McCain Economic Adviser Carly Fiorina's Golden Parachute - ABC News - 16 Sep 08
"ABC News' Lisa Chinn and Jennifer Parker report: Republican ticket mates John McCain and Sarah Palin Monday blasted corporate executives who leave their company with a 'golden parachute' and pledged to "stop multimillion dollar payouts" to CEOs, seeming to forget their own top economic adviser Carly Fiorina walked away with $45 million, including a $21.4 million severance package when she was dismissed by Hewlett Packard in 2005."
Pretty soon no one in the McCain camp will be talking to reporters. Bad timing on the honesty thing by Carly.
Fiorina in the Shadows After McCain, Palin Comments - Atlanta Journal-Constitution - 17 Sep 08
"Don’t expect to see Carly Fiorina on television talking up her candidate, Sen. John McCain, for at least the next few days.
The public face of McCain’s economic policy has already canceled an appearance on CNN’s 'American Morning' on Wednesday, and McCain aides said she might be hard to find on the remote for a few days. The fade-out follows Fiorina’s statements Tuesday about both Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin’s and McCain’s fitness to run the company she once headed, Hewlett-Packard.
Speaking on the McGraw Milhaven Show on KTRS radio in St. Louis, Fiorina was praised by Milhaven as having worked her way up from being a secretary to being what some called the most powerful woman in business, before she was ousted from Hewlett-Packard. Milhaven went on to say that in tapping Palin, McCain 'thinks she has the experience to be president.'
But, he continued, 'Do you think she has the experience to run a major company like Hewlett-Packard?' 'No, I don’t,' Fiorina said."
