1. She's the cat's pajamas.
I think she's going to defeat her smarmy opponent in November.

I will be giving my time for her and Jerry now.

26. I think she'd be ideal, too...
And I think she could win against anybody the Republicans could come up with... :)

5. She is a treasure, but heads up.........
Carly is a dangerous opponent. Carly did pretty well for herself in the debate, IMHO. Ms. Boxer got in some excellent jabs.... like pointing out who the coal companies are bankrolling. That went over well.

8. Boxer scored BIG on women's right to choose
CA is overwhelmingly pro-choice, and calling attention to Fiorina's anti-choice position really damages her among voters here.

29. Carly is a self-absorbed twit...
Of course we've seen this personality type go very far in politics, but I don't think she holds a candle to Boxer. If I saw her licking Boxer's boots, I'd tell Boxer to take a step back before she became infected.

7. One of my favorites in the upper house.
Always has been. Generally on the same side of issues as myself, always honorable, feisty as hell and smart as a whip.

9. For this post right here, please insert --
still more praise for Senator Barbara Boxer of California.

And may she stomp that sniveling weasel opponent of hers this fall, too.

10. She shot and she scored
No contest.

Not only did she win on the issues, but she won in sincerity. Fiorina is just plain weird, something not right about her . . . I don't know how to describe it. She makes me cringe.

11. Agree. There's something terribly wrong with Fiorina.
I can't get to what it is exactly, but possibly it's a combo of a laboratory experiment that went horribly wrong -- akin to the lab disaster that produced The Lizard in Spider-Man comics -- plus a series of unaccountable genetic mutations that transformed what ought to be a normal person into a sniveling job-cutting monster with a hairdo that looks like squirrel velcro.

28. I think that makes her appear very condescending...
One of the traits we've heard from the last company she crashed and burned.

Good they have rectified the situation! The best revenge is doing well... and they are all over the news today, doing quite well indeed.

22. Not a *real* Democrat.
The only real Democratic senators are Bernie Sanders, who's not a Democrat, and Dennis Kucinich, who's not a Senator.

Every other Democratic senator is just a poser -- sounds strange, I know, and I didn't know that, but then I checked DU.
