She's been campaigning with and endorsing Republicans across the country, including Sam Brownback, Greg Abbott and Joni Ernst.

And Fiorina is going after women voters, trying to woo them over to the GOP.

I could see Mittens convincing her or possibly Meg to run because he doesn't want to run a third time and possibly embarrass himself but feels the GOP is lacking a candidate sufficiently corporate, robotic and focus-grouped.

As usual, you guys should read the tea leaves thread.  This was noted back in July:

A new name to throw into the mix: Carly Fiorina:

http://www.usnews.com/news/blogs/run-2016/2014/07/28/carly-fiorina-taking-2016-temperature

She's made two trips to New Hampshire this year, and she has a Super PAC which is focusing on just a handful of states….including Iowa and New Hampshire.

No way she's foolish enough to believe that Republican primary voters would let her secure the nomination. She's pulling to be VP.

I think she's shooting for California's Governor's race in 2018 (It's an open seat after all)

A person whose only political experience was losing (by no means narrowly) a statewide race in a strongly Republican year, and who's got lots of baggage from her previous career?

Seems like a perfect candidate for national office.

She may actually have a better chance at winning the Republican nomination than winning a statewide election in California.

Kay Bailey Hutchison?

The sad thing is, Fiorina would be a better candidate than like two-thirds of the likely field. That's how bad the Republican pool could be.

Hmm, I think she always comes across as extremely arrogant. She might be brilliantly smart for all I know, but I don't think voters would like her at all. She does not have the charisma of other GOP women including Palin, Bachman, Ernst, Martinez. In fact, Fiorina has no charisma what so ever.

She has so-so charisma. She may be on the veep shortlist or a Cabinet position, or governor of California in 2018. I don't see her winning the GOP presidential nomination.

Here's Forbes criticizing both Fiornia and Whitman's destruction of shareholder value by laying off people rather than innovating.

A perfect match for Mitt Romeny at least. (They both exemplify some of the more destructive and least effective aspects of capitalism at its worst.)
