this poll is so false barbara boxer is up 4.5 points ahead of carly fiornia

Apart from being within the margin of error, my guess is that these polls reflect voters not yet paying attention. Whatever anyone thinks of Boxer, you can’t get away from the fact that Fiorina slashed and off-shored thousands of jobs at HP specifically to enrich her millionaire friends, and then got fired anyway, and that her views on everything from reproductive rights to climate change are far out of sync with California voters.

On the other hand, in the eyes of her opponents, Boxer’s big crimes are that she supported stimulus spending that probably stopped our sliding into the Second Great Depression, and that in general she votes in favor of the America middle class instead of multinational corporations and the far-rich.

Carly could never understand the technical details of the operations at HP. This included servers, laptop R&D and manufacturing, Printers, All in One units, and a whole slew of services. All she could do was spout jargon and lay off HP people and yes, she merged Compaq into HP, at a huge expense of both stock value and employment. Compaq was a poorly performing company with quality control issues whose absorption into HP was way too costly. Compaq celebrated while HP faltered.

Carly felt the need to explain cost cutting to HP employees in ~2002-2003 and did so by renting the convention center in San Diego at great cost. She handed out little kazoos so that employees could cheer her when she spoke. She is a legend in her own mind, but not in the minds of the rest of us.

An election of Carly as senator for California would be a disaster!

Boxer has accomplished more in the past week than Carly has in her entire career. Take a look at Boxer’s website for a list of what she has done for our kids, police and jobs on September 30th alone!
