Carly Fiorna on MSNBC just now indicates that Hillary's brother may back Mccain
Said that he is strongly considering his options and that many others at that meeting last week with her in PA are backing Mccain. She said "I won't get into details but they are very interested in Mccain."

She is on MSNBC now with Andrea Live.

14. Thats right and she is pure crap in most of what she does as well including her
job as an inept CEO. She will say and do anything, that is all the McSame campaign group has.

9. she's trying to sow the seeds. Carly can go screw herself.
I would like Denver protest specifically regarding Carly's tenure at HP. Better yet, McCain advisors are so screwed up that it could just be a general protest against them and their histories of screwing the American people. Too many possibilities for that one.

32. I don't see how any Hillary supporter could vote for McCain
Possibly outside of support for the war, where do their beliefs even line up or intersect?

I could kind of understand having a snit and not voting at all. What I can't understand is directly voting against all apparent self-interest altogether.

18. So? Maria Shriver has endorsed Obama.
Point being, lots of families disagree politically. Why should it be a bigger deal if it happens within the Clinton's family?

Hillary and her siblings were raised in a Republican family, after all. Why should it be so shocking to here that they're returning to their "roots'?

That's why MSM is trying to push it.

22. Hillary's family are Republicans so it would make sense that they would
back the Republican candidate. I've actually always considered the Clintons DINOS especially with their ties to the DLC. It's just that they aren't part of the neo-con PNAC crowd that hold the power today in the GOP

25. if true, I guess this is how he wants to spend his 15 minutes of "fame"
but I'm not going to assume it's true at this point. Carly's job is to pretend this Clinton/Obama issue is bigger than it really is.

such an announcement. He would not want to trash his sister.

34. So DU is taking Carly Fiorina for a reliable source? She's not on our side, she ran a great company
into a mountain, and she supports John Mccain.

Maybe he is--I have nutjob relatives too--but Fiorina isn't on our side and isn't a reliable source.

Geez--are some of you THAT gullible?!

None of us can either. Most of us have GOPers in the closet.

as CEO of Hewlette Packard, figures/sales dropped so low it was wiser for them to just ask her to leave!

48. She was VERY coy and did not say he would back McCain
- ssying she wouldn't say in individuals cases what they intend to do. To me, this likely means this is the strongest thing she can say.

If true, all HRC has to say is that you don't choose your siblings. Was he the brother who asked WJC to pardon someone he was representing?
