@je032288 You just don't get it. Her performance at HP destrroyed its stock valuations & SHE WAS FIRED FOR INCOMPETENCE!  She cared NOTHING for the lives of those who labored to make HP viable. She terminated them & cut out pensions for the remaining while she enriched herself. How can you possibly imagine that this selfish incompetent will do anything for the working & unemployed people of CA? She'll use her power to enrich herself, not to improve the quality of life of others. THINK!

@je032288 You have verified via your atrocious voting record my assessment of your low intelligence. Beyond your ability to read & transmit written info to tests via rote memory, your gpa is meaningless. In fact, it only substantiates your ability to follow directions without independent thought. What a hideous record you have! Davis was recalled; Hillary is a sell-out wimp (just like her husband); McCain is a rageaholic loser; Palin, an idiot; Whitman & Fiorina, elitist bitches - like you.

@je032288 Lets face it. Boxer is a bitch and always has been for 28 years. Boxer needs to be recalled and Carly Fiorina deserved the job. Boxer needs to be voted out and we need a recall on Boxer. She will be the same as ever for another 28 years. She is the biggest witch of California. We need her out!!!!!!! People did not know what they voted for!!!!!!!!

@WALRU11 thank you so much for that. I fly above all the haters. I truly believe you are really rude. I worked hard for my degree and earned a 3.93 gpa. I will ignore you. It is sad that you can't accept other's views and opinions. I have voted for both democrats and republicans. I voted for Gray Davis, HIllary Clinton, John McCain/Sarah Palin, Meg Whitman, Carly Fiorina and many others...GET A LIFE ....GET BOXER OUT!

[WALRU11]

@je032288 Oh, but it does. You are a product of the cultural "dumbing-down" and revisonist rightwing corporate mass media campaigns that promote "infotainment" in place of true information. Your world is one of distraction & diversion rather than intellectual immersion in facts, statistics, & truths. You live in denial & have expressed hideous ideas suffused with specious argument. It is a sad reflection on the quality of our educational system that you could be awarded a degree.

[je032288]

@WALRU11 wow your so rude. i think in this country we are allowed to have different political views. I really have no respect for people like you who don't accept others views. i may be 22 years old but i have worked hard in school and i am very successful. I have a business/economics and political science degrees. Just because i love britney Spears it has not correlation. i am no WAY voting for BARBARA BOXER...she is the one who gained so much from this seat. she is very dumb and can't speak.

[WALRU11]

@je032288 You're a a gullible 22-yr-old political neophyte, woefully misinformed & absent any willingness or apparent ability to think independently. You've swallowed political lies, platitudes, & partisan polemical rhetoric as truth when facts prove otherwise. It's fine to revere Brittany Spears for her music, but for God's sake, don't mimic her political idiocy. Fiorina was rated a horrid CEO not by "backstabbers," but by respected business publication, Portfolio magazine.

[je032288]

@WALRU11 I think she did the right thing for her company by shipping 30,000 jobs. if thats what it takes to help her company then its worth it. She was hired to do whats best for her company because she is the CEO. that shows dedication and intelligence. when she works for california she will do whats best for california. i mean california is driving jobs away. we are not welcoming or keeping jobs in ca, this is the fault of our elected officials, this includes mrs. barbara(sorry,senator boxer)

[je032288]

@WALRU11 i totally disagree with you. She may have been named the top 20 worst..but we live in a country that always involves political plotting, backstabbers, and people who don't want others to succeed. Carly has showed how amazing she is when it comes to fixing HP at its lowest points. My cousin who worked at HP has said many great things about Carly. In everything you have people who will dislike you and love you.
