Carly Fiorina, who (supposedly) halted her long-time work as a Republican loyalist to be a fifth columnist working to torpedo Hillary Clinton's campaign from within with race-baiting statements, has now gone back to her first love.
Republican John McCain enlisted the high-profile help of Carly Fiorina, once the most powerful businesswoman in the United States, on Saturday to try to get women behind his campaign for the White House.
...Fiorina, a top economic adviser and head of a Republican get-out-the-vote effort, empathized with the former first lady's experience when she took questions from across the country during a McCain campaign "virtual town-hall meeting."
...Texas-born Fiorina has become an increasingly visible advocate for McCain, speaking publicly about his economic positions and ripping into Obama over tax policies and Iraq.
...Fiorina became the head of Hewlett-Packard Co. in 1999 and in 2002 oversaw the then-largest merger in the U.S. technology sector when Hewlett-Packard bought rival computer maker Compaq Computer Corp. The company's poor performance forced her exit as chairman and chief executive in 2005.
"She usually tells me what to say," McCain quipped about Fiorina on Saturday.
...But McCain was quick to point out political differences with Clinton, saying he thought the Supreme Court decision in "Roe vs Wade" on abortion was a bad one.
All emphasis in the excerpt above is mine, but that last bit really is the proof, were it truly needed, that Fiorina was never more than a GOP viper at Hillary's breast. It's OK for women to control their careers but not their bodies? Mr McCain and Ms Fiorina, pull the other one.
