Pounce!

As we noted earlier, Carly Fiorina has suddenly leapfrogged into a big lead in the California GOP Senate primary — no doubt leading to corks spontaneously popping out of champagne bottles at the DSCC — apparently because she’s been able to run a big TV ad campaign for the last week or two basically unchallenged by her main opponent former Rep. Tom Campbell. But there was a candidate debate this afternoon where Campbell and conservative favorite Chuck DeVore got to go after Fiorina and try to reclaim the momentum in the race. Most of the attacks seemed to center on Fiorina’s not only being new to politics but actually new to voting too.
