Fiorina Still Taking On Boxer

February 10, 2012 | 12:22 p.m.

Politics is personal? No, never.

A Senate majority means many things. For National Republican Senatorial Committee Vice Chair Carly Fiorina, the outcome of November's election could hit close to home.

"You know who the chairperson of the Environment and Public Works Committee is?" Fiorina asked the crowd during her Friday speech at the Conservative Political Action Conference.

The answer is Sen. Barbara Boxer, D-Calif., who defeated Fiorina by ten points in 2010.

"I couldn't beat her, but we could get her out of her chairmanship and get this gentleman in the chairmanship," Fiorina said, referring to Sen. Jim Inhofe, R-Okla., the committee's ranking Republican.
