Isn't Barbara Boxer a U.S. Senator?  So................that would mean that Boxer doesn't have a "district", since each state has two U.S. Senators that represent their ENTIRE states.

Government 101, Pagan.  I guess you missed that class.   ;)

One thing you will learn about Pagan; he doesn't care.

Carly is a Skank, she was fired from HP.  If that is all the GOP has, what a sad state of affairs

  ROFL and boxer is a what Fox ?

It just goes to show the GOP either doesn't give a shit about that District or they don't believe that they can get a Conservative elected there.

In any case Carly screwed HP and they fired her for her incompetence so what next?  Why not go into politics where incompetence is a qualification ......

Maybe you ought to read a bit of the history of that Skank Fiorina instead of Parroting the Party and you'd get a clue eh?

The Skank was fired for lack of operational skills,  arrogance, gender bias, and incompetence just for starters.  Under her regime she took a once highly respected company and drove it into the ground.  The Board fired her and HP has generally recovered but the damage was still done.

Like knowing who that Skank Fiorina is?

Been in the business for 20 years and know HP pretty well, so yeah knowing WTF your talking about is important.  Try doing a little bit of a background check on Fiorina and why HP fired her ya know.

I never did understand the Compaq merger.  I hated those computers, and couldn't understand why HP would dilute their brand with that.

Yeah, know what's funny?  ComPaq name came from "Compatibility and Quality", they had neither.  I hated working on ComPaq servers, they sucked.  Then HPUX and the 9000's were are workhorse and they turned their back on them completely.  Friend of our family's was head of production at one of their printer factory's, he was there when they built quality.  Anyway I'm glad to see HP coming back and also since they've picked up EDS I'm already seeing the quality starting to pick up from EDS.  EDS really went to shit, but since HP picked them up over the last year I've been seeing their quality pick up, they still have a way to go but it's going in the right direction.

Compaqs were the worst computers on the planet, hands down.
