Well this is a bit of troubling news on the Carly Fiorina front:
POLITICO – California Senate candidate Carly Fiorina told a group of conservative journalists yesterday that she probably would have voted to confirm Sonia Sotomayor to the Supreme Court, handing conservatives an issue to use against her in the primary against state Assemblyman Chuck DeVore:
In what would turn out to be the biggest news emerging from the breakfast, Fiorina said that, while she did not study Sonia Sotomayor in great deal (“I was battling cancer at the time”), she probably would have “voted for her” confirmation to the Supreme Court. The daughter of the late Deputy U.S. Attorney General and U.S. Court of Appeals Judge Joseph Sneed said she “does not believe in litmus tests” for judicial nominees and that the chief criterion for service on the bench is “respecting the Constitution.”
Only seven Republican senators voted for Sotomayor’s confirmation in August, a list that includes all of the party’s moderates: Sens. Lamar Alexander of Tennessee, Kit Bond of Missouri, Susan Collins of Maine, Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, Dick Lugar of Indiana, Mel Martinez of Florida, Olympia Snowe of Maine and George Voinovich of Ohio.
This article was from the end of 2009.

Right now among the three Republican front runners, we have:
Trump (Democrat)
Carson (unqualified)
Fiorina (Democrat)
Bring on 2016.
Are there people who still are considering that one for prez?
Yeah, president of the local feminazi club.
Pffffffttttttttt........
Well for those that were considering her, this is the nail in her coffin as she is admitting she is a RINO that will side with Democrats, and the stupid 7 RINO Republicans that voted for Sotomayor. She is no different than the worst of what we already have in the Republican party.
Observant ones knew that going in.
Wow, Snarley is sure one candidate where the closer you get the worse she looks. Stick a fork in her.
She would run the USA just like she ran HP.

Carly does not pass the conservative smell test...
Exactly...bring on Hillary, Joe, Bernie.
This Kalifornian is beyond RINO/GOPe. Like many California Republicans, their brand of conservatism is to be just a tad to the right of full blown anti-American socialism.
The single biggest difference between Karly and Hitlery is Karly’s past and present is not nearly as tainted. Aside from that, neither would be an improvement over obama.
Karly would play the V card just like obama plays the B card, the country just cannot take that kind of manipulation again.
She makes Rubio look good. My preferences are Trump, Cruz, Carson in that order.
Where’s the John McLaughlin “WRONG” photo?
Negative 3 points for siding with the “wise” Latina...
What makes Ben Carson unqualified? Very specific please.
¡Yeb! and Rubberio know exactly why they are in this race.
To prevent the citizens from electing a President who would stop The Cheap Labor Express.
Trump (The outsider/non-politician wrecking ball)
Bring on 2016.
Carly probably would have nominated Sotomayor.
Yes, Carly is a RINO down to her soul.
