Carly Fiorina eyes Senate run in Virginia
NY Post ^ | February 8, 2017 | Daniel Halper

Carly Fiorina is planning a political comeback.

The former 2016 Republican presidential candidate, who briefly became Sen. Ted Cruz’s (R-Texas) vice presidential running mate before completely dropping out of the race, is eyeing a Senate seat in Virginia, she said in an interview.

“Look, I’m certainly looking at that opportunity,” Fiorina told the John Fredericks Show in an interview this week.

“It’s a little early to be making that decision, we’re two weeks into a new administration,” she added.

Fiorina, the former CEO of HP, ran for Senate in her home state of California in 2010, but failed to knock-off incumbent Sen. Barbara Boxer, a Democrat, in that election.

She later moved to Virginia before running for president in 2016.

For me, the good news is she isn’t living in Texas.

“... who briefly became Sen. Ted Cruz’s (R-Texas) vice presidential running mate...”

No, she didn’t. Ted Cruz was never our candidate, so she could not have been a vice presidential running mate. The most she achieved was to be a rather laughable wannabe.

I live in VA. Either she or Laura would be an immediate upgrade from either of the two stooges we have now.

Please clarify, do you really think Fiorina would challenge Cruz for his Senate seat, and if she did that she'd win?

Gotta admit that Carly/Elizabeth “Ranting Bull” Warren cat fights could be epic.

But how about VA guv for Carly?

I know she wants to beef up her foreign affairs/military cred for another run at the presidency, but her strength should be as a chief executive.
