Fiorina drops out [her statement on facebook]
facebook ^ | 02/10/2016 | Carly Fiorina

Posted on 02/10/2016 12:09:20 PM PST by GIdget2004

This campaign was always about citizenship—taking back our country from a political class that only serves the big, the powerful, the wealthy, and the well connected. Election after election, the same empty promises are made and the same poll-tested stump speeches are given, but nothing changes. I've said throughout this campaign that I will not sit down and be quiet. I'm not going to start now. While I suspend my candidacy today, I will continue to travel this country and fight for those Americans who refuse to settle for the way things are and a status quo that no longer works for them.

It would be nice for once if all the GOP folks in DC would get off their @sses and try to help the GOP nominee win, for once, and trash the Dems.

I'm sure they'll get right on that. First, they have that 3 hour lunch at The Palm with lobbyists and a visit to the salon for pedicures and facials.

I also liked her, I still do..She is one smart woman, and she made a difference...She is right, she would creamed Hillary Benghazi...

that being said, I'm glad the field is getting smaller, and it is time for Dr. Carson, Jeb, and that old timer , Gilmore...he is a joke...what a waste, glad the MSM totally ignores him, he really is just another American. His vote will count, but he will not gather votes...

I wish Trump and Cruz, would bury the hatchet and team up, they can truly help each other...but none the less, I'LL STAY WITH TRUMP EVEN IF I HAVE TO WRITE HIS NAME IN...

AS FOR THAT SUPER PAC OUT TO TRASH TRUMP...THEY MAKE ME ASHAMED TO BE CALLED REPUBLICIAN...AND THEY NEED TO SHUT DOWN...WAKE UP GOP RNC OR YOU BOTH WILL BE ‘NO MORE’

“Now, will Carson, Bush and Christie follow suit?”

Christie is out. Carson is just a Flim Flam man, trying to sell books.

I didn’t think she was prepared to be POTUS, but she is an asset to the Republican party. I’ll bet that the eventual nominee can find a job for her in the cabinet.

Give me a shred of factual evidence of your vulgar claim. Try to resist your urge to say things that show the world you are a fool.

I would laugh, but you are probably much closer to the truth than fiction.

Your reply makes me want to cry a little bit.

Because you are right.

Depressing.

I think you didn’t actually watch any of the debates. Carly carried way more of the heavy stuff than Trump and Bush combined. She had good answers to a lot of wonkish type issues.

I like her; she is well spoken; it was unfortunate that she and Trump could not be allies (at the time). "There can be only one" Highlander candidate who wins the nomination; they are not selected as a slate.

Hey! I was pulling for Huckabee, when he got out I switched to Gilmore. No disappointments!

I imagine all the low ranks are getting calls from RNC. They are getting desperate.

That's it exactly. It's tempting to see establishment candidates like Christie and Carly humiliated, but if our goal is to nominate an anti-establishment candidate (Trump or Cruz) we want there to be as many establishment candidates in the race for as long as possible. Christie and Carly's departure just means more votes for Jeb and Rubio.

She was articulate and well versed on the issues. I would like to see people of her caliber in some government position of authority where she can do some good..

Even worse, she wouldn’t have delivered any female votes to the “R” column.

No loss here...

She was a “professional female”; not that she was a competent executive or had any professional accomplishments, but a token “female”. She was involved with a lot of “girl-power” crap that pressured companies to advance tokens instead of qualified “privileged” men.
