2. my goodness, that Carly sure is laughable isn't she? so she babbled foolishly as a figurehead of

a corporation for a while, as they began to tank - does that make her suitable to be elected senator? Laughable, 100x more so than saying that someone who was employed as the "10th judge" of the SCOTUS, in the function of the solicitor general, is not qualified to be a SCJ!

What dribble that comes out of these GOP fools...

3. Kagan: the short list
Princeton, Oxford, Harvard, Clerked for a Federal Judge, Clerked for Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall,
University of Chicago Law School Faculty, Private Practice, White House Lawyer (Clinton Administration), Picked to
be a Federal Judge by President Clinton but the Republicans in the senate would not hold the hearings so she
did not become a Federal Judge, Harvard Law School Professor, Harvard Law School Dean, & Solicitor General.

I think she might have the needed skills to be a Justice on the Supreme Court of the United States.

carly fiorina

Condé Nast Portfolio listed Carly Fiorina as one of 'The 20 Worst American CEOs of All Time.

Carly Fiorina is the Republican candidate for U.S. Senator in California, a position that requires consummate executive and political skills. Fiorina
regularly tells voters in the Bear State that she is a seasoned business executive who knows how to be an effective decision maker.

Yet, a sentence in her Wikipedia profile notes why this is hypocrisy: “In 2005, the Hewlett-Packard board forced Fiorina to resign.” Ah, but it gets
better – or worse depending upon whether you were a Hewlett-Packard stockholder: “When Fiorina became CEO in July, 1999, HP's stock price was
$52 per share, and when she left 5 1/2 years later in February, 2005, it was $21 per share—a loss of over 60% of the stock's value.”

And the coup de grace: “The company's stock jumped on news of Fiorina's departure."

4. If Fiorina says no, the correct action is to vote yes for Kagan...
Never take the word of someone who could drive a company the size of HP into the ground as something serious. You will most likely come out ahead, if you do the opposite...:D
