Ted Cruz's presidential campaign has a short list of potential vice presidential picks that includes former rival Carly Fiorina, campaign aides announced Monday.
Cruz's campaign manager tweeted that they "have narrowed our VP candidates to a short list and are going thru the normal processes associated with picking a running mate." A top aide to Fiorina confirmed to NBC News that the former Hewlett-Packard CEO who endorsed Cruz earlier this year was on the list.
The vice presidential candidate selection process has typically been a secretive one in modern presidential politics. Candidates generally shy away from talking publicly about the vetting until they secure their parties' nominations.
Cruz currently trails frontrunner Donald Trump by almost 300 delegates.
John Kasich's campaign confirmed to NBC News they also are vetting potential vice presidential picks. But chief strategist John Weaver told NBC News, "We are conducting a deliberative process and not in public."

Okay, people, if THIS doesn’t sink in your thick Cruz worshiping sculls, nothing will! He’s been buying her off for months. She is OWNED by the open border lobby and the guy who sells COMMON CORE! Cruz is a manipulater. Wake up before you destroy this election!
September 17, 2015 CARLY ALERT!!! Birds of Feather? Cheap Labor & Common Core
http://towncriernews.blogspot.com/2015/09/carly-alert-birds-of-feather-cheap.html
[snip] Earlier today I read about a Craig Barrett who held a private fundraiser for Fiorina on Sept. 10th in Arizona. He is the chief Common Core pusher in AZ and Board member/ Chairman of Achieve Inc., the Common Core standards architects.
But I just found that this guy Barrett also heads Intel and the push for more foreign workers. The fundraiser featured Former US Sen. Jon Kyl...who in 2007 with Ted Kennedy and McCain was one of the senators to write Bush’s amnesty. Carly is in bed with the enemy!
(There is a rumor on Facebook that Barrett is Carly’s ‘daddy’...sugar daddy, maybe, but NOT TRUE! From her website: “Carly Fiorina was born on September 6, 1954, in Austin, Texas, the daughter of Madelon Montross Juergens and Joseph Tyree Sneed III” https://carlyforamerica.com/meet-carly/ )
Link to fundraiser: http://archives.mcrcbriefs.org/2015/08/8-30-15-briefs.html
The largest donation to the Fiorina super PAC — close to $1.6 million — came from Jerry Perenchio, the former CEO of Univision and national finance co-chairman for John McCain’s 2008 presidential campaign with deep ties to California.” http://www.cnn.com/2015/07/31/politics/carly-fiorina-super-pac/
A couple years ago, TTC told you that CARLY also did her share of hispandering during her failed California Senate run. She is tied up with PRO Amnesty lobbyists, like Grover Norquist.
[snip] Fiorina is a MCCAIN GIRL! Latinos Launch 42-City Bus Campaign to Get Out the Vote for Fiorina WASHINGTON, Sept. 24 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ — Today the Latino Partnership for Conservative Principles, a leading voice on Latino....
This is a PRO AMNESTY group....do not be fooled. It’s chocked full of the MOST pro amnesty gop hacks known!
That’ll have’em stampeding to the voter booths.
What a coincidence! Carly is on my short list for V.P. too!
A candidate who got 2% vote....????
Is this from the Onion????......LOL
Well you can certainly expect Cruz’s H-1B visa position to flip back to it’s original ‘500% increase’ posture if she’s truly on his ticket.
Carly eviscerated HP by abusing those.
H-1B ping.
A bit premature wouldn’t you say?
Dream on Cruz, idiot.
Carly makes me want to vomit.
Doesn’t matter. He isn’t going to be the nominee, anyway.
LOL!
All those candidates....17 of them....this was a setup coalition of Cruz/Carley/Kasich from the beginning.
Only cost Cruz 500K. I wonder what else was paid for.
“A candidate who got 2% vote....????”
Biden got 1% and he’s VP.
Who is on Rubio’s short list? How about Rick Perry’s?
LOL
Cara has a history of ruining organizations she has leadership positions in.
I wouldn’t put anything in the contract that even suggests some kind of a golden parachute for her. It would be an almost guaranteed payout.

“Only cost Cruz 500K. I wonder what else was paid for.”
INDEED!
“A bit premature wouldn’t you say?”
That announcement is for tomorrow’s vote only. Cruz thinks it might help him get the female vote.
“Carly Fiorina Is on Ted Cruz Shortlist for VP Pick”
Whatever.
Thanks for posting this, AuntB.
Carly has diarrhea of the mouth.
