Carly Fiorina and a handful of other possible vice presidents for Ted Cruz are submitting tax returns, said a source familiar with the process Tuesday, another step in the Texas senator's vetting process.
Cruz's campaign has not ruled out naming a vice presidential candidate before he wins the GOP nomination. And Fiorina, a popular Cruz surrogate and a former presidential candidate, quickly emerged this week as someone the Cruz campaign confirmed it was vetting. Fiorina's team said Monday that she was being vetted and going through the "standard stuff," but a Fiorina spokesman on Tuesday did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Earlier on Tuesday, however, Cruz distanced himself from another possible vice president: Ohio Gov. John Kasich, with whom Cruz has struck an unusual pact in several of the remaining states on the calendar. "I think that is very, very premature. I respect John Kasich, he is a good and capable man, but I think at this point we've made a decision about allocation of resources," Cruz said to Indiana radio host Tony Katz, pushing back on the idea that the alliance could be a precursor to a ticket. That's an idea that has been pushed by at least one major Cruz donor. Cruz trails Donald Trump in the delegate race, but it is possible that no GOP nominee will reach the convention with the 1,237 delegates needed to clinch the nomination on the first ballot. Delegates there will also choose the vice presidential nominee on a separate ballot.

reminds me of that picture of hitler looking at the miniature of his future architectural buildings LONG after there was any chance for victory
Carly Failarino, perfect choice for Cruz
She has roughly as much chance of being Taylor Swift or the Black Widow as she does being VP. ;)
The vajayjay vote
..Carly Failarino, perfect choice for Cruz...
She should take her 53 million and buy a nice beach place in Eluthera never to be heard from again.
Cruz playing make believe.
She should hold out to see if she can get a better offer from Bernie.
Cruz is delusional. He hasn’t a snowball’s chance in hell
Time to pack it in Ted. Although it is an interesting choice that would probably demolish Hildabeasts sexism remarks if she was on a GOP VP ticket. She would be forced to stick to other issues instead of harping on GOP hating women until November..
The irony will be if Clinton picks Elizabeth Warren as VP.
Can he borrow her campaign manager, too?
Not sure who is more loathsome, Cruz or FioRINO. I hope neither one of them is anywhere near the VP slot under Trump this fall.
This is funny. FiaRINO sending into to Lyin’ Ted? This is a new definition of “ waste of time” .
Are face lifts tax deductible?

Mine too...
