Look at the wording in her speeches. Look at her work with the government – she is a neocon. She is a freedom and privacy hater.

Are you all asleep?

Hmm. Overall a good impression. I think she stumbled the most, though, on the audience question of how to attract young people. Particularly for someone from the world of technology, she sounded overly vague about how to use it. She came off as someone whose technological background is in mainframes rather than smartphones, and seems not to have any clue about social media. Considering that’s basically how Obama’s team was able to leverage the youth vote, Carly seemed woefully out of touch.

With Lady Liberty and Lady Justice for all! That would certaily be a good thing, particularly if we dispensed with Ladies Hipocrisy, Cant and Mendacity. Three old tarts I have had to endure for some time now. Even through the electronics, those three tarts visit here regularly, to make my life a constant torment. I think Carly Fiorina would make a good president and she certainly should get more public support to that end. Being at the threshold of bigger and better electronics, it may help to have a more knowledgeable president. What kind of a virtual town meeting could we have if some demagogue without scruples manipulates the voices of large numbers of the citizens attending the town meeting?

}}} She may not have a realistic shot at the presidential spot on the ticket, but she would be the perfect choice for VP.

Without seeing the speech, without knowing anything about her, that seemed likely to me.

Not really going to spend any time learning about her unless it becomes relevant. But I, being a “sexist male oppressor from the patriarchy”(*cough* bullsh… *cough*), have no issues with a female veep in any way.

I watched/listened to the whole thing while doing some mindless work. She’s so impressive. Just compare how she answers questions to Obama…who stumbles and stutters and ‘uhs’ his way through answers. No wonder Obama hardly ever does a press conference.

Wish more people would look at Carly. She’s a shining star. If you look at ANY news post online, there seems to be an army of trolls wanting to take her down…that tells me someone (Hillary? Bush?) are threatened by her and will stop at nothing to end her. This makes me want her even more.

BTW, for those who haven’t watched the speech, she talks a lot about her foreign policy plans. She’s sharp! Please please please let her make it through some of the early primaries. She deserves to be heard on the campaign trail for many more months. She is one of the few out there who speak her mind with clarity and intelligence and takes it right into the Democrat tent with no fear.

Fiorina is impressive everywhere, including in this speech.

Since the left is obsessed with identity politics and the public follows along, there is no reason for Republicans to not nominate women, blacks and Hispanics etc. As long as the Republican candidates are conservative the “identity” part doesn’t matter.

She is very well briefed on foreign policy issues. I was especially impressed with her description of China’s aspirations over the South China Sea. I have not heard any other candidate talk about this increasingly urgent issue.

At first I was merely curious about her candidacy and made contributions to her campaign as well as Walker’s and Rubio’s. But after seeing several speeches and interviews, she has become my candidate of choice. Unfortunately, she will be overlooked unless she can pull off a surprise in Iowa or New Hampshire. I think the latter is the more likely.

I will watch this.

I’ve seen her interviews and I am also quite impressed. She’s sharp, honest, has strong fundamentals and sounds like she wants to find solutions to problems, a problem-solver. Having business experience at a large corporation might be a good change from Ivy league educated attorneys…
