    1. It'll be seen as BLATANTLY desperate of Cruz, by Indiana Republicans.

    2. Carly brings nothing to the table she didn't bring to the GOP Primaries....she quit after New Hampshire.

    3. Trump's people are probably already creating TV ads with the video of Carly saying "Ted Cruz is just like any other politician...saying one thing in Manhatten, another thing in Iowa."

    Asking Mods to merge my OP into this....


    there's video of Carly saying just months ago---"Ted Cruz is like any other politician....saying one thing in Manhatten, another thing in Iowa."

    Trump's folks are no doubt all over that.

    I wonder if Trump will say what we all know: "She wouldn't have even made the debate stage if she wasn't the only woman". She failed at the two things that would have made her qualified. She was a failed CEO and failed in her bid for the Senate.

    Failure certainly hasn't stopped the orange clown. There's no substitute for a silver spoon though.

    And it is too late for Cruz to reveal a politically feasible plan to to improve the condition of the American voter.

    Eliminating the IRS would be great - how would Cruz/Fiorina do that? The same way the GOP repealed ObamaCare?

    Who said "My kingdom for a credible proposal"? ;-)

    Trump has created a billion dollar empire. Fiorina took over a company she didn't build and ran it into the ground. She was obviously running for VP the entire time, but she was the only woman in the field and could only muster up a few percent of the vote. That's pretty pathetic.

    "If you have always been told that you are the chosen one..."

    Based on what I hear about Cruz's father this is such a pot meet kettle moment.

    Only sexists mock female presidential candidates, Cap'n. Ask Trump. :)

    Never heard of it until he ran to be honest. I think this move helps Cruz in this election. It might be the best he can get, but he needs a spark. However, she's a terrible person to be 2nd in line for the presidency. I don't wish bad things for her health, but her health is a major question mark and it's highly likely she would not be able to serve 2 terms. She has not served in office or proven that she can lead anything effectively.

    It's a BFD move by a chump who is mathematically eliminated from a natural path to the nomination.


    Just supports my choice of nickname for the POS rafael Cruz - WEASEL !!!

    Cruz managed to find a VP choice who is even harder to listen to than he is..,.but she is sharp and stays on message.

    Just don't see what she brings...other than the notion you need a woman to attack Hillary. Why would you pick someone where the obvious attack was the same used on Romney (heartless layoffs) only easier! She failed as an exec where Romney at least succeeded apparently.

    Maybe Rand Paul said no?

    This was obviously a desperation move by Cruz, and not a very good one at that. I can't see where it does him any good.

    A United States' senator despised by his peers and a failed business woman. It would be tough to come up with a better ticket to run the country.

    That's the video that Trump's folks will run in TV ads in Indianapolis, Fort Wayne, Evansville, and South Bend.

    4th identical thread topic started in 4 hours.

    Cruz picked Fiorina hoping he'll help her in some California Congressional Districts. It's that simple.
