Fiorina also lacks unique or deep ties to Indiana or many of the other remaining primary states, except California, where she lost a U.S. Senate race in 2010 by 10 points.
“It’s one of the few cards he’s got left to play to really change the conversation people are having,” said Chris Galdieri, a political science professor at St. Anselm College. “The good news is we’re talking about Cruz. The bad news is a lot of people are just sort of scratching their heads.”
Former Trump operative Roger Stone flatly rejected the idea Fiorina will benefit Cruz in any way.

Ted probably needed her to shut up about that formet campaign aide who spilled the beans on him to Carly. She’s got him by the privates and she’s also got him for about a half a million dollars contribution.
Looks like bribery or hush money to most Americans.
ROFL!
“erhaps he should contact Mrs. Clinton and ask to become her running mate. A uniparty unity ticket would be just the thing. “
I have said this for a couple of weeks. Only I expect it to be a Clinton/Kasich “National Unity” ticket.
That would explain why Kasich has gone off the far left cliff of late
Despite that sounding crazy, you could very well be right. Trump could counter by nominate Jim Web as Running mate.
She’s not his “running mate,” but his “limping mate.” - Ann Coulter
