U.S. Senate candidate Carly Fiorina got caught inadvertently jabbering into an open mike on CNN just before capturing the GOP nomination. She seems none too impressed with the campaign wisdom of fellow Republican Meg Whitman, the party's gubernatorial candidate. Fiorina also has some explaining to do to Fox News talk show host Sean Hannity.

And she thinks Barbara Boxer has bad hair.
