I didn’t mean that the reason for her being fired wasn’t (very) public knowledge, I meant that you seem to be endorsing her for VP here yet you barely broached the topic of her biggest professional misstep.

The reasoning behind Fiorina’s firing is (very) public knowledge. I think three different books have been published on the topic.

And I entirely agree that mortgage lenders were at fault — but so many people are quick to blame an abstract concept of the economy for the credit crunch. There really was a direct cause and affect — not some invisible hand squeezing the available credit.

Mortgage lenders needed a bail out because they acted irresponsibly, as did the thousands of people who took out loans they couldn’t afford.

I wonder if Fiorina will still be in the running after her Viagra comments this week.

I think people will want to know more about why she was fired from HP before they jump on her bandwagon.
