RACE TO THE APOCALYPSE

Carly Fiorina Comes Through With The Very Witty Senate Campaign Slogan!

Wealthy corporate human Carly Fiorina, the disgraced dingbat liar from John McCain’s 2008 presidential campaign, is planning a run against Barbara Boxer in next year’s California Senate race. Cute! And yesterday she launched a hilarious FLASH website that everybody has been making fun of because it is so cheesy. You should watch the opening FLASH segment! Carly Fiorina, you guys! [Carly for California]

    Next up: Carlyfornication?

  2. Carlyfornia Dreamin’, and this on the day the Los Angeles Times headlines read “MacKenzie Phillips had sex for years with her father, John Phillips”. (Not joking here either).

  3. norbizness says at 11:15 am, September 23rd, 2009

    Where’s the “eat shit and die” button?

  4. norbizness says at 11:17 am, September 23rd, 2009

    “Hewlett Packard?” “Packard? I hardly know herd!”

  5. mephistopheles jefferson says at 11:17 am, September 23rd, 2009

    For some reason, it reminds me of a Midol ad.

  6. The Coming Soon? ending isn’t very reassuring. Is the site just asking people to beg her to run against Boxer? Or, if the momentum isn’t big, she could fall back on the dog vs. cat meme.

  7. Aggh, my eyes! Are you sure this isn’t for an America’s Next Top Idol or whatever contestant?

    Also, are you sure this website is for Carly Fiorina, specifically? Because from what I can tell, it’s just “Carly”, no last name. Which also adds to the impression that it was created by a 17-year-old girl.

  8. mookworthjwilson says at 11:19 am, September 23rd, 2009

    Vartan84: damn…you beat me to that…

  9. V572625694 says at 11:20 am, September 23rd, 2009

    Jeez we already got a goobernor who says “Kali-fornja.”

    By the way, Carly’s chances would improve if she were hotter-looking. Not fair, but that’s the way it is here.d

    From the site:

    Please keep me up to date on Carly’s activities:

     No thank you!
     Die with festering boils!
     I’d rather have a Barney-Frank colonoscopy!

  10. The Church of Realism says at 11:21 am, September 23rd, 2009

    She’ll get my vote only if she can prove she slept with Mackenzie Phillips too.

  11. There’s a few thousand ex-HP employees in CA who would love nothing more than to watch her fail.

  12. bureaucrap says at 11:22 am, September 23rd, 2009

    Suggestion to Carly: The “Contribute” button should have the subhead, “So I don’t have to spend any of my own d*&n money”.

  13. earnestcivilservant says at 11:23 am, September 23rd, 2009

    Dogs vs cats, Carly vs Boxer…so is Carly saying she’s a dog? Or just a bitch?

  14. Country Club Jihadi says at 11:25 am, September 23rd, 2009

    Got Estrogen?

    GnarlyPornia is more like it.

  15. SayItWithWookies says at 11:25 am, September 23rd, 2009

    Gah — nice colors. I wish her all the best in her bid to unseat the incumbent, Mayor McCheese.

  16. !!!

  17. shadowMark says at 11:26 am, September 23rd, 2009

    She’s young, hip, happening. Vote for Carly Fiorina: She’s a grrrl!

  18. Buzz Feedback says at 11:26 am, September 23rd, 2009

    Jesus Christ. Give CA back to the fukking Mexicans.

  19. This would be an amusing flameout to observe, if I were an American. One more utterly mediocre business failure whose biggest claim to fame is a highly public firing at the company she headed and nearly drove into the ground, now going into politics.

    Actually, that sounds she’ll be the next Republican president…

  20. thefrontpage says at 11:31 am, September 23rd, 2009

    What would John, Mackenzie and Chyna Phillips have to say about this?

    Or Mick Jagger, for that matter?

  21. It has those hysterical little girl Palinesque multiple exclamation points!!!!!

    But I really liked her Anticipation.

    And tomorrow we might not be together
    I’m no prophet, I don’t know natures way
    So I’ll try to see into your eyes right now
    And stay right here, ’cause these are the good old days.

    Anticipation, Anticipation
    Is making me late
    Is keeping me waiting

  22. Texan Bulldoggette says at 11:35 am, September 23rd, 2009

    OT but why aren’t you liveblogging Libya’s Khadafy (SP) speech at the UN? He’s a walking SNL skit; I can just hear his interpreter saying ‘oh shit…do I have to say this crap out loud?’

  23. queeraselvis v 2.0: You should squat on that domain name. That will be a lucrative porn site name some day.

  24. Don’t flatter yourself, Carly. Your legacy has touched more households than you’re willing to comprehend.

  25. Four Doors says at 11:40 am, September 23rd, 2009

    TEEN GIRL SQUAD..! The ugly one!

  26. ManchuCandidate says at 11:40 am, September 23rd, 2009

    That’s fiorinacated up website.

  27. This is the first political website to show a suppository that asks for money.

  28. Those buttons look like Quaaludes, which, California, yeah.

  29. magic titty says at 11:43 am, September 23rd, 2009

    mookworthjwilson: Is that what her husband said to her dad?

    Too soon?

  30. Crank Tango says at 11:44 am, September 23rd, 2009

    is this the place where I get to rant about my experiences with shitty HP computers? And how I traded one in for a vaio, and then after the next bad experience switched to mac?

  31. the problem child says at 11:45 am, September 23rd, 2009

    Peering deep into the abyss, and seeing blonde on blonde action!

  32. Vartan84: Today, we are all Mackenzie Phillips’ father.

  33. DemmeFatale says at 11:50 am, September 23rd, 2009

    But will she ever be big enough for “Dancing With The Stars?”

  34. Capricatony says at 11:53 am, September 23rd, 2009

    That is how Schwarzenegger pronounces it.

  35. rev_matt_y says at 11:53 am, September 23rd, 2009

    queeraselvis v 2.0: That was my first thought as well. Either her campaign staff hates her and is actively trying to derail her or they are too stupid to be working on a campaign.

  36. Monsieur Grumpe says at 11:57 am, September 23rd, 2009

    Rejected campaign slogan ideas:

    This time for sure!

    HP? What’s that?

    I’m not Arnold!

    I screwed up HP and I’m still rich! Think what I can do for California!

  37. Senator Boxer better guard her phone records.

  38. queeraselvis v 2.0 says at 11:59 am, September 23rd, 2009

    rev_matt_y: Judging from her website, I’d say all of the above.

  39. Uncertainty Vice-Principal says at 11:59 am, September 23rd, 2009

    Crank Tango:

    is this the place where I get to rant about my experiences with shitty HP computers? And how I traded one in for a vaio, and then after the next bad experience switched to mac?

    No that’s Jerry Springer for Nerds, but you get to throw chairs at the old computers.

  40. Looks like the website for an anti-depressant. Which it’s not at all. Not even close.

  41. Perrys Mollycoddler says at 12:04 pm, September 23rd, 2009

    Wait…but her last name isn’t Fornia…it’s Fiorina…do we really need a dyslexic governor?!

  42. teebob2000 says at 12:05 pm, September 23rd, 2009

    Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. She single-handedly nearly destroyed a huge multinational corporation.

    So again I say, ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.

  43. Downtheroadapiece says at 12:05 pm, September 23rd, 2009

    Ugh.

    So it begins, the campaign for our next governor. Dear god. Anyone got a spare room to rent in say Colorado or Maine or any place not California for about a year or so? I don’t think I can handle another election cycle in this circus. I’m a great roomie. I won’t eat your food and my toddler is mostly housebroken. Mostly.

  44. Perrys Mollycoddler says at 12:08 pm, September 23rd, 2009

    At least you don’t live in Texas where the governor here says things like, “I know the overwhelming evidence points to that man’s innocence, but clearly he’s guilty so let’s kill him.”

  45. I would like to write on a wall to support Carly–why is there no text-entry thingy where I can do this? We did so much for Glenn Beck.

  46. Ich bin eine involved already.

  47. Gavin’s way prettier than Carly. Even in a dress.

    But put Gavin in a speedo against a big banner that says “Carly Fiorina f**cked up HP” and its all over.

  48. Is a Carly a breed of cat? Because a Boxer is a breed of dog.

  49. Bowdoin: (Obvious, but couldn’t resist)
    Fiorina’s so vain,
    She prob’ly thinks this post is about her

  50. hiphophitler says at 12:36 pm, September 23rd, 2009

    Well, at least we know her stand on abortions; turn them all into websites.

  51. Neoyorquino says at 12:51 pm, September 23rd, 2009

    “Stopped into a church I passed along the way. Well, I got down on my knees (Got down on my knees), and I pretend to pray . . .” Well, she’s got the Republican family values down pat.

  52. BerkeleyFarm says at 12:55 pm, September 23rd, 2009

    OMG vanity campaign much?

    If she wins the nomination (by some weird stretch), Boxer is going to eat her for lunch. (Boxer has been fortunate in her opponents.)

  53. so we should contribute to elect a dog, which is good, which is day, which is carly, rather than a cat, which is bad, which is night, which is babs. i don’t think i get it. am i a dumb?

  54. RoscoePColtraine says at 1:06 pm, September 23rd, 2009

    At first glance I thought it was a website for a department store. Mervyn’s or Linens-N-Things or some other recently defunct place.

  55. Extemporanus says at 1:12 pm, September 23rd, 2009

    SayItWithWookies: The Hamburglar is going to help her steal the election.

  56. AbstinenceOnly Ed says at 1:16 pm, September 23rd, 2009

    V572625694: Because Feinstein’s such a fox?

    Carlyfornia nightmare!!!!!!

  57. Extemporanus says at 1:22 pm, September 23rd, 2009

    Like Web 2.0, Gullyfonia is doubly blessed!

    Noted “female Republican” billionaire Internet maven Meg “Ebay” Whitman just launched her goobernatorial campaign with an event in Fullerton, home of eyepatch-panty-sniffing former state assemblyman Mike Duvall.

    So messy!

  58. house of the blue lights says at 1:23 pm, September 23rd, 2009

    So what does “carlyfornicate” MEAN exactly?

  59. Baconbits says at 1:31 pm, September 23rd, 2009

    Four Doors: Sooooo good!

    So is Boxer What’s Her Face? And would that make Gavin Cheerleader?

  60. glamourdammerung says at 1:54 pm, September 23rd, 2009

    Texan Bulldoggette: I am sorry, but I think Gaddafi is actually somewhat reasonable. If someone bombed my house because they were trying to distract the public about the Iranians bombing a Marine base and killed off a good chunk of my family, I would want blood too.

  61. Disgraced, dingbat liar! hahahahahahaha

    I have nothing to add to that.

  62. Much as I despise Senator Barbara “Fucking Your Way To The TOP! Boxer, this promises to be an Electoral Slaughter Of Epic Proportions.

    The Java Karly has a better chance of winning.

  63. Manos: Hands of Fate says at 2:49 pm, September 23rd, 2009

    That stupid slogan sounds more like a new show on ABC. And that flash atrocity looks like its inro credits.

  64. Georgia Burning says at 3:06 pm, September 23rd, 2009

    If Carly does to California what she did to HP, China will get that Oregon border they’ve always wanted.

  65. Her buttons need nipples.

  66. queeraselvis v 2.0 says at 4:37 pm, September 23rd, 2009

    house of the blue lights: Translation: “Fuck Carly.” Except, ew.

  67. Johnny Zhivago says at 6:01 pm, September 23rd, 2009

    Actually, if you poke around, you’ll see that Carlyfornia *IS* some kind of goth clothing store.

    May the lawsuits begin.

    My bets are still on Karla: http://www.karlaforsenate.com

  68. Georgia Burning says at 7:52 pm, September 23rd, 2009

    Johnny Zhivago: Karla’s got my vote, for one she didn’t steal her website font from a Macy’s ad

  69. Exterminatus says at 12:48 am, September 25th, 2009

    teebob2000: I count three multi-nationals destroyed by Carly during her tenure: the last remnants of DEC/Digital, Compaq, and HP of course. I will also mention that she essentially eliminated the research department at HP, and managed to kill off two perfectly good processor architectures, Alpha and HP-RISC, for the horribly shitty ia64(Itanic) processor line from Intel. Managing to essentially kill two separate UNIX codebases was also not so impressive on her part. I’m having trouble thinking why even she would think that she would be even marginally competent as a janitor at this point.
