Pure ignorance and lack of any knowledge of the stock market and era that she was hired in. Let me educate you.

Do you not remember the Dot-com bubble growing from 1997–2000 only to collapse 1999-2001? Yes the bubble was starting to collapse 1999 even as it peeked in 2000.

It wasn't just Dot-com's that got hammered Cisco lost 86% of its market capitalization.

When was Carly hired at HP 1999. Right at the beginning of the bubble collapsing.

Who buys HP servers? No one in a crashing economy sending 1000's of Dot-com's to their death. Amazon.com, eBay.com, whose stock went from 107 to 7 dollars per share were not exactly in the let's go buy a 1000 HP servers type of mood. Ford stopped a planned phased renewal of their hardware. I know this because I was there stuck waiting for my new machines that never came. Now repeat this across 1000's of companies and you will get a picture of how dire the situation was for HP.

So in short you literally have no f'ing clue about business or the economy and clearly what it takes to make a really hard decision while running one.

Isn't she anti-abortion & anti-gay?

Most of the others have hinted that they'll fight a Supreme Court gay marriage legalization somehow. She's one of the few who said she would just accept a ruling in favor, no need to fight.

Don't get me wrong I don't think she has much of a chance but she isn't the person Liberals are painting her to be either. She isn't experienced as a politician so she will make some mistakes on the stump, I guess you would call them inartful but Biden with a lifetime of political service does it all the time. Hopefully she learned a lot from her last campaign. What she might be running for is a cabinet position or even SoS.

If this is her stance on feminism...what's her stance on abortion? This sounds fairly pro-choice to me, if she is...good luck with the GOP sis.

No, we're not.

Get him

I'm sorry what's the relation?
There isnt any.

It's called the tech bubble. Everybody was laying folks off at that time. I mean Cisco was worth more than Microsoft and their value was slashed by like 90% or something when the bubble burst.

And even with that, You dont wanna play the tattered history card when Hilary has more skeletons in her closet than a Polish graveyard after WW2. (Assuming that you support Hilary, of course)

Carly has said she will not fight to repeal issues on women's reproductive rights... that she herself is pro-life, but that the supreme court's decision on Roe v Wade and other women's issues should be upheld...that the courts decision should be respected.

It seems as if she has a very strong faith and belief in the judicial branch. I can respect that.

Failed HP executive. She shouldve called for equal treatment when they picked her to be CEO of HP.

When did Carly become ceo of hp? 1999 - 2005 that is when HP fell off and has never recovered from it tbqh. Hp lost out because they didnt have something else to fall back on and carly managed the failed merger with compaq.

Carly made HP a more competitive company across the board. And as someone said in an earlier post the economic crisis of the 2000's hit tech companies hard. Of course, the chief executive is always going to be blamed for things that are out of their control. Carly advanced HP long term at her own personal expense. Think if more politicians put the American people first, instead of their own personal interests.
