The Battle Over ‘Best Campaign Websites’ Continues

Carly Fiorina, presidential candidate, proved that when someone smacks her with a verbal night stick, she punches back faster, harder, and lower. On his show, MSNBC’s Meet The Press, Chuck Todd asked Carly Fiorina about her failure to register her website, carlyfiorina.org. This oversight left the Rachel Maddow Show an opening to purchase it.

Carly Fiorina’s Claim To Technology

This technical flub is especially embarrassing for the candidate, because she touts herself as a technology whiz. On the Good Morning America show when she?announced her candidacy, she asserted her?claim?to,

?Understand[s] technology, which is a tool to reimagine government and re-engage citizens in the process of government.?

Carlyfiorina.org

Rachel Maddow’s people used Carly Fiorina’s website, carlyfiorina.org, to say:

?”Carly Fiorina failed to register this domain.

So we are using it to tell you how many people she laid off at Hewlett-Packard.

It was this many:”

L L L L?(30,000 unhappy faces)

Clearly Carly Fiorina was not pleased with Todd for bringing up domaingate – that she lost control of her website namesake and also questioning why she?was fired from Hewlett-Packard.

Carly Fiorina’s Payback

So what does this GOP presidential hopeful do? Fiorina shows her snarky side by tweeting Todd with a head-spinning response. Snarky as used here is defined as:

“Being wittily sarcastic with a hint of being an a**-hole.”

Check out the Carly Fiorina tweet to Chuck Todd:

It seems that Carly Fiorina rushed out right after the show and bought ChuckTodd.org. The just-birthed site redirects us to Fiorina’s presidential campaign site.

I guess Carly Fiorina learned this business lesson well: paybacks are hell.

Our vote stays with carlyfiorina.org registered by the Maddow camp as the battle over the best campaign websites continues. Who will register who next?
