Fiorina Shines In GOP ‘Undercard’
Metro Detroit is home to many mosques, especially in the Dearborn area. Lindsey Graham, but neither held on for more than about 20 minutes. We need to tear down cyber walls on a targeted basis. When they made no sense, she argued her points coherently.
After the initial attacks on Trump, the businessman faded into the background as candidates talked about immigration, the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) and the recentcontroversy surrounding Planned Parenthood.
We’re not sure how much any of it will matter in the end but – at least according to the punditocracy, former Hewlett-Packard executive Carly Fiorina bested the boys at what we at Metro called The Kiddie Table.
PATAKI: Religious liberty doesn’t include a fellow American to engage in jihad. That is not protected free speech. That is like yelling fire in a crowded theater. He added: “I can’t tell you how much this nation threatened”.
She called for greater cooperation between the public and private sectors to prevent and respond to cyber threats and attacks.
When other candidates stammered, Carly Fiorina was eloquent.
At one point, even one of Fiorina’s on-stage rivals, former Texas Gov. Rick Perry, gave her props.
The former Virginia governor was the last of the 17 Republicans to join the presidential field and he also may have the lowest name recognition. He also seems to imply he would make Fiorina his Secretary of State, saying he would trust her negotiating this deal more than current Secretary of State John Kerry. She mused that Bubba may not have called her because she didn’t donate money to Hillary Clinton’s Senate campaign or the Clinton Foundation.
The main debate is tonight at 9pm Eastern with the top ten candidates.
Fiorina has played it nice thus far in the race-too nice.
But based on what Graham had to say about his life, maybe he had a good reason to come to the debate with such a lifeless attitude. Fred Thompson.
The elephant in the room – a Republican one of course – not on the early show stage was Republican frontrunner Donald Trump. “He’s using his celebrity rather than his conservatism”. How can you run for the republican nomination and be for single payer health care? Perry said.
Instead, he watered down his rhetoric in response to a question of whether, as evidenced by his poll numbers, that Trump was “getting the best” of the Republicans in the field. But for numerous seven candidates onstage, two words were not enough.
And Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal chose to target Clinton as a socialist: “Give Bernie Sanders credit”.
Then she continued, tearing into his frequent flip-flops on policies ranging from immigration to abortion.
FIORINA: I hope Congress says no to this deal. “I didn’t get a phone call from Bill Clinton before I jumped in the race”, she said, hinting at reports that the former President phoned Trump as he was launching his campaign.
Trump, the New York billionaire real estate tycoon who has rocketed to the top of opinion polls, proved to be an easy target for Perry and Fiorina when they were asked about Trump’s rapid rise. The buzzer was scarce as the candidates chose to abide by the rules and avoid swipes at each other – a rare occurrence, at times, in the world of presidential candidate forums. Perry vowed to bring along a bottle of Wite-Out to undo the previous president’s actions.
Trump, flanked by Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker and former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, may be more of a target when the major contenders get on the stage.
