You are welcome to take it for what it is worth. I, however, was there. I watched from Building 1 in Boise, Idaho, as they lauded Fiorina's ascent. I was there when just a few months later Lucent tanked - an afterthought to many.

I was there when she laid off 10,000 people - many of whom were at our site and included many people like my father who had been there for 20+ years and were just about to retire with full benefits (ie healthcare coverage for life) - at the same time she decided she needed two more private corporate jets to fly around in.

I was there when she re-branded HP with the "HP Invent" logo at the very same time she slashed HP's R&D budget to almost nothing and ended all of HP's relationships with university research.

I was there for the Compaq merger, which 2 in 3 HP employees voted AGAINST knowing it was a money-losing gambit for HP, but which would enrich Carly herself to the tune of nearly $40 million in one bonus.

I was there as she strong-armed the last 2% of shareholders to okay that deal - a bank which she threatened to take all HP's business away from if they didn't okay the deal.

I was there as both the Hewlett and Packard families abandoned the Board in disgust at both Fiorina and her tactics, divesting themselves completely of HP stock despite the huge losses.

I was there when she announced that only VP's and higher would be eligible for corporate profit-sharing, when it used to be that every single employee was eligible for a piece of the action.

Yes, the media did a massive hit-job on Romney. But Fiorina has it coming - and in spades.
