Changing Blondes in the Middle of the Stream

Out with the old blonde















Carly Fiorina, former CEO of Hewlitt Packard







Like Manny Ramirez taking batting practice, Carly Fiorina casually swatted McCain's pro-life record, the Republican Party's harsh anti-abortion platform, and Cindy McCain's refusal to release her tax records out of the park. Fiorina had been anointed as the attack dog on gender issues, accusing Palin's critics of "sexism'' in investigating her background.







Until today. Fiorina is out. Her crime?






She said she didn't think Sarah Palin could run a major American company like Hewlett-Packard. Same goes for John McCain, Barack Obama and Joe Biden.




McCain is furious. She is OUT. Again.

In With the New Blonde


Lynn Forester de Rothschild, the American-born baroness spent part of her afternoon defecting – from her political party’s presidential candidate – in full view of the press and a spray of television cameras.

Lynn's attractiveness for McCain - Palin? She used to be a prominent fund raiser for Clinton.

Today's "de Rothschild" quote: "The people, who are the rednecks, or whoever, are bitter. If bitter is the easiest way for you to rationalize that I truly, with all my heart, believe that John McCain would be a great President, then call me bitter."

Something tells me adding another rich blonde who likes to wear pearls is not going to endear McCain-Palin to the women's vote in this country.
