Poll-plummeting Carly Fiorina attracts only dozens in New Hampshire just minutes after filing <tr>

Carly Fiorina's star power faded Thursday as fast as it has dimmed nationally since the mini polling boom she earned in the second Republican debate nearly two months ago.

Just a half-hour after a few hundred supporters gathered at the state capitol in Concord to see the the former tech executive sign her New Hampshire Primary candidacy papers, just a few dozen turned out to hear her speak at a restaurant less than a block away.

After a three-minute stump speech, FIorina opened the floor for questions. Just one came, from an eight-year-old girl named Anna whose home-schooling mother brought her to see the would-be president.

A pregnant five-second pause followed while Fiorina searched the small crowd for a second question. None came.

'Okay – well, eat up!' she urged. 'Thanks everybody. Enjoy!'

When Fiorina and her staff left, a table half-full of sandwiches and cookies still remained.

The lone question was precious but typical kiddie fare: 'Why do you want to run for president?'

Snarly Purina is going to the dogs.

Go Snarly...well, go away.

That was an excellent question from that little girl. Tell us, Carly, why DO you want to run for president? I guess it was hard for Carly to “face” the facts of her fading campaign. (snicker)

THE LEFTOVERS: The Fiorina event had free food, but not enough people to eat it

Signs a campaign is in trouble #42: free food is still on table after the event (those sammiches look pretty good!)

Yeah, really. Even if it was Jeb Bush event I’d grab some of the free grub.

I’ll say it looks pretty good! I’d like to make a dent in that spread, but I wouldn’t vote for Carly.

Carly must be desperate.

Hannity said on his radio show that’s she’s going on The View tomorrow.

God Almighty. How low-life desperate do you have to be to do THAT?

Rock bottom.

They do look good. Plenty of sammies but all out of astroturf.

I don’t see no cheese. I like cheese. Do you like cheese? I could go for some cheese right now. How about you? This is why Carly is such a loser.

No cheese.

Looks like they left a plate full of cookies, too.

Outrageous!

Poor, poor Carly, she believed the liberal media hype!

That’s what I was thinking. Quit wasting time and money, retire and enjoy it. So many of us would do that if only we could, that it pains us to see people squandering what could be a wonderful retirement life.

“those sammiches look pretty good!”

Agree, but still not worth the torture of having to look at her face. Might be worth considering a dumpster dig though, once they throw the food out.

They sure do look yummy. Heck, if I was there, even if I didn’t and don’t support her, I’d stay for the free grub and come up with a stupid question to ask her. See, Trump isn’t the only one with an ego. Carly believed the media hype about herself. That doesn’t take away from those delicious looking sammies though.

She’d have done a lot better if she’d accepted Trump’s proffered olive branch in the 2nd debate.

Well, maybe not a lot better, but a little better.

Now, the only thing anyone thinks of when they think of her is that snarling FACE.

(oops, Trump was right about that!)
