Former Hewlett-Packard Chief Executive Carly Fiorina will be the Republican Party nominee in the November race against Democratic incumbent U.S. Sen. Barbara Boxer.
Fiorina was the top vote-getter in Tuesday's primary election in a Republican field that included former Rep. Tom Campbell and conservative Assemblyman Chuck DeVore (R-Irvine). ..............."
So Sarah held a gun to the voters heads and forced them to vote for Carly?
Yes she did. Lots of GOP IOUs in her pocketbook now.
Go ahead. She's got another 1.5 million fans there, so she won't miss you.
I agree...
RE: “She’s not going to beat Boxer.”
*******************
Unfortunately, I totally agree with that statement.
AMEN
To 232 - LOL
If they were reliable, they wouldn't be RINOs.
In any event, Fiorina would be a far sight better than Boxer, and almost certainly better than Campbell. DeVore might have appealed better to conservatives, but he simply did not have the money, organization, and recognition to compete. Campbell was in total free-fall, and still out-polled DeVore 3:2.

They are like a 4 year old throwing a tantrum.”

Best post I’ve seen here tonight — thanks for the dose of sanity.
Amen brother. The best thing this week will be the end of that photo.
RE: “I remember when old Pat Brown was Gov.
Reagan had to clean up after him.
Jerry Brown is a total loon.”
*****************
More than a loon, moonbeam has a not-so-nice past. Would love to see LAPD open its files on him.......
That was after Fiorina was ousted from HP.
That was based on early returns. I see in the final tally that DeVore actually came barely short of catching Campbell. I guess Orange County probably had some of the later reporting precincts.
Protecting the GOP over protecting and strengthening America.
“What part of retaking the Senate with a veto-proof majority to overturn Obamacare do you not understand? Fiorina helps in that effort. Boxer does not.”
You need a tranquilizer of some sort. You cognitive processes are no longer functioning properly.
> It is saying much if we retake the Senate majority and overturn Obamacare.
Nice thought, but 2 problems.
1) FioRINO is going to hightail to the left now that she’s got the nom. She’s gonna make Tom Campbell look like Jim DeMint.
2) Witch Babs is going to hit FioRINO HARD with her disastrous job-killing reign at HP. In a deep recession.
I hope I’m wrong, and will in fact hold my nose and vote AGAINST Babs for the Republican candidate. But my heart is heavy and I’m not looking forward to this election at all.
(Full disclosure: yes, I'm in IT. And I used to work with one of Fiorina's old college roomates, who is now a starry-eyed Fiorina butt remora. Yes, it was shuddersome working with this person while HP tanked.)
lol... Yup Hugo would be a lot more fun that “Senator†Babs.
Carly Fiorina is now Hugo Chavez?
Tell me.. how many pro-democracy demonstrators has Carly Fiorina gotten shot?
And you are telling someone else to take a tranquilizer of some sort? Ever considered taking your own advise?
