Fiorina said. “I had a lot of fun last night”.

“He doesn’t seem as party-obsessed as all the other candidates do”, said Alex Bennett, an 18-year-old student from Ankeny, Iowa, who plans to support Carson in February’s caucuses. He’s mellow, I feel like he knows what he’s talking about – whereas Trump is a loose cannon. But thats equally bogus even just on the economy (which is only a portion of what the president does), setting federal government policy in all its complexity is nothing like figuring out how to make people pay 40 bucks for a printer cartridge.
“I come from a world outside of politics, where track records and accomplishments count”, has been one of Fiorina’s oft-repeated quotes on the campaign trail.
As CEO of Hewlett-Packard, Fiorina oversaw 30,000 job cuts from 1999 to 2005, including roughly 200 layoffs in New Hampshire, according to news accounts at the time.
Fiorina took many lessons away from her defeat against Boxer that she can use in her quest for the presidency, she said. But the federal government set a minimum wage floor for the entire country through the Fair Labor Standards Act in 1938, and states and cities can go above that if they feel their own circumstances warrant it. And many have: the majority of states have now set their wages higher than the $7.25 floor and many more cities have done the same. She faced the same charges from Democrats in a news conference Friday, in preparation for the GOP gala “Basque Fry”. Fiorina brought pressure on Deutsche Bank, a major HP stockholder that originally opposed the deal.
Added Shulman: “It’s clear that all of the Republican candidates would be a disaster for the middle class”.
Following her debate performance earlier this month in Cleveland, Fiorina is “gaining ground, and she’s still got plenty of room for growth”.
“I don’t want a ten-year war”, Pataki said.
Pro-life Fiorina was asked by a local mother of five children about her stance on vaccinating kids. She was chief executive officer of Hewlett-Packard (HP) from 1999 to 2005. She has long blamed her failings at running the technology giant on the bursting of the dot-com bubble and the deepening recession in Silicon Valley after the September 11 attacks. Though the Holy cow, Donald Trump! phase is not almost over, we may now be seeing a simultaneous increase in the attention and interest given to some candidates who havent gotten much until now, particularly outsiders like Ben Carson and Carly Fiorina.

“If conservative and Republicans don’t vote, we lose before we start”, Fiorina said. What’s interesting (and we’ll need to dig through the cross tabs to see how this happened) is that Bush and Carson are essentially flipped.
