4. Don't get me wrong I prefer that I had to think for a minute. Even after

7. Why would HP hire someone who can't win an election after pumping $140MM into it?

10. Another inbred CEO...just what HP needs.
Didn't know he had been on the BOD, but that makes sense. She wasn't doing anything else, why not CEO?

9. CEO's reach their positions by having outstanding social skills.
Analytical and/or entrepreneurial skills, not so much. Ms. Whitman is a poster-child of this phenomenon.
