The Woman Who Would Be Senator

Meet Carly Fiorina, who's running against Barbara Boxer in California:
A consummate self-promoter, Fiorina was busy pontificating on the lecture circuit and posing for magazine covers while her company floundered. She paid herself handsome bonuses and perks while laying off thousands of employees to cut costs. The merger Fiorina orchestrated with Compaq in 2002 was widely seen as a failure. She was ousted in 2005.

THE STAT: HP stock lost half its value during Fiorina’s tenure.

Yup. That's just what California needs -- a Senator who nearly ran a thriving company into the ground.
