Cheshire Cat Photo Blog(...said the Cat: 'we're all mad here....')

Over the weekend, somehow, mercifully, I was spared the viewing of Carly Fiorina‘s new attack video, dubbed “HindenBoxer.” Again, mercifully, the Republican “fireball” did not add any real “flames” to this video. The metaphorical flames were bad enough.

Frankly, I enjoyed Pixar‘s film, “Up!” much more! Maybe it was the “positive energy” of the Pixar film….

Yes, the candidate (yes, she spent 20 years at AT&T) who brought you the “Demon Sheep” attack ad is at it again, this time with an ad against Senator Barbara Boxer, Fiorina’s ultimate opponent, should Fiorina by some chance win the Republican primary in her attempt to win Boxer‘s Senate seat. No positive energy in THIS one! The anti-Boxer ad runs over seven minutes. You might have to be a “knee-jerk” conservative to like this ad. Or just a jerk….

Not that Boxer is a favorite of mine, either….

The reaction of the Boxer camp was swift. According to SFGate:

“Not even another bizarre video can distract voters from Fiorina’s record as a failed CEO who laid off 28,000 workers and shipped California jobs overseas,” said Rose Kapolczynski, Boxer campaign manager. “While Fiorina spends time producing works of fiction, Barbara Boxer is focused on creating good jobs in California and getting our economy back on track.”

I am feeling a little nauseated tonight – not sure whether it is from “springing ahead” into Daylight Savings Time over the weekend, or whether it results from the “revisionist history” of Carly Fiorina (after her support of disastrous offshoring of Americans’ jobs) or from Barbara Boxer’s “distinguished” record in the U.S. Senate. Maybe a good night’s sleep will help….

I DO wish that more of California’s politicians were sincerely interested in saving California, however. It is a good state, with good people, and I LIKE it here.
