*sigh* What a choice, Boxer, or a woman capable of tanking one of the world’s leading companies.

Wow.

Here we go again. No doubt the ‘a little conservative is better than none at all’ crowd will come out and support this RINO. After all, all that matters is winning, right?

More RINOs (sigh).

Of course considering that it's far left "CALL ME SENATOR!" Babs Boxer's seat I suppose even a RINO looks pretty good...

I guess this means no corporation wants to hire her to run the business into the ground.

Yes, but at least Califronia is already run into the ground.

Will her campaign slogan be:

Not Quite as Dense as Barbara Boxer
?

She is DOA due to this:

"There is no job that is America's God-given right anymore. We have to compete for jobs as a nation. - Carly Fiorina

They aren’t even going to get that. Fiorina or Devore, the result will be the same. Boxer has that seat for life. It’s the CA way.

If she wins the primary, this will become another loss for the republicans. I’m sure the democrats encourage political inepts like this to run, just so they have an easy victory.

The prospect of unseating Boxer is going to be very tempting.
