Fiorella expected better from the ninth Republican debate, but maybe the wannabes were all tuckered out. Instead of answering the questions posed by the moderator, they spent their allotted times sniping at each other and repeating gasbag campaign rhetoric we've already heard. The GOP can do better. Somewhere out there is another Dwight Eisenhower, Ronald Reagan, or Theodore Roosevelt. Please--FIND HIM!

Nostradama Fiorella's Pognostication
The campaigning for the GOP nomination started way too early and the candidates have worn out both themselves and their welcome. Fio predicts that in the last couple of months before the July convention, a dark horse will emerge and win the day.

Fio Likes Chris Christie
It wasn't that long ago that Chris Christie, Republican governor of New Jersey, was a party favorite. He was popular, tough talking, and ran a tight ship. Not only was he considered for the vice-presidential slot, but he also was a prominent speaker at the convention in Tampa.
Then came Sandy, the hurricane that devastated New Jersey, and Christie worked closely with President Obama and FEMA to clean up the mess, supply displaced families with food, clothing and shelter, and reestablish some degree of normalcy. The GOP demonized him. He's even been accused of losing the election for Romney by expressing his gratitude to Obama and FEMA. So now Christie's future with the Republican party is cooked, and all for doing the right thing--taking care of the people he was elected to take care of. What was he supposed to have done? Spit in Obama's face? Refuse all federal aid?
Fio didn't know much about Chris Christie except that he was a Republican up-and-comer, but she'd liked what she'd seen, and she likes him even more because of the pragmatic way he handled the Sandy crisis. It was nice to see someone who could work together with the federal government and someone on the other side of the aisle. Here's a Republican she could vote for in four years.
If he ever gets the chance to run.
