...former Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina tried out an “I feel your pain” sales pitch yesterday, reports the Philadelphia Bulletin:
“Carly Fiorina, economic adviser to presidential candidate John McCain, yesterday told Pennsylvania reporters the senator can win the state despite its economically ‘hurting’ residents …
“’I know, as John McCain knows, the people of Pennsylvania are hurting right now,’ Ms. Fiorina said. ‘They are concerned about their jobs; they are concerned about the ability to stay in their homes; they are concerned about the rising prices of food and fuel; and they are concerned about our continued ability to compete in this 21st-century economy. And that's why I think John McCain will do very well in Pennsylvania.’”
Fiorina wouldn’t be the obvious choice to deliver this kind of message from the ticket, but it’s a message McCain wants delivered and Fiorina’s giving it her best shot.
A sign she’s still in the mix? As they say in the New York Lotto: Hey, you never know.
