Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.) criticized Republican presidential hopeful Ted Cruz for selecting former Hewlett-Packard executive Carly Fiorina as his running mate, arguing the pick shows the Texas senator has “no judgment whatsoever.”
Fiorina challenged Boxer for her Senate seat in 2010, and lost the election by 10 points. Boxer effectively used Fiorina’s HP tenure against her, criticizing the former CEO for laying off thousands at the California-based company and moving many jobs overseas. The failed Senate campaign loomed large over Fiorina’s foray into the 2016 presidential race, which ended shortly after underwhelming performances in the Iowa caucus and New Hampshire primary.
In an interview with MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell on Thursday, Boxer said Cruz’s decision to name Fiorina as his running mate should he win the GOP nomination was ill-conceived.
“She hasn’t held office, any office, be it Senate, House, state legislature, local government, not a minute’s worth, and her claim to fame is running a large corporation which she practically destroyed, Hewlett-Packard, the pride of California,” she said. “I think it just shows Ted Cruz has no judgment whatsoever by choosing her.”

Barbara Boxer shows California has no judgment.
No need to wonder: she did.
Her opinion is utter dreck, and anyone quoting her is a fool.
Boxer beat Carly like a baby seal. A preview of coming attractions should the never trump tards win.
California has lost it's f***ing mind, and I only wish there was some way to keep that lunacy trapped behind it's borders. Unfortunately the people who hold that stupid ideology are fleeing the mess they created and going to other, more sane parts of the country where they are then proceeding to create the same mess that caused them to leave California.
Carly Fiorina Still Has ‘Admiration and Respect’ for Hillary Clinton
So Trumpkins are now reduced to quoting Barbara Boxer in their support for the conman (Trump University) and snake oil salesman (Trump Shuttle, Trump Steaks, Trump Vodka, and H2B Visas For Mar-a-Lago waitresses?
That’s EXACTLY why TED CRUZ is losing. He feels that if his opposition is FOR something then he just has to be against it (i.e. enforcing the laws already on the books and deporting illegals) and if his opponent is AGAINST something then he has to be for it (i.e. Being truthful and publically admitting that the protestors in the streets are not Trump supporters but George- Soros paid rioters).
Up until Chicago I was a Ted Cruz supporter (though if he had lost I’d have no problem voting for Trump.
Cruz went to the dark side when he put politics above Freedom of Speech and sided with those who shut down Freedom of Speech.
Ted Cruz had me fooled all the way back when he was running for Senate up until that night in Chicago.
Another “in-kind” contribution to Cruz.
And Barb, what would Ted’s judgement be if he had picked YOU?
Next question, did iCarly work for the Mayflower Madam?
Why's that, noob? You've really put on your big boy pants in the past week or so...lol.
Carly’s whoring was a small time operation, it seems...
Look around, zots are being handed out like candy.
Don’t worry, it’s probably just yourself you’re smelling. Maybe it’s time to get off the computer and shower.
Unfortunately, Boxer is right. There’s a first time for everything.
So, your thinking appears to be that Cruz made a brilliant choice with Fiorina?
Are you a member of the zot brigade? The post you referenced says nothing negative about Trump, in fact it says nothing about him at all.
Hell, I don't even see your name on the donor rolls. SMDH
You're the reason why I quit donating anonymously...this is the first freepathon I've ever donated to where I used my name.
Step up and be counted, Trump supporter! Or are you going to zot me for that, too? lol
Strange thing about that Mayflower Madam, she had over a 100 gals servicing the men, and thus far only 3 have been 'outed'. I have to wonder who else was working for her out there in California.
Have you ever played cards? Sometimes when you play, you end up having a losing streak. When that happens, you've got to do something to try and break it up. You do not know what will work, so you have to try things.
Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. One thing I have found out is that if you do nothing, you remain in your losing streak.
Cruz is now facing an uphill fight from a former New York Liberal Democrat turned "conservative." There isn't much that he can do at this point, but i'll not fault the man for trying to do something.
Doing nothing to change the status quo is a certain failure.
