Any Californians want to weigh in on how much this will affect the race in CA? I don't see it being enough to make a difference. Cruz needs to get a majority in CA to stop Trump, and I don't see any way that happens.

He should weigh that decision carefully. Christie could drop dead of a heart attack before the election.

Ted Cruz names Carly Fiorina as VP pick
(CNN)Ted Cruz formally named Carly Fiorina as his vice presidential running mate Wednesday --
a last-ditch move to regain momentum after being mathematically eliminated from winning the GOP presidential nomination outright.

Christie would never agree to be his "running mate" out of fear it involves exercise.

Very odd pick. Not sure he could have made a worse choice politically. I don't understand what the logic behind making an early announcement is either. Very bizarre.

Notice the new flame logo on the podium

Cruz ’16
Fiorina


Their combined four years in elected office would be the least experienced major-party presidential ticket since the Landon/Knox in 1936.
Ordinarily, the presidential candidates who introduce their running mates are the candidates
who are actually going to win their party’s nomination.

. . . just a few months ago that Fiorina told a national television audience, “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 people are tired of a political class that promises much and delivers much of the same.”

Fiorina also once said that Cruz “cannot possibly beat Hillary Clinton.” Oops.

Remember in the movie Aliens, towards the end, when Pvt. Vasquez is helping escort the remaining people from First Squad move through the air ducts to safety.

At the end, despite her differences with Lt. Gorman, who she blamed for Drake's death -- "you were always an asshole Gorman" -- the two made the choice to activate an M40 grenade in their hands, taking down the approaching Xenomorphs and giving precious time to the remaining survivors.

Yeah, it's not even like that... I think I would rather have a facehugger on me. No Thanks.

Actually it might work. She did win the GOP senate nomination in California but lost the genral. If she campaigns hard for Cruz in CA, which is probably not nearly as Trump friendly as the east, it might deny Trump 1237. But it is a desperate move. It almost worked for Reagan in 76 though.

The money disappears from Cruz's pac into Carly's pac, and then back into Cruz's area of support with Carly being his running mate.

Sure. Announce as your running mate the person with the repulsive personality that garnered next to nil support, who reached the wuthering heights of total insignificance in the Iowa and New Hampshire before being flushed out altogether. Yes the psychopathic Killerina, the CEO known for corruption, extravagance and the worst possible decision making. She claims to have doubled HP employment - of course by a leveraged acquisition of a declining Compaq which she managed to turn into a ... total freefall, resulting in Fiorina having to layoff initially 1,600, then another 6,0000 and eventually resulting in a total of 30,0000 employees terminated by Fiorina - Woohoo! Her wonderful expensive mergers resulted in a net income gains of zero, and a stock price that nosedived. Yes, the CEO that drove HP to the edge of annihilation with a continuous consistent record of bad decision after bad decision. Yes, the CEO that was forced to resign by her own board of directors.

Yes attach your campaign to a weighted anchor. That is just the ticket to turn Cruz's crashing campaign around.

Yep and what is really mind blowing about the whole thing is that Neocons are endorsing her totally overlooking her act of treason of violating the Iran trade embargo and supplying the Iranian military to the tune of 120 million dollars worth of goods.

The Mysterious Case of Ted Cruz PAC’s $1/2 Million ‘Donation’ to Help Carly Fiorina

Editor’s Note: This article was first published March 30, 2016.

Months ago, before the Republican race was whittled down to just three candidates, a very curious thing happened. The Ted Cruz super PAC ‘donated’ $500,000 to the Carly Fiorina super PAC, CARLY for America. A few articles popped up at the time, and the Federal Election Commission even issued a letter asking the Cruz super PAC to better explain what the donation was for.

To be clear, a half a million dollars is not a small donation, and, at the time, it was the largest expense that the PAC had paid out. So why the heck would the Cruz PAC hand over that kind of money in the midst of a heated campaign splintered with so many candidates? In an interview in October, Kellyanne Conway, president of the pro-Cruz PAC told CBS News, that they made the donation in June “because we thought she had important things to say that weren’t being heard.” She added, “we are all in for Ted Cruz for President.”

Do you seriously believe that a group that was pushing for Cruz to be president several months ago would want to help his rival, Carly Fiorina? That makes no sense. The reason that LawNewz.com uncovered in the Cruz PAC’s recently amended filings with the FEC raises even more questions.

And the article poses a possible motive:


“And you have to wonder whether these women[alleged affairs], one of whom worked for the Carly Fiorina campaign, and then shortly thereafter Ted Cruz pays Carly half a million dollars. Ted despises Carly, and Carly despises Ted. What is the $500,000 for? Can you say hush money?”

Nice comment from the debates courtesy of Lewrockwell.com


During a debate, she was asked to whom she would first place a call as president.
"Bibi", she said. "I’d tell him to send me a list of what he wants from the US, and he will get it all."
