    I'm so tired of (Democratic) campaigns that don't have the guts to go negative and twist the knife when they have got the goods. Whatever Plouffe did to help derail Edwards should be a point of pride for him, as I suspect it is. Anyone who refuses to educate the voters about his opponent's liabilities has failed his obligation as a candidate. #davidplouffe

    Would Carly prefer to be called "sweetie" or "honey" if she wins? I'm sure if she winks during senate hearings a lot, she'll get the Rich Lowry vote, anyway. #carlyfiorina

    I am shocked! SHOCKED! that a campaign manager would do something like that.

    I am also shocked! SHOCKED! that Matthew Broderick isn't playing him in some upcoming Broadway musical about Barack Obama (with Nathan Lane as David Axelrod and Megan Mullally as Hillary Clinton) #davidplouffe

    Politico seemed a little more on the up-and-up back then, no? My impression is they went cuckoo after the election, when there was no longer the intense political interest to drive traffic and they had to invent controversy to keep people coming back. #davidplouffe

    From now on, I will only refer to Carly Fiorina by her official title: "One of the 20 Worst American CEOs of All Time." #carlyfiorina

    @crookedE:
    From MSNBC.COM- she's #19
    "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. #carlyfiorina

    I can't with these "true conservative" idiots. If any of this ludicrousness actually works in 2010, I'm going to hop on my Medicareless-grandma-powered, green technology autogyro and putter off to Kenya. #carlyfiorina
