I forgot about that 500K. I thought at first this was a bad idea for Rafeal Ted Cruz Jr. from Canada. Yet I can see it now, Trump will go after iCarlys record when she was with HP and then types like Meygan and Hillary can scream how he hates women.
I followed that senate race of hers in Cali. I didn’t like her then either.

“...he didn’t pick Rubio...”
Well said. “Rubio probably turned Ted down” is right and Rubio is hoping for a deal with Trump if he (Rubio) has any talent at all for strategy and long term planning. I don’t know if Trump will deal with him or not, but such a (hypothetical) deal would be in Rubio’s best interest that’s for sure.
Good point.

When you come in 3rd place (behind Kasich) in 5 of the past 6 contests, cracking 20% in only one of them, its best not to announce Veep picks - or you become a punchline.
But he's been bribing picking up 2nd ballot delegates, doncha know.

Same here. My saw it instantly in the first debate. The guy completely creeped her out. She is not the political junkie that I am, but she has good instinct.

Fiorina lost in a bloodbath in California. This is madness.

Politically appropriate match is about the nicest thing I can say given her record:
- Fiorina slams Cruz as inconsistent ff 1:00
"I would say that Ted Cruz is just like any other politician. He says one thing in Manhattan. He says another thing in Iowa. He says whatever he needs to say to get elected and then he's going to do as he pleases. I think the American people are tired of the political class that promises much and delivers much of the same."
- "there is no job that is America's God-given right anymore."
- if you dont have a room full of diversity when making an important decision, you will not get the decision right. (ff 9:43 - 13:00) Fiorina said she supports the DREAM Act
- In February 2013, when the Gang of 8 released the worst comprehensive amnesty bill of our time, Carly was one of its biggest cheerleaders on the Sunday shows.
- She also accused some opponents of amnesty as taking on a racist tone.
- Carly also opposed fixing the birthright citizenship loophole for illegal aliens and referred to it as an emotional distraction.
- Fiorina said there is scientific consensus that climate change is real and caused by humans
- Supports Common Core / No Child Left Behind was positive
- Buzzfeed: Audio And Video Of Carly Fiorinas Forceful Praise Of Hillary Clinton In 2008
- In the heat of the 2011 debt ceiling fight, when Carly was the Vice Chair of the NRSC and vouching for the positions of Mitch McConnell, she said that she disagrees with conservatives.
- Fiorina has had to explain why she appeared to support taxation of Internet commerce while running HP

*****
- Carly Fiorina Pushing Anti-Privacy Bill
On "'Meet the Press', she called upon Congress to pass the Cybersecurity Information Sharing Act. The bill would immunize companies like Google from lawsuits resulting from consumer information shared with government. The effect would be a massive institutional rollback of personal privacy.
- WashingtonExaminer:
There is a level of collaboration thats required between the private sector and the public sector to detect and repel attacks, Fiorina said on NBCs Meet the Press on Sunday. That requires an act of Congress. There is a bill thats been languishing, frankly, in Congress for several years now. We need to get that bill passed so that level of collaboration is possible. "Outside of passing the cyberbill, Fiorina said, Its important to recognize that these cyberattacks that have been going on against the federal government systems, none of those are a surprise
Weve known for over a decade the Chinese were coming after our most important systems."
****** Fiorina majored in medieval history at Stanford yet weeks after 9/11 claimed in a direct quote of Fiorina's text comprising the last 500 words of a 3,600-word speech given on September 26, 2001 about Islamic civilization - "There was once a civilization that was the greatest in the world." As disgusting as the timing of that September 2001 declaration was, it clearly was not the only time Fiorina spoke of Islam with resplendent admiration.... Carly Fiorina, Gaslighting, Islam, Her Relationship To Clinton Global Initiative, and Progressive Agenda
"Please read the
- entire speech
and pay close attention to the closing paragraphs. What you will note is an almost eerie similarity to current Secretary of State John Kerry vis-a-vis the Jobs for Jihad program he, and his globalist co-horts, have been advocating for the past three years.
Read everything written by Fiorina and then ...
- reference/remember the words used by State Department Spokesperson Marie Harf they are almost identical.
Next example look at the following reception by
- Professor Al-Hassani, the Chairman of FSTC, at the conference La Deuda Olvidada de Occidente he is responding to the speech of Carly Fiorina and the intended audience in the Mid-East
[snip]
- Professor Al-Hassani was rejoicing that Carly Fiorina was asserting without Islam there would be no U.S.A., no America, no exceptionalism. This is the exact approach of the U.S. State Department,

***** Fiorina Named 19th Worst CEO of ALL Time. In May 2009, Portfolio compiled lists of the 20 best and 20 worst CEOs ever. Fiorina was 19th on the "Worst CEOs" list, with the magazine writing, "A consummate self-promoter, Fiorina was busy pontificating on the lecture circuit and posing for magazine covers while her company floundered. She paid herself handsome bonuses and perks while laying off thousands of employees to cut costs. The merger Fiorina orchestrated with Compaq in 2002 was widely seen as a failure. She was ousted in 2005." Portfolio also noted that HP stock lost half its value while Fiorina was CEO. [Porfolio, 5/09]

"What led to her firing, finally, was the disconnect between the company's erratic performance and her insistence that the strategy was great and everything was just fine. "

- CNBC: Sonnenfeld slams Fiorina: 'Left HP in tatters' in a video interview of Prof Sonnenfeld, Lester Crown Professor in the Practice of Management at Yale School of Management and Senior Associate Dean for Executive Programs he asked:
Ten years after she (FioRINO) was fired from HP, why has she NEVER gotten a job offer to be Chief Executive of ANY company?
- Fiorina Eavesdropped on HP Board Members. After Fiorina's departure from Hewlett-Packard, it was discovered that Fiorina had eavesdropped on board members in an effort to stop boardroom leaks, laying the groundwork for HP's pre-texting scandal.

“Our Gal” couldn’t even beat the dimwitted Barbara Boxer. With her not so stellar track record in business, she will provide more than enough ammo for the ‘rats. Why would Ted even name a running mate? He is over 400 delegates behind and this is never done until the convention. Got desperation?

As both a pro-Donald Trump and pro-Ted Cruz person, that earlier personal insult aimed at Carly Fiorina made me cringe.
