But she does work for the RNC and is being hyped heavily by their media machine.
She is 1000% GOPe and a GOPe creation. Why would you try to claim GOPers don’t like her?
Your other comments don’t make sense.
The best politicians are the ones who can talk for an hour and not say a a damn thing.
She is running for vice president.
I would accept her on a Cruz ticket. Actually, I would accept anyone picked at random from the phone book as long as Cruz heads the ticket.
Yes...
Carly Fiorina can do whatever she damned well pleases. She made $20M in departing HP. That’s in addition to various investments over her lifetime. If she’s at the RNC, it’s in essence volunteering. And learning the ropes. I wouldn’t underestimate her.
Why would she stay in CA and run again? AS IF any R is going to win statewide out there in the foreseeable future. Why would she waste her time and money like that? She’s probably quite aware it’s extremely unlikely she’ll get the R presidential nomination, but she knows how she can benefit the team by being a candidate.
She’s one tough cookie, and would make mincemeat out of Hillary. I hope she does make it onto the debate stage. Every one of the GOP candidates would benefit from her being there.
“Carly Fiorina can do whatever she damned well pleases.”
Yes. Yes she can. So can Romney, Bush, Clintons etc...
The question is why did she throw her lot in with Mitt Romney last time, during the primaries, endorsing him with the GOPe narrative that only he could beat Obama and becoming a Chair of the Romney campaign, when she can do anything she durn well pleases?
Why are those the things that she pleases?
“Why would she stay in CA and run again? AS IF any R is going to win statewide out there in the foreseeable future. Why would she waste her time and money like that?”
That makes no sense as an argument for not running given that she did run and all the same things applied to that run.
Using your logic, why would she have run in 2010 in the first place?
In 2010 there was still some thought that a R could win in CA. Both Fiorina and Whitman would have had a good shot in “old CA.” Not today’s CA. Different demographic now. “All the same things that applied to that run” wouldn’t apply to another run in the foreseeable future.
Fiorina is a very capable administrator and would make a great White House chief of staff, which is, in many ways, a more powerful and influential position than VP.
“In 2010 there was still some thought that a R could win in CA”
No, there was not.
I think a very very slight chance was possible for her in 2016 because she ran for it in 2010 and it is open in 2016.
All I meant was that you probably aren’t that familiar with her.
