Fiorina fired again; will she blab? So McSame fired Palin's lady-in-waiting.

[blondeatlast]

How big of a golden parachute will the McSame campaign give her (to keep her quiet)? HP paid her 20 million just to get her out of there (and became pretty successful after she was let go).

Or better yet, will she get NO money--and talk?

What can she tell us about Sarah Palin--and will she? Can you saaay--very public catfight? :evilgrin:

McCain reportedly ‘furious’ with Fiorina, campaign adviser says she will ‘disappear’ from TV.

Today, McCain economic adviser Carly Fiorina bluntly stated that neither John McCain nor Sarah Palin were capable of running a major corporation (she said the same of Barack Obama and Joseph Biden). A top campaign adviser said Fiorina will be punished for her candid sentiments:

“Carly will now disappear,” this source said. “Senator McCain was furious.” Asked to define “disappear,” this source said, adding that she would be off TV for a while – but remain at the Republican National Committee and keep her role as head of the party’s joint fundraising committee with the McCain campaign.

Fiorina was booked for several TV interviews over the next few days, including one on CNN. Those interviews have been canceled.

7. So, see? McCain IS capable of running a big company. He knows how to downsize.

9. Fiorina is a fucking joke.

That's all.

10. Carly Fiorina is head of the GOP "Victory Fund." Hard to see how she's fired from fundraising.

11. She Has Made A Fortune By Getting Fired

Even George Constanza can't match that.

12. The rumor was that she would no longer make any appearances

as a campaign surrogate. Probably still in charge of fund raising.

Yesterday's very bad day for Carly Fiorina didn't go unnoticed within the McCain campaign, as CNN reports:

A top McCain official contacted by CNN said, on condition on anonymity, "No big deal, but not how you get on the surrogate all-star team. Very Biden-like."
"This campaign source said Fiorina would be discouraged from additional media interviews.

Another top campaign adviser was far less diplomatic.

"Carly will now disappear," this source said. "Senator McCain was furious." Asked to define "disappear," this source said, adding that she would be off TV for a while - but remain at the Republican National Committee and keep her role as head of the party's joint fundraising committee with the McCain campaign.

Fiorina was booked for several TV interviews over the next few days, including one on CNN. Those interviews have been canceled.

15. Good - this means we won't have to see her crying about sexism on a daily basis.
