“When candidates announce their VPs this early, it’s usually a desperate move”, said Browning. “Cruz, creates a powerful pro-life team to lead the United States”, said Carol Tobias, president of the National Right to Life Committee. “Women in positions of power, particularly bold women, who are trying to drive change as Hillary Clinton most surely is… bold women, women in power are characterized, scrutinized, differently than their male counterparts are”, she said in the 2008 video.

Cruz was looking to inject some fire and flash into his candidacy with the Fiorina pick as Donald Trump edges closer to the 1,237 delegates he needs to win the nomination outright.
Fiorina’s former home state is assuming outsized importance this primary season. What could make a person more likeable than saying things that are pleasant to hear, especially as they mask unpleasant realities? “She can really help him here”.
Anti-Trump group Our Principles PAC also launched a new television ad to run through Tuesday’s election, increasing their total spending in IN to $2 million. Barbara Boxer in 2010. She has never held elected office.

In addition to Planned Parenthood’s flagrant reviling of Cruz and Fiorina, CarlyFiorinaforVicePresident.com now redirects to a Planned Parenthood page asking for – what else? – donations for Planned Parenthood! “He wants to throw people out of the country and she threw thousands of jobs out of the country”.
That means there is a dearth of good voter data – making it an expensive proposition to poll and gather the data needed to figure out which the congressional districts are the best targets for each candidate.
Among all Americans, 45 percent didn’t know enough about Fiorina to rate her, while 22 percent rated her favorably and 32 percent unfavorably.
“Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton are virtually indistinguishable on policy issues across the field”, Cruz said Thursday.
Cruz is set to make the announcement official at 4 p.m. this afternoon, though at this point, it is merely a formality (and photo op!).

Browning said, “People believed she didn’t get a very fair shake with 17 candidates and she was mentioned a lot as a VP choice. Because we travel on the bus on the day, we get to play, we get to play”.
