Carly Fiorona can create the contrast with Boxer. She is also clearly in a better position to win the primary and then prevail in the general election than DeVore. She has raised a lot more money in her campaign than DeVore in a state where it is very expensive to advertise. Fiorona has also shown throughout her career that she's willing to fight for what she thinks is right regardless of the political consequences. That spirit should remind you of another prominent conservative Republican woman. There's a reason why liberals attack Fiorona much more than they attack her two primary opponents. The left recognizes that the strongest possible opponent for Barbara Boxer is someone unafraid to take the fight right to her.

This poll indicates that Carly is not the strongest possible Boxer opponent - that DeVore, in fact, is just as strong.

Rasmussen (April 12)

Carly Fiorina (R) 38%

Barbara Boxer (D) 42%

***

Chuck DeVore (R) 39%

Barbara Boxer (D) 42%

I imagine that she has raised more money due to her contacts in business. Not exactly an endorsement in today’s environment. If she raised more money due to individual contributions, I might change my mind.
