Boxer's new strategy: Go after the 'bad hair' vote
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/38138677/ns/politics/

Sen. Barbara Boxer thinks she might have a winning strategy: Go after the "bad hair" vote.

The three-term Democratic senator was in Sacramento on Wednesday on the second day of a statewide campaign tour highlighting job creation. She told The Associated Press she felt her campaign had the proper response after her opponent, Republican Carly Fiorina, was caught June 9 on an open microphone describing the three-term senator's coif as "so yesterday."

At the time, Boxer's campaign said the senator would rather talk about jobs than her hair. On Wednesday, Boxer joked about revising that stance.

"I was thinking, what if every single person whoever had a bad hair day, male or female, voted for me? I'd win my a landslide," Boxer quipped while riding in a van on her way to a press conference at Sacramento International Airport. "So I decided I'm going after the bad hair vote."

3. I believe she's the only senator to ever guest star on Curb Your Enthusiasm
So she's also got the bald vote locked up.
