Back during the government shutdown of 2013, Carly Fiorina told CNN’s The Lead that she felt badly for Boehner and blamed the shutdown on Ted Cruz and Obama:
Everybody could see this train wreck coming. I actually feel badly for John Boehner. I think this is Ted Cruz and President Obama’s shutdown. I think Ted Cruz’s tactics were wrong.
There’s no honor in charging a hill that you know you can’t take, only casualties, although Ted Cruz maybe got name recognition and money along the way. But President Obama wanted this shutdown. And Ted Cruz played right into his hands.
She correctly noted that Obama’s refusal to negotiate led to the shutdown, but said that when Obama publicly refuses over and over to negotiate, he empowers the ‘flamethrowers’.
Carly defended calling it Ted Cruz’s shutdown later in the interview in response to Tapper noting that most Republicans in both the Senate and the House don’t want the government shutdown:
“That’s why I called it Ted Cruz’s shutdown as well as president Obama’s”

Carly gave a great PERFORMANCE. We have to quit looking at performers and listen to those who have something meaningful to say. Those who have integrity, a coherent conservative ideology and a record of achievement.
FioRINO gets her current money from univision. Same people who fund John McCANE
Doesn’t matter what Ms. Fiorina says....she went to the dark side today and she’s going down...
The Trumpster is back and he’s ready to roll....
WOOOOHOOOO!!!
Looks like Carly Fiorina was on the wrong side.
Next to impossible to find a pure candidate. Hell all the dirt being exposed to date is by Republicans/ “Conservative” talking heads. Wait until the Dem machine has at it.
Sneaky Carly.
Absolutely right, HL27.
Isn’t this the greatest news!!!!
WOOOHOOO!!!!
They used to call women like Carly something back in the day..GOLD DIGGERS!
Take a long look at her rise to her position of wealth.
I don’t know why so many freepers were hyperventilating over this woman.
Every thing I heard about her before the `kids’ table debate’ was negative.
Damn! Doesn’t anyone have clean hands? How about Jindal? Cruz? I like them both. I’m a one issue candidate this election. I don’t want what has happened to California to go countrywide. It is called ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION (AKA Future Democrat voters).
Yeah and watch me not vote for Jeb just the same. :)
Wow. Because she didn’t support Cruz in a Senate Run, she is kicked to the curb? Wow. That is ridiculous. I am not a fan of hers but sheesh what a dumb reason to give up support. Oh well. It is clear that we want to knock down everyone just like 2008 so that Hillary will get in.
Correction: it all has to do with the letter “W” ... for “Woman” ...
Well, if what this Right Scoop blogger said is true...... paybacks are hell. Carly will NOT be the VP candidate on the GOP Ticket with Cruz.
Carly is only there because we have some on our side that buy in to the crap about how we need to prove we value women as much as the Left claims to value them and to “offset any “advantage” the Left gets for having the XX-chromosome hag of Hillary on their roster. She has many good attributes but her candidacy has been tainted by the real reason she was nudged into running.
