4:00 pm
state. >> projecting a super tuesday surprise. >> special coverage anchored by bret baier starts right here on the fox news channel. >> have a good evening. >> i am bret baier in washington. polls are now closed and former secretary of state is projected to win the palmetto state president theial primary and beating sanders by a wide varjin. this will give her momentum. and south states with significant african-american population. a major force in hillary clinton's win today. she's won three out of four contest and racked up victories
4:01 pm
in nevada and iowa. and bernie sanders seems to be at disadvantage on tuesday. hillary clinton will bring a victory speech and we'll bring it to you on fox news. steve hays. and a b to pard editor of the hill. and ron hill and charles krauthammer. a b, exit polls was overwhelming. 86 percent of those, 84 percent to it 16 for hillary clinton. >> yeah, she does have a fire wall and it held up for her. and he did not break through the way he intendñied. to she hasñi better and honest d trustworthy numbers than in the past three because black voters trust her more and white voters, too. he won with the independents and
4:02 pm
they lined up on their partisan philosophy, democrats who wanted change sanders. and white women split 50- 50. things to see here, but she has after a bitter and uglyulosis come out with a resounding victory from the voters who rejected in favor of obama in 08. they might be. and they got the word and clinton won three of four and in a better position than perhaps she was a week ago. >> it is hers to lose. the impediment if anything is the fbi inquiry. she did better than obama did. and there is a small percentage
4:03 pm
of primary gers. maybe how it has changed under bark bookkeeper obama. if you look at the states coming up and ones likely to go to sander ares and sanders. he might get 350 or 70. and it doesn't get better because unless something big changes, she will be the nominee. >> and he will stay in it. he's won the only good thing in the results is among the white voters. sanders did well in iowa waand elsewhere. he was up by 16 points and in states outside of the south that are less heavily tilted to african-american and the democratic electorate he will do reasonably well. only thing that will stop her is the comey primary.
4:04 pm
and the criminal repreferal, that is the lightning strike that will elevate sanders. he has the money and he has the biggest and most successful fund-raising machine ever and that means he will go everywhere and he will stay in even if he only is number two, it will speak for a movement. >> there are elements in here that are troubling. the young vote overwhelmingly goes to bernie sanders. 70- 30. and 65- 45. and a b mentioned white men and white women. 70- 30 against hillary clinton. >> that is troubling for her in the general election at this point. the race turns tonight. it is it a different race than it was out of new hampshire. and hillary clinton cleaned up and look the at issues and candidate qualities except for honest and trustworthy where a b
4:05 pm
pointed out it is much closer. and that is in new hampshire, the gap was 92- 6. and among other categories they won clean and decisively. it is in 2008 in the democratic primary and they had an opportunity to vote and send obama for the nomination and be the first black president in country. seven percent more people came out today than then. it is a very different race. >> if you look at bernie sanders. and hitting him repeatedly being a single issue canditate.
4:06 pm
and hillary clinton boat him in south carolina. >> that's the focus on the wall street speeches. didn't seem to she up. but there are states that it could factor in to. states like minnesota and he's home. it is the income inquality was grachlt he had a stronger margin with her. it will continue to be a narrative. and that is how hard he push ps on the wall street speeches. and he flies down the tunnel walls. and he's going to come out and swing hard at her as he tries to win oklahoma and carolina and places where he's more viable.
4:07 pm
>> is barak obama hillary clinton's fire wall? >> to the certain extent. it is the democratic party. >> you can fact check it. it is more than, what we are seeing here in south carolina, we have support with the african-american vote and the the older voters that come out in the democratic primary. the states are appealing to sanders. and masses mass, vermont and oklahoma and minnesota and carolina, the problem is we are are talking about 360 delegates. you look at both ofxd these rac. sanders is not that. and that is the last few races.
4:08 pm
and that is the polarizing cappedidates in your lifetime. >> and this question for barak rum rum and embracing him and asking people to describe their philosophy. and hillary clinton 51 percent of them are liberal. and doubled among the self described liberals. that is clone win. it is a groundswell of support.
4:09 pm
i think where we are now is the beginning of the race. bernie sanders has a narrow appeal. white liberals on the coast and the the young and the college town. that has never changed. and if you take away the african-american vote sanders is left ahead and so you can't take it away. in hispan pices we assumed hillary clinton would have a lead it was a mixed result. and they broke even. but his a pole is limited and it can't go anywhere beyond that. goldman sachs speeches can't help them. and the northern states with fewer african-american will go to sand sxand hillary clinton will get the rest.
4:10 pm
>> the democrats had a lower turn out than republicans. it does not appear that south carolina is on thetrack. and absentee ball on thes set a record and that is cast back in 2008. and that is a barak obama candidacy. and we are getting from different board county chairs and election officials that turn out will be high today on the democratic side. and checking in with the clinton campaign and staffers breathing a huge soy of relief. and they have good music going on there, ed. joishgs they are excited and choring as fox and other networks called the race for hillary clinton.
4:11 pm
maybe clinton is at her high water mark. the southern strong holds. georgia and alabama and then the map goes midwest where his message resonates. ohio and michigan andñi minneso and colorado as well. but the clinton camp, think about the stakes for them. she was in double-digits in new hampshire and we reported her campaign manager said wait, everybody calm down and wait until march. then it is all about the map. and he noted the first four early states have four percent of the delegates you need to clinch the nomination and in the first two weeks of march, you have over 50 percent of the delegates and that is hope in the clinton camp, this is the beginning of her running up the score. >> and you look, ed, at all of
4:12 pm
the states coming up and for the bernie sanders' campaign, what is hillary clinton campaign looking to do in south carolina and on on in super tuesday? are they looking at the delegate countñr and doing the map statey state or think it is the shift of the race tonight? >> reporter: the clinton believes it is shifting to a national race and you have 900 delegates at stake next tuesday. she can have a big night and then all of the sudden, the math will get difficult for bernie sanders and add on the super delegates. she has party bosses and officials that are leaning to her. they are not committed, but right now she has a huge advantage with the so- called super delegates and the clinton
4:13 pm
camp is confident in tuesday, the math is going in their direction. and sanders hopes that, he will lose tonight but they get delegates and even second place in the states next week, he will stay alive. can he win states and take the lead? >> ed, thanks. bernie sanders south carolina is in the rearview mirror. the senator was in texas getting ready for tuesday's primary and getting to minnesota for a rally inro chester. they are in grand prairie tonight, mike? >> reporter: brett, good evening, time is precious and sanders invested a lot of it in texas. here in grand prairie near dallas, he received a warm texas welcome. and the venue was estimated of
4:14 pm
730. and loud and energetic. and he was more aggressive and pushing her to release the hilo paid wall street tex. >> the transcripts. and i am making it. here they are. he had a rally down in austin that is a blue capitol of a very red state. and sanders didn't mention the south carolina primary, he talked about it a short time ago. >> we'll see what happens in south carolina and then we're in texas. i think we have a surprise for
4:15 pm
people on tuesday. >> reporter: another applause line was him saying he could beat donald trump in november. he has to put points on the board on super tuesday. brett. >> mike, thank you. and when we come back to the south carolina special. we'll break it down with karl rove. how do you stay on top of your health? ahh... ahh... cigna customers have plan choices and tools to take control.

quote
4:20 pm
obama in 2008 and tonight according to the exit 84 for her and 15 percent for sanders. that spells trouble on super tuesday for persony sanders as georgia and alabama and southern states are coming up in a coup canle of days and if that number holds for her and he worked on it. if that number works for her it will be a bad night for bernie sanders. >> bern py sanders put out a statement, he will not give a speech and he's on the road and in flight. i congratulate secretary clinton in south carolina and i am grateful for the grassroots supporters who took on the political challenge and i was all but unknown when this campaign began ten months ago.
4:21 pm
and thanks specific people and goes on to say that he will continue to fight our grassroots political revolution and growing state by state and we will not stop now. and don't let people like donald trump divide us. and we can create an economy that works for all of us. carl, what is your thoet thoughts tonight? >> with all respect to you. i would have had bernie sanders drop down and speak. she will be out there giving a victory speech. and he is be out there striking the cords that resonates. and he is making a mistake on relying journalist to read it. if this 84- 16 number holds up and black turn out is 62
4:22 pm
percent. she could have won the election in south carolina without a single white vote given the support she received with the african-americans. you would have to have a an electorate that is 85 percent white given the break down forç blacks for hillary and whites for sanders. >> is this the obama corks're coalition coming behind her? and embracing the obama campaign a smart move. >> obviously bernie sanders is doing well with millennials and younger voters. the problem for him, and i thought it in the beginning. he does well with white progressives and younger voters. there is plenty of those in new
4:23 pm
hampshire and the mostñi divers democratic party starts to come in to play. thi are trying to break in to this formidable strength. this is not working. and he's running out of time because in three days on tuesday, a lot of these states are looking like south carolina than new hampshire. >> joe, let me ask you, do you agree with charles krauthammer, barring the comey inquiry that hillary clinton will be the democratic nominee? >> south carolina broke her back last time. and this time it could break bernie sanders. >> i do, but bern py sanders will stay in to the end.
4:24 pm
he has a cause. we started a revolution. the economy is rigged against the little guy and we need to tear down wall street and help all americans. that is more powerful than i am experienced and win in november. he will be there a long time. be careful. i am not certain she will get the numbers in the african-american outside of the south. even in south carolina, the african-american is more moderate and less liberal. and a lot of people serving in the national defense and working in the military and serving in the military. more conservative and that is to say more moderate than the african-american population itself. and one minor note, i believe hillary clinton will be the nominee, but there may be surprises and we might have them in texas. in nevada caucus. he beat her among the latinos. whether that translates in
4:25 pm
texas, i don't know. if he does well with latinos, there may be a smaller margin for her. latinos make up a share of the democratic primary. >> looking at the map of super tuesday and all of the states that are up for grabs, is there a state that lines up for bernie sanders? >> the state i would be watching for on super tuesday is colorado. 67- 32 and over hillary clinton and she lost it by 35 percentage points. and sanders said it is one to win with. it it is not enough for him to win 53- 47 though. you know, he's got to start not just win withing but start to rack up obama- like wins against her particularly in states that
4:26 pm
obama carried by 30 points. if you lose south carolina and he loses carolina or win withes it slightly, that does tell you, i agree with carl, he will go to the convention and money and grassroots to do that. but a threat to the nomination, if he can't put it together in colorado, that's the state i will be watching on tuesday night. >> joe, carl, we'll head back for republican talk next. >> we'll talk surigates and single women, why they could be the key to t that opens the white house doors.

4:31 pm
people in the country and in south carolina, she talked about creating opportunities that resonates with people and you saw a decisive win across all women and african-americans and i think it gives her momentum for super tuesday. >> neal, a lot of people said why is not bernie sanders making a speech. what is your thoughts on that? >> i think south carolina is ideal for secretary clinton and deserves a lot of credit for the victory and she put time and resources and energy in the primary, and i think, we're focused and the senator's campaign is focused on on the road ahead. we think there is possibilities for growth. look at this past week, first time we saw bernie sanders win some national polls. he tied or won them straight out. that's the first time we saw
4:32 pm
them in the cycle. and as a result, given how expected the results were tonight it doesn't change the dynamic. >> neal, is there a state on super tuesday that is standing out. >> i think the vermont results will be good. i think that will work out for sxhim colorado and minnesota will be interesting and it goes beyond super tuesday. i am right here in michigan and michiganñr will be a good state for senator sanders and this will go on a long time. randy has it right. the difference could not be more clear between our side and the republican side. both are talking about income inequality. and frankly i couldn't be happier and this is california or bust. >> randy, obviously hillary clinton has connections in south
4:33 pm
carolina that goes back decades. and how does it lay out the rest of the campaign. bernie sanders is not going anywhere. >> so look i was in massachusetts today and there is huge enthusiasm which are communities for hillary clinton. they know that she listens. she is listening to people who need a chance in life and break down barriers and create opportunities and in the south carolina exit. jobs and economy are the number one issue. that is throughout the country and it is p not only attacking and reigning in wall street as important it is. it is break down barriers and creating jobs, good jobs that create incomes for families in america. i think that resonated more than anything else in south carolina. that's what i heard in nevada and heard in massachusetts and
4:34 pm
heard in florida. people want results. >> this is your candidate hillary clinton asked about the e-mail investigation just the other day. >> this is a security inquiry going on and we respect that, it is on its own time table and it is moving forward and then there are lawsuits. i am personally not concern body it. i think there will be be a resolution on the security inquiry and the litigation that others have brought and some are right wing outfits. those will just proceed. >> obviously there is a federal investigation here, is there any inkling in theñr supporters thi is a little bit of a concern? >> you know, this woman has been the public light for 25 years. in the last 20 years that i have
