Former Hewlett-Packard CEO turned McCain advisor Carly Fiorina has admitted that VP nominee Sarah Palin doesn’t have the experience to run a major company.
The Hill’s Blog Briefing Room reports that speaking on a St Louis radio show, Fiorina was asked if Palin had enough experience to run a major company like HP.
“No, I don’t,” Fiorina said without further explanation.
“I would just remind you that it is Barack Obama who is running for president,” Fiorina said. “Sarah Palin has more experience than Barack Obama has.”
“I find it quite stunning actually that the Barack Obama campaign is questioning Sarah Palin’s experience,” the McCain adviser added. “She has more executive experience than he does and she is the vice presidential nominee and he is the presidential nominee.”
