    Before Carly Fiorina Was a Fan of Ted Cruz

    “Ted Cruz is like any other politician. He says one thing in Manhattan, another in Iowa, whatever he needs to say to get elected and do as he pleases,” Fiorina told CNN in January.
    “I think the American people are tired of the political class that promises much and delivers much of the same.”

    You don't need to actually expect to win - so go ahead and hold a press conference and announce it.

    the 500k disappearing into Carly's pac is looking really strange now. These two have some relationship going on the public doesn't know about.

    Terrible tactical error. Mark your calendars .... The Cruz campaign just committed suicide today.

    Is there any way they can skirt around a law by doing this with the wandering 500k?

    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.

    I can't wait until Ted Cruz loses Indiana so we can see who he would pick for his cabinet.

    Funny how Cruz mentioned she knows where the jobs are . . . HP lost 30,000 jobs with Carly with plenty going to India.

    LOL - I can't wait to see Cruz fall behind Kasich in Indiana for another third place out of three.

    One of her staff members was "involved" with Cruz that's why 500K went to Carly not to spill the beans, she(staffer) never denied that even once. Silly rabbits it's so obvious.

    I think this just proves Cruz was never really serious. This is a bigger blunder than McCain/Palin.

    I am a libertarian. I am advocating everyone enjoy maximum freedom on both personal and economic issues as long as they do not bring violence unto others.

    Its a shame that i already lost some followers because of this circus election. And to think that some of two followers are saying Cruz/Fiorina are the best team to smack down the dems?

    lol Fiorina lost to Boxer.

    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.

    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."
