Yesterday I blogged about the announcement by former Hewlett Packard CEO Carly Fiorina (pictured right) that she was taking the initial steps that one would take if looking at an official run for the U.S. Senate — filing her campaign committee name with the federal government, and bringing on board some communications consultants. You can read that here.

Today Carly Fiorina, the former Chief Executive Officer of Hewlett Packard, announced that she has filed the name, "Carly for California," with the IRS — which is the very, very first thing that you do if you are looking to run for federal office. Fiorina, who was very visible on the stump for the Presidential campaign of United States Senator John McCain last year, has been talking to people about a potential bid for the U.S. Senate seat currently occupied by ultra-liberal Barbara Boxer for some time now.
