I've never been comfortable with Carly Fiorina because she ran as a no-issues moderate for the 2010 senate race in California, and she hasn't articulated any conservative principles before 2015.
But she has spoken up in other ways – just not very conservative-like:
Immediately after 9/11, Carly gave a speech where, in light of the 3,000 Americans who had just been slaughtered, her first concern was for... Muslims.
And as a business leader, I experienced a whole other set of emotions - first and foremost concern for the safety of our employees and their families. Concern for the security of our employees who are of Middle Eastern descent or who practice the Muslim religion here in the US and abroad. Concern for employees who are traveling, and how to get them home to their families as fast as possible. And then a concern for the safety of customers and partners located in the World Trade Center complex, in the Pentagon, and in the airline industry.
"...and then concern for World Trade Center victims." Well, I'm glad the victims fit into her list of priorities, somewhere. But in case you are thinking this is simply a paragraph written out of order, there's more:
There was once a civilization that was the greatest in the world.
It was able to create a continental super-state that stretched from ocean to ocean, and from northern climes to tropics and deserts. Within its dominion lived hundreds of millions of people, of different creeds and ethnic origins.
And this civilization was driven more than anything, by invention. Its architects designed buildings that defied gravity. Its mathematicians created the algebra and algorithms that would enable the building of computers, and the creation of encryption.

Like Carly, I’m concerned about muslims in the U.S. -
I want to know why the Hell they’re still allowed in???
Why haven’t we rounded them all up?
She’s an ex-CEO.
For better or for worse CEO’s are unelectable in 2015 America. The class warfare has had too much time to metastasize.
Look what they did to Romney.
RE: For better or for worse CEOs are unelectable in 2015 America. The class warfare has had too much time to metastasize.
OK, with this in mind, what does that make Donald Trump?
The GOPe is comfortable with her.
Thats enough difference for me.
Bump
She’s been looking for a job since getting bounced at HP. She’s now just the designated Hillary hitter doing the work of the GOP establishment. She is not fit to be POTUS.
And from her time at hp, I believe she was not a very good salesperson.
That’s why we select Carly as VP.
She can kick butt and help Cruz win the election.
For 8 years she can help deliver Ted’s clear message.
In 2024, at 70 she’s unlikely to run for the top seat.
Hell. No. I. Don’t. Want. This. Woman. As. VP.
I agree, something was just off but I could not pinpoint it. The more research I do on her, the less I like her. I’ve learned to trust my gut.
Carly is no conservative. She’s being paid to run as an attack dog by The Cheap Labor Express.
Initially I thought she might be useful to attack Hillary, but now that she has set her sights on Ted Cruz and Donald Trump she has exposed herself as a tool of the Establishment.

Candidate Obama was an eloquent speaker, too.
The Establishment Media and Republicans are setting up Carly as the next hatchet person to go after Trump. She wins a debate she wasn’t even in? Please. The handwriting is on the wall. In the next debate, Carly will be on the stage and will go after Trump so viciously it will even make Megyn blush. Then the commentators will sit back and smile, saying:”See? We didn’t do anything to Trump. That’s all Carly.”
Carly is the next one to have blood coming out of her eyes and “whatever.” The veil has been lifted, America, now open your eyes and see.
In the past, it was important not to be in Washington, but now voters are looking outside the political class. This is why Kasich had good answers, he did not play well mentioning all his experience. Cruz is attaching to this wave by calling out the GOP leadership!
It is important to note that the "outsiders" collectively are polling over 50%. Although Trump increased after the debate clearly not at the rate as the other three. Hopefully they all do not destroy each other and we get Bush.
Carly is RINO, she is just very good at not looking like one.
Yep, and ON THE ISSUES also rates Trump's fellow presidential candidate Lindsay Graham as a "Hard-Core Conservative" after considering his public stance on all issues:
Yeah, having a VP candidate who can't carry her home state and puts zero additional electoral votes in play is very attractive.
