2. “It was a long time ago in the technology world and there weren’t that many people actually who took a young woman from the secretarial pool all that seriously. And he did — so I had to fall in love and marry him.”

This is how Fiorina described meeting her second husband, Frank Fiorina, during a town hall in New Hampshire over Labor Day weekend. But she was not in the secretarial pool; rather, they met early in Carly Fiorina's career when she worked in government communications at AT&T and he was even higher up the ladder. He showed interest in an idea that she had but couldn't get buy-in from higher-ups. He proposed in the car with his two daughters from a previous marriage sitting in the backseat, and the couple married in 1985. When Fiorina became CEO of Hewlett-Packard in 1999, her husband retired early from AT&T so he could better support her. The two are nearly always on the campaign trail together.

The whole GOP is a party of liars....16 more to go to pick off one by one...or, as I would suggest based in the evidence, they need to be all painted in one sweep or this tiresome process of exposing the liars of the GOP one at a time will go on forever.

Maybe that is why they started with 17 "candidates", to wear America out with all the lies and all the liars.

In the end one of the liars will inevitably be one on one with a Democratic Party truthteller. Which itself is an abomination of American politics.
