It looks like Barbara Boxer is going to have a re-election fight on her hands:
Democrat Barbara Boxer's quest for a fourth term in the U.S. Senate may give Californians a chance to pass judgment on Washington in the Obama era: Do voters approve of the early performance of the Democratic president and Congress? Or is it time to restore more power to Republicans, in this case to a controversial former Silicon Valley CEO making her first run for elective office?
What looks increasingly likely is that Boxer will be in for the re-election fight of her career. While she has yet to announce her candidacy, all signs point to a run by Republican Carly Fiorina, the charismatic ex-chief of Hewlett-Packard who was ousted from her job in 2005 and last year served as a top surrogate for John McCain's presidential bid.
Having Fiorina oust Boxer would raise the average IQ of both parties significantly.
Which, given Fiorina's track record, should tell you something...
"You owe me, Max Factor..."
Does she use the same embalmer as Pelosi?

Hewlett-Packard was one of the world's top technology companies when Carly Fiorina took it over. She turned it into primarily a reseller of commodity printers, who's biggest profit center is now the sale of toner.
All she has going for her is a monstrous ego, which is necessary, but not sufficient, to be successful in politics.
