Carly Fiorina Senate Bid Kicks Off

Former Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina says she'll run for the U.S. Senate seat held by California incumbent Barbara Boxer.

Fiorina ended months of speculation Wednesday with an announcement in an opinion piece she wrote for the Orange County Register. She's scheduled to make a formal announcement later in the day.

Great news! Hope she trounces Boxer right out of the senate. Boxer has been there too long and tried her best to ruin this great nation and our constitution.

It didn't take Boxer long to start throwing dirt. Since she can't stand on her own record, she makes it a practice to tear down her opponents with negative campaigns.

Obama promised change but is only delivering Soviet-style governance. It's time for the voters to get the change we need. Vote Boxer out of office and every other incumbent over the next few elections until they are all gone.

Americans must start relying on themselves and stop looking for government handouts. Handouts will cost you your freedom.

Barbara Boxer needs to go I would rather have a prisoner from San Quentin. Liberalism is a mental disorder and Boxer, Pelosi, Feinstein and Newsom are proof. Fiorina I am ok with you but if you take money from soros there will be hell to pay.

Carly Fiorina?

Isn't THAT the dumbass that got canned for running Hewlett-Packard into the f*cking ground?

I think it is .....

Forina was forced out of HP in 2005 after its stock price had fallen in value by half. In early January 2005, the Hewlett-Packard board of directors discussed with Fiorina a list of issues that the board had regarding the company's performance. The board proposed a plan to shift her authority to HP division heads, which Fiorina resisted. A week after the meeting, the confidential plan was leaked to the Wall Street Journal. Less than a month later, board brought back in Tom Perkins and forced Fiorina to resign as chairman and chief executive officer of the company. The company's stock jumped on news of Fiorina's departure.[

see_how de...Do you have something against just because of her being a woman or being a less liberal than liberal for California? I guess you think its okay for actors or lawyers to run for political position, Not any businessman or businesswoman run for the political position? California is an anti business state right now. I lived in California before. I know what is like in there. Why do you think Texas is doing well on its own because it is a business friendly. The renevues come in for businesses.

LOL. That dumb ass Fiorina running for the Senate. Boy I needed a good laugh. Talk about intellectually-challenged. This is the same bitch that got thrown out of Hewlett Packard for screwing up the company and then McCain had to throw under the bus when she f***** up during his run for President. She can't tell the difference between her mouth and her ass. The stench is too much...

Another stupid Broad wanting to run things for us.. Hey Sister, go home keep house and raise a family . That's what the Hell you were created for.. We've got too many ugly things like you running around Washington now... Man, what the Hell were the politicians thinking when they gave you the right to vote. And we're trying to reform the Muslims over there. You think America would get a clue when it sees Pelosi, Rottencrotch, Boxer , Snowe et al.

RINO ALERT RINO ALERT RINO ALERT! The one good thing about this lady getting in would be Boxer getting out and the fact that this lady has no credibility whatsoever and would get tossed aside. Her two big issues she is pushing are healthcare reform (At least she doesn't want a government option) and climate change coupled with power. Sound familiar? This lady has nothing to run on, but what congress is toying with now. This is exactly what conservatives need to be on the lookout for.

And the ALINSKY attacks begin from the Huffy Puffy Post.
I dont know alot about Carly, but from what I understand, Chuck Devore is also running for that senate seat, so there will obviously be a primary.
One thing you can count on, Barbara Boxer is History

We need another RINO in the Senate like we need another hole in the head! But then again I'd vote for a potted plant if it would mean getting rid of Boxer!

If Barbara Boxer does not get re-elected, who would take her place as the dumbest female U.S. senator?

The wing nuts are already casting fiorina in the mold of Scozzafava and have an extreme right winger they are endorsing in the primary. The rabid right wing is bound and determined to purge the republican party of any and all people who have even a remote tendency toward reasonableness. A sure way for the shortsighted tea bagging, birther, deathers to self destruct.

SanchtuPene,

I am aware to watch out for False Preachers and False Prophets.

Let me ask YOU a simple question.

Do you support Obama on Partial Birth Abortion?

Do YOU consider me to be a rabid right winger if I don't support it?

Simple thoughts here my friend. I have served upon the Alter and only ask for a response void of personal attacks, Thanks.

This announcement all but guarantees another Boxer term. Fiorina was an inept CEO and an even worse surrogate for John McCain. Her mouth is her own worst enemy and that's really saying something considering she's running against Boxer.
