Hey, guess what? Carly Fiorina is back in the spotlight. Don't you remember? She's the former candidate who lost the California Senate race to Barbara Boxer and bowed out of the Presidential race after the second primary last year. But she is a very wealthy person because of the golden parachute she got when she was fired from Hewlett Packard.
Any way, if you haven't heard yet, Ted Cruz has selected Carly to be his running mate. Can you imagine Darth Vader as President and the Wicked Witch of the North as Vice-President? Her first commercial would be directed at Hillary saying "Come here my pretty." But don't worry, Senator Crus is so far behind Mr. Trump he needs a telescope just to see him. And having Carly standing on his shoulders shouting angrily at Hillary won't help much.
A losing candidate selecting a running-mate is very unusual and has never worked out to the satisfaction of the candidate. Even the leadership of the party are coming around to the idea of a Trump nomination. But never fear, Mr. Cruz will always be remembered as the guy that caused the shutdown of Government. And don't forget how much nearly all members of Congress love and respect him. Oh, no, wait, that's not quite right. Actually those members of Congress can't stand the sight of him. And those folks get a vote too.
Thinking about Ted Cruz is a lot like remembering Joe McCarthy. Remember Senator McCarthy? He was the one who, back in the early 50s, who could see a communist behind every blade of grass. There was nobody insignificant enough to be overlooked by the communist-finder-in-chief. Finally McCarthy wound up on the dust heap of doom-sayers. With Cruz its Muslim terrorists. Ted, its time for you to slip away into our bad memories. Maybe you should take Carly along for company, just a thought.
