GOP candidate Carly Fiorina took pandering to an entirely new low on New Years’ Day, saying she’s cheering for the University of Iowa Hawkeyes in the Rose Bowl today against her own alma mater, Stanford University.
Love my alma mater, but rooting for a Hawkeyes win today. #RoseBowl

Fiorina graduated from Stanford in 1976 with a Bachelor of Arts in philosophy and medieval history, and also underwent surgery at the school’s hospital in 2009 after a breast cancer diagnosis.
She was met with swift criticism over her desperation to appeal to Iowa voters.
