corporation either!
And then the Obama camp gets to put out this quote:
“If John McCain’s top economic advisor doesn’t think he can run a corporation, how on Earth can he run the largest economy in the world in the midst of a financial crisis?" said Obama spokesman Tommy Vietor. "Apparently even the people who run his campaign agree that the economy is an issue John McCain doesn’t understand as well as he should." |
