I guess I took the bait after Carly Fiorina took the first GOP debates. Now I’m starting to remember why back in 2010 that I voted for Chuck Devore in the California senate primary and not Carly Fiorina. Then come election day I held my nose and voted Fiorina just to get rid of hag Barbara Boxer. Of course Fiorina couldn’t stand up to Boxer’s constant attacks on her failures at HP and Lucent.
Now Carly Fiorina wants to play nice with Hillary Clinton and wouldn’t challenge her character, despite Clinton’s lies, deleting e-mails and other slimy Clinton things. In fact, Carly Fiorina even said she has enormous admiration for Clinton. Wonderful..

GOP candidate Carly Fiorina tells People magazine that she won’t slam Hillary Clinton’s character, but would criticize her record as Secretary of State.
“So I never make a personal comment about Hillary Clinton – my criticism of her is fact-based, based on her actions and track record. And that is fair game,” Fiorina says.
“I feel empathy with every woman who is working really hard and giving it all they’ve got – and Hillary is,” the former Hewlett Packard CEO recently told the magazine. “She’s smart, she’s hardworking, she’s giving it all she’s got.”
Fiorina’s claim she won’t hit Clinton’s character is a sharp contrast from Donald Trump’s attacks on his rivals’ character — that Jeb Bush is ‘low energy,’ for example.
Clinton and Fiorina met when the Republican delivered the 2001 commencement speech at Stanford University, Fiorina’s alma mater. That was also the same year that Clinton’s daughter Chelsea graduated.
People reports that in a 2008 interview, Fiorina told MORE magazine how she visited Clinton’s office “to talk about various issues.” Fiorina also said that Clinton had asked Fiorina for support during her first presidential run; however, Fiorina declined. Fiorina told MORE, “I have enormous admiration for Hillary Clinton. And I felt empathy for her” after Clinton had an “incredibly grueling several weeks” while out campaigning.
People reports Fiorina stands by her previous comments and still has “enormous admiration” for Clinton.
