From Fiorina’s article (thank you Steven):

Whether it was with the stimulus package or this health reform package, the Democrats’ clear solution is more government intervention and more government spending. As a businessperson I look at these programs and ask “what were the results?” The answer: massive deficit spending, higher unemployment and more government involvement in our lives.

Very good points; only telling the truth.

OTOH, it’s only a pragmatic argument against government growth/spending. Fiorina does not make any case here that government spending and redistributionism are -morally wrong-, because only the individual has the moral right to decide what to do with the fruits of her labors.

the DeVore campaign, in its eagerness to make this a liberal versus conservative race, has made claims about their rival that could be dismissed with a couple of keystrokes. Simply put, they’re not doing their homework.

Or do they not care very much, about the truth?

Isn’t this line of attack actually helpful to Fiorina (theoretically) in the general election by making her appear more moderate? If DeVore wanted to strike a death-blow, he’d hit up her incompetence at HP.
