Ted Cruz to Select Carly Fiorina as His Running Mate

[Kat]

Well, that's a balanced ticket.

He's got both ends of the horse now.

OMGosh....you are so bad. That is funny.

You're such an ass!

Hell! That changes EVERYTHING!!!!

i hear ya LL.....fuck Firefly....im going with munster jr....

This will most likely cost him votes. Which he can't afford seeing how terrible he is at getting them.

That's really funny because he is actually better at getting votes from Trump than Santorum was at getting votes from Mittens. By this time last primary it was over and Mitt had the majority of delegates to win on the first ballot. Say what you will about Cruz, he's hanging in there like a rusty fish hook. Adding Fiorina before California is a smart move, he pretty much has to win California to block Trump. It's an uphill battle for Cruz, not a doubt... but to claim he is terrible at getting votes is a bit harsh.

Now, Trump may still get to the magical 1,237 before the convention.... that's still possible. That's exactly what Mitt did and why he couldn't be stopped at the convention. But we have rules for nomination and there's a reason the top delegate candidate isn't always the nominee. If Romney hadn't had a majority by the convention, some of you SAME Trump supporters would have stood on your ear to do something to block him. Don't be dishonest about that, you know that is true, so we have these provisions in the process for a reason and Trump will have to adhere to them.

why?....she got her ass kicked running for governor out here....

Fiorina?

A tactically smart choice I think.

Ted Cruz to Select Carly Fiorina as Vice Presidential Pick

Ted Cruz will announce Wednesday that he has chosen former Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina to be his running mate should he manage to secure the GOP presidential nomination at the Republican convention this summer.

trump still beats his butt.

and Fiorina couldn't manage her own campaign.

Comparing Cruz to Santorum? Spot on! Best comparison I've ever seen!

the model of the opposite of fiscal responsibility.

Vice-President of what? lol

I know. In 1976 Ronald Reagan did the same thing (naming a VP pick before the start of the convention) and then demanded President Ford do the same. D'uh!

 

[NYcarbineer]

Can Carly Fiorina be vice president and still retain her title,

Miss Personality USA?

Not exactly the same. Reagan did it a few days before the convention with a difference of less than 100 delegates between him and ford. looking back, its a good thing reagan lost in 1976. with watergate it was almost impossible for any republican to win in 76 and it was a miracle ford came as close as he did.

Who besides Reagan named their VP before the start of the convention?

And Reagan tried 'stealing' delegates

They all try stealing delegates, it's the way the game is played.

It's a contest. Except, Trump's people are whining like the Donald. They don't like the rules.

 

[BuckToothMoron]

It's a Hail Mary by Cruz. Carly is a perceived outsider because she has never held office, she is a business person, a woman and a policy wonk. It's a desperate attempt which will fail,like most Hail Marys do.

And yet the orange clown continues to pound the tea bagged. Poly Sci wonks will study this race for decades.

 

[Martin Eden Mercury]

Trump's support partly stems from being a 'perceived outsider because' he 'has never held office,' he 'is a business person.'

Not much to study, but lots to spin according to what point somebody wants to make ahead of time.
