CA-Sen: S.E. Cupp’s 8 Questions for Carly Fiorina

Read the light-hearted and more personal interview of Carly Fiorina here.

SE: Politicians are much maligned in America right now. If you want some love, why not go into the NFL or hip hop?

CF: Because I throw like a girl, and my hip-hop skills are worse than Betty White’s.

But in all seriousness, the last thing I want to do is become a politician. I am doing this because I think our nation is headed in the wrong direction and I think that my experience in job creation can help inform the solutions to our challenges.

I think our government was designed to be comprised of citizens from the real world who took time to serve a term or two in Congress
and then to return to private life. That’s what I think our Founding Fathers intended in establishing a citizen government. But in recent decades, we’ve seen more and more career politicians who become beholden to the special interest groups that fund their campaigns and who are more interested in winning re-election than they are in serving their constituents.

SE: Who would you want to play you in a movie?

CF: Annette Bening.

SE: Your house is going up in flames and you can save one (non-living) thing. What is it?

CF: A painting my mother completed that hangs in our living room.

SE: If you can make one promise to voters, what would it be?

CF: I will never forget whom I work for. I will always want to hear from my employers, the people of California, and I will always want them to be honest with me, whether it’s the good, the bad or the ugly.

And, Carly can have some fun.

Quite a contrast from Babs Boxer, no?
