TURNOUT...Turnout will win this race.

[pissant]

Too bad there is no conservative in the race.

[skaterboy]

Weed will save Boxer and Brown....Prop 19 is gonna turn out the young voters......two races that look like they gonna be the ones that get away....

[yldstrk]

I for one am glad to see Carly has some hair now

[Recovering_Democrat]

Californians ought to be ashamed if they put Boxhead in office for another six years.

[Clintonfatigued]

Barbara Boxer remains under 50%, so it’s far from hopeless. Fiorina needs to concentrate her efforts in eastern California.

[dforest]

RINO Carley must not be too convincing. The RINOs are tanking.

People do like to know what they are getting. They know Boxer stinks. That makes her the frontrunner.

[cubreporter]

For now she does.

DA Office Braces for Bloodbath — Mass Firings Feared
THE SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE - Wednesday, January 17, 1996
Author: Phillip Matier, Andrew Ross

EXCERPT

LOYALTY TEST: A few weeks ago, when Mayor-elect Willie Brown was mulling over his first appointment to the Board of Supervisors, Carole Migden offered up this advice: ``You have a free pass on this one, so appoint someone that will shine and someone who will be loyal.’’

He did, appointing Representative Nancy Pelosi ‘s aide, Michael Yaki , to replace Terence Hallinan.

Yaki represents the latest generation of the Burton-Brown machine, that liberal-labor combine of politicos that includes Brown, Pelosi , Assemblyman John Burton, plus Supervisors Kevin Shelley and Sue Bierman.

Even U.S. Senator Barbara Boxer started out as an aide in the Burton combine.

If there’s one thing the Burton clan knows about, it’s loyalty. By appointing Yaki , Brown proves his loyalty to Pelosi and gives Yaki a chance to prove his loyalty to Brown.

As of now, at least from what I'm seeing in the East Bay, Fiorina is running a similar campaign to Bill Jone's 2004 stealth campaign.

I'm not seeing ANY Fiorina ads on TV. Family members are telling me the same thing.

We are all waiting for Fiorina to begin her campaign. What is she waiting for? A few appearances on national cable TV shows will not be enough.

Gee you think Carly would have had a better shot had she not run HP into the ground?

[Walts Ice Pick]

Fiorina may not be a conservative, but she may be the best of some bad choices in this race. However, I say this without taking a look at third party (e.g., Libertarian) candidates.

If Fiorina can't beat Boxer in a year like this one, then it'll be her own fault.

[Plutarch]

I thought Carly did very well in in her television interview. Talent will out, hopefully.

[Cringing Negativism Network]

Sure are a lot of exclamation points on this thread.

A friendly reminder to fellow FReepers:

The primary is over. This is for all the marbles.

Cease circular firing squad. Cease firing.

-

BTW: Just tonight saw a (quite) good Fiorino commercial - focusing on Boxer’s “Call Me Senator” moment.

Let’s stop quibbling please.

Thanks.

[sickoflibs]

Carly is definitely a RINO. She was on CNN tonight and said she supports The Dream Act Amnesty. But at the same time I really hate Boxer so I did call the Carly campaign today and complement them on their effective attack ad against Boxer, it was one of the better ones. Would I vote for her in November against Boxer if I lived in CA ??? Fortunately I don’t live in CA and have to decide that, at least we have jobs in MD.

I have a similar painful decision like that in the MD governors race, as we all did in 2008 with RINO McCain, and Scott Brown in MA. I say follow your conscience, it’s all you can do. But lets not drift into la-la land over who these RINOs really are, or alternatively think Boxer winning will prove anything good. And NO RINOs for President for any reason. GRIDLOCK is my only real hope now, not Republicans.

[NormsRevenge]

Dang. too bad we didn’t run a conservative candidate and ride the TEA Party wave to office.. oh well maybe next decade

[ZULU]

I’m no fan of Fiorina, but she is light years ahead of Boxer, one of the most arrogant, entitled Democrats in Congress.

Its essential to demonstrate to the ruling elites the extent of popular anger at Obama by defeating as many Democrats as possible at this point.

4 to 6 point margin. If I’m Ma’am, I’m not happy at all.

[MaggieCarta]

MANY VOTERS STILL HAVEN’T FORMED AN OPINION OF FIORINA
caps in the original, you know I'm not yelling at you, calcowgirl ;)

Wow. Just wow. Still haven't formed an opinion, and, it's what, less than 40 days to Nov? What on earth do these people do?
