Open mic catches GOP Senate nominee Fiorina poking fun at rival Boxer’s hair

Calif Senate candidate takes jab at Boxer’s hair

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Just hours after clinching the GOP nomination for U.S. Senate, Carly Fiorina was caught on an open microphone making fun of her opponent Barbara Boxer’s hairstyle.

While prepping for an interview with Sacramento’s KXTV on Wednesday morning, Fiorina was recorded laughing loudly as she described the three-term senator’s hair as “so yesterday.”

But during an interview Wednesday night on the Fox News Channel with Greta Van Susteren, Fiorina claimed she was actually quoting a friend. Fiorina added that her own hair has been “talked about by a million people.”

The microphone also captured Fiorina questioning a decision by Republican gubernatorial nominee Meg Whitman to be interviewed Wednesday by Fox News Channel’s Sean Hannity. Fiorina called it “bizarre” and a “bad choice.”

Fiorina told Van Susteren that she apologized to Hannity and will be going on his show Friday.
