California Republicans Find Hope In Brown's Victory

In the wake of yesterday's poll which finds Barbara Boxer vulnerable in head to head match-ups with all three of her Republican challengers, California Republicans have wasted no time seizing on the momentum of Scott Brown's victory.

Today's LA Times reports:

Scott Brown's victory in the U.S. Senate race in Massachusetts on Tuesday has given hope to the Republicans trying to defeat Barbara Boxer.

"The era of saying, well, something's a blue state and is always going to be a blue state is over," said California Senate candidate Carly Fiorina, speaking Tuesday afternoon to reporters after a speech to businesspeople in North Hollywood. "Voters are engaged."

In response to the Massachusetts election, Carly Fiorina tweets:

One thing is clear after tonight's election: Scott Brown's victory means big trouble for Barbara Boxer.

Carly Fiorina and Barbara Boxer - which one of them favors abolishing software patents? That issue could be decisive.

Campbell might win. Fiorina won't. Boxer will probably keep her seat.

Carly Fiorini wants my endorsement.
She's going to have to work for it.

does this woman have a soft brain: she nearly tanked Hewlitt, a historically great American corp., did nicely in screwing the goose in the Mccain-Palin campaign (although I did think it was divine when she screwed up-----hey, more than once), and in one moment she is mouthing rightist pap and in the next praising Jackson and the Rainbow coalition-------I really think she is dull-normal. HP found it to be true and paid her a large sum just to GO; Carly, Ca. is BROKE and cannot pay you a large sum to go after you f......up, as you inevitably will. You got a lot of money to leave HP----just spend some of it doing good works and SHUT UP. (and, hey, I don't even like Boxer----) Maybe Campbell will work----

EL-OH-EL....

If Carly or the GOP thinks that she can win the Governorship, than I have a bridge to sell you in Alaska.
Sorry, but California is NOT Massachusetts.

Carly Fiorina chose the tea partier Repugnantman party. I don't think it will choose her. Unrequited love is so depressing.

Correction: Carly Fiorina chose to become a Repugnantman.

If Carly becomes senator, I'm moving to Canada. This country has just about jumped the shark.

Carly is one of the biggest disasters in political history ever....she got fired from McCain's camp. So that would give her an IQ lower than Bible Spice who wasn't fired.
