Fiorina set to run, says she'd take Clinton's all-women pitch away

Republican Carly Fiorina took a step closer to running for president, revealing Thursday that she is near a decision while blasting Hillary Clinton's policies as "crushing the middle class."

"I am giving serious consideration to becoming a candidate for the presidency because I think our nation is at a pivotal point," said the former Hewlett-Packard and one-time California Senate candidate. "I think our government has grown so large, so powerful, so costly, so complex, so corrupt in fact that we are crushing the potential for the nation," she added.

Yep, but Hillary is more practiced at rolling her eyes.

How about VP to Cruz? It would be a twofer: the equivalent of Reagan having GHWB (a nod to the moderates without having to pick and actual establishment type), and also a gender-diverse ticket to shut up the FIRST WOMAN IN THE WHITE HOUSE! meme.

If she sticks to her role as Hillary attack dog, I have no problem with her running. She won’t pull votes from Ted Cruz. If she seriously thinks she should be President, she as nutty as the rest of CA.

Nobody can stick to a woman like a another woman. They know how and what to say.

I tend to like Carly. Maybe she’s really running for VP or a cabinet pot.

If she really wanted to help, she should keep attacking Hillary and endorse Cruz.

She is ok as an alternate, I guess.
That said, she did run Lucent and HP into the
ground and was really best at acquiring golden
parachutes.

For the last 10 years she’s been a consultant
to republican candidates, including McLame, and
managed to insult both John and Sarah on the campaign
trail - she said something to the effect that
neither one had the chops to run a corporation.

I can’t see why she’d run for Prez, unless she’s a
woman who usually gets her way, has no one that
says “No” to her, and she has come to believe in
her own myth of the powerful, successful woman
rising above the lowly dreck of the earth.

Other than this her accomplishments and experience
are not on par.

I’d vote her over Jeb or Huckabee on our side,
and over anybody on the other side, but she got
some ‘splainin to do.
