12. A CEO kicked out of her job
and she thinks she can get voters to vote for her. I suppose like all the rest she thinks she can pull the wool over voters eyes and some people are dumb as dirt and will believe anything she says.

11. She's gonna need some help. Paging Sarah Palin. Sarah Palin, please come to California.
It's your duty.

Come soon.

And don't let Carly's insistence that you don't help her fool you.

:evilgrin:

20. That's the plan. Sarah starts off supporting, is shunned, launches campaign for Conservative Nut.
At least that's the trend.

13. My favorite Final Jeopardy Question Ever...
This was like 3 years ago.

Besides George Bush and Dick Cheney, who received the most votes nationwide in the 2004 election?


(kind of a trick question, but I got it...) :-)

15. Speaking as a former employee of HP...
Edited on Wed Nov-04-09 03:14 PM by backscatter712
it is my solemn duty to do everything in my power to ruin Fiorina's political career.

She was so bad as CEO of HP that when it was announced that she was leaving, employees were jumping for joy in the cubicles and singing "Ding Dong The Witch Is Dead!!!"

16. She'll constantly have to explain why
she was fired. Good luck with that one.

22. She didn't bother to vote for years. Do only the "little people" vote?
Why would someone so disengaged from our system of government be a good choice to run it? Didn't Caroline Kennedy have this same issue in New York when it was discovered she rarely voted?

This actually resonates with people. It smacks of elitism - that the wealthy float so far above the issues that affect the common man that they can't even bother themselves to vote.
