Osamo showed his true colors by picking a Washington insider who engenders as much excitement as paint dry. Change? please, more of the same. Osamo should have picked Clinton. If he loses... and it's ridiculous that this election is this close given the last 8 years, it's because he lacked judgment and let his over sized ego get in the way. maybe he can drag out those Styrofoam columns for his next book tour "The Audacity of Stupdity" btw..

My husband works for HP. Carly took on a loser Compaq!! What did Carly get 17 MILLION!!.That was just for the merger, and 21.1 MILLION severance. What did the employees get NO RAISES!,NO BONUS, LONGER WORK HOURS FOR 4+ YEARS!! Carly did not turn company around, she outsourced and shipped jobs overseas. Dell shot up because HP customer service and response tanked. she was asked to leave by board, of be fired. Her choice. HP is were it is now because of William Amelio and other former Dell executives. As a rebublican I am sick, that Mcain would have Carly as is financial advisor. Carly Fiorina!!!
