Statement from California Democratic Party Chairman John Burton on Carly Fiorina’s Decision to Run for U.S. Senate

"The last thing Californians need in a U.S. Senator is a failed CEO who was fired by her last employer after taking $100 million for herself.
"In these tough times, hard-working Californians need a Senator who will fight to create jobs, not a millionaire former executive who laid off more than 28,000 Americans and shipped jobs overseas.
"Carly Fiorina may have millions to spend on a Senatorial race, but Californians will not be snookered by yet another millionaire neophyte in search of a new hobby.
"Maybe Fiorina’s ill-advised run for Senate will finally inspire her to take the time to vote.
"Senator Boxer and the California Democratic Party will be ready for Assemblymember Chuck DeVore, Fiorina or whoever wins the Republican primary in 2010."
