By virtue of what you posted, and intended as criticism of CF, it's clear you have no real understanding of how the economy works, or how a business grows ... or contracts. You are only looking at one side of the equation. You are ignoring, or not even seeing more likely, how the company grew and how the entire tech industry went through tough times. Performance in that environment is relative, as is survival for that matter. I remember at one point HP was kind of a joke in the high tech world but CF turned that around. Your view of this is not unique, as many uniformed people quickly leap to similar conclusions and that is how, and why, the Democrats can readily demagogue it.

Do you envy her for making $21M? Just wondering given that aspect of your comment.

Bottom line: this woman has her act together. She's actualy a poster child for feminist success. Anyone who can rise from Secretary to CEO has, beyond any doubt, leadership and management ability. That is MUCH more that the majority of the Republican field can claim. You can draw your own conclusions about her ability stacks up with the people running with D's behind their names.
