he'll make an explicit pitch to the tea party voters. >> let's look at carly fiorina now. >> carly fiorina will be probably the only female republican in this race. she is is former executive of hewlett-packard. she also has never held elected office which could be a weakness for her. one important thing to remember about carly fiorina, as the only woman she's made an explicit pitch even in her video discussing her run this morning, she made an explicit pitch showing a video of hillary clinton announcing her run and then her saying "we don't want career politicians." so as a woman she'll criticize hillary clinton and we'll say this isn't about gender this is about policy. >> she's probably going to be touting her management skills having been with hewlett-packard for so many years. let's take a look at one other person mike huckabee. we hear he is going to jump in the race. what are his strengths and weaknesses. >> he'll announce in hope, arkansas. he did very well with evangelical voters in 2008. he won the iowa caucuses but petered out later in the race. he will definitely be reaching ou

and carly fiorina then pivoted to this. let's take a listen to what she said. >> she hasn't said what happened from 2011 when both she and president obama declared victory in iraq. they declared victory in iraq in 2011. she was the secretary of state. no one is declaring victory in iraq now. what happened? what would she do? what would she have done? >> is this the best way for republicans to turn the page? >> no. nobody's going to believe that george w. bush had nothing to do with iraq and that the war was won, and first of all, it's not true that they declared victory in iraq. and unfortunately for carly fiorina, she has virtually no credibility because nobody knows who she is. she did run for the senate in california, which is a big, tough race, but nobody knows who she is. so you can't have somebody who nobody knows attacking somebody who everybody in america knows. >> but isn't this punching up? basically she has now inserted herself in the story about hillary clinton today. >> yes, and that is smart. because among rep

that's exactly what carly fiorina did today.o make a name for herself in that crowded republican field, trying to break out of it. today on secretary clinton's first visit to south carolina in seven years, carly fiorina arrived right outside her doorstep. as hillary clinton swept into south carolina today, she had company on the campaign trail. >> people running for present gave a lot of speeches. >> reporter: carly fiorina stepped directly into her spotlight. >> i am running to live again at 1600 pennsylvania avenue. >> reporter: it wasn't exactly a shootout at high noon but the latest in a game of follow the leader. fiorina is fighting to be seen as clinton's rival. she hopes it elevates her from the crowded gop pack. it started when fiorina's own announcement video featured clinton. >> i'm running for president. >> reporter: and continued to the campaign trail, from iowa -- >> i'm criticizing hillary clinton because i come from a world where a title is just a title. and talk is just talk. >> reporter: to new hampshire -- >> h

and that is exactly the audience for carly fiorina. she's the only candidate in the republican field who is a woman and the only one going after hillary clinton. and it won't hurt her in a close primary, in the democratic race. but i think in a general election, if she does get the nomination, it could be a problem for her. >> yeah. i think you're right in the sense that hillary clinton wants that crossover appeal. she wants a huge gender gap that would ostensibly mean attracting independent women. and potentially republican women who see her as aspirational women, a fundamental part of her candidacy. when i talk to women 60 and above, they seem to be most enthusiastic about the idea of a woman being president. i think carly fiorina is wise to try to present herself as the republican alternate of. i think they both have issues that could detract from the ordinary not of their experience -- ordinariness of the arena. >> fiorina was the breakout star. more to come. great to see you, and anne. clinton will be speaking in an hour. now back

i'm car think fiorina and i'm -- i'm carly fiorina and i'm running for president.tha: she immediately targeted hillary clinton. she turned her off with the remote control. but she is not the only candidate to announce this week. dr. ben carson is expected to get in the race. also former arkansas governor mike huckabee is expected to make an announcement by tomorrow. karl rove served as deputy chief of staff to president george w. bush. what did you make of carly fiorina's rollout? >> each one of these candidates will do it in a different way. carly fiorina, the ceo of hewlett-packard did it on the internet. ben carson is going to return to detroit. and mike huckabee is returning to arkansas. it's his home and its the home of bill clinton. we are off to the races. the size of the republican field has doubled. we'll have three candidates in the race and tomorrow i expect we'll have six. martha: obviously these guys are long-shots and ladies. how do you think they stack up? >> they are long-shots. carly fiorina in the real clear politics average has 1%. ben carson 4.8

i'm carly fiorina and i'm running for president. >> reporter: fiorina has never held public office and has virtually no political experience. >> the republican party is looking to see do you have name recognition? do people know who you are and can you raise money? this is about viability of a candidacy. there's no question she can be a candidate but can she be a viable candidate is the question. >> reporter: he says fiorina's ties to the tech industry could give her an early advantage with fundraising. >> it's time for citizens to stand up to the political class and say enough. >> reporter: a washington outsider who spent the balance of her career in the business world, fiorina is hoping voters looking for a different type of candidate in 2016. silicon valley leadership ceo says fiorina has made a career out of defying the odds and that it would be a mistake to count her out just yet. >> we're going to watch a very crowded field of republicans because today's frontrunner and today's also ran may still not be the case once we start getting in to the primary and caucus season. >> shortl

our guest is former hewlett packard ceo, republican carly fiorina. tonight we'll be getting to know her and where she stands on the key issues. at the start of the program, as always i'll ask the candidate a few questions. after a break we'll bring in the studio audience to ask their questions in what is a town hall type format. before that, let's look at the candidate's biography. carly fiorina was born in austin texas, went on to get her mba in marketing from university of maryland and master of science from m.i.t. she worked for at&t in an entry level sales position and led the spinout of lucent technologies. in 1999 she was recruited to hewlett packard the first woman to lead a fortune 450 business. she spent six years at the chairman and ceo of the company. she serves as the chairman of unlocking potential projects, the union foundation, good 360 and opportunity international. she ran for u.s. senate in california in 2010 and moved to virginia to be with her husband to be with her daughter and two granddaughters. >> thanks for joining us. >> gla

carly fiorina has been spending part of her day here. she attended a des moines editorial boards and we will have more on that later. john: the iowa republican party says it is cutting charges to campaigns for its predidential straw poll. it will be less of a fundraiser and more of a festival. and this is a big deal. it has had some issues and problems in the past cycles. who wins and who loses with this change? mark halperin apparently gone. we have lost our connection for, so i will head back to francine lacqua. i'm hoping she is still there. francine, are you there? let's talk about the exit polls. give us some details. francine: the exit polls are important. we have been speaking to a lot of pollsters, so the margin of error is still about 2%-3%. that means it can be about 10 seats off. it seems that the conservatives have 316 seats. the exit poll doesn't mean it is completely right. because we have so many more smaller parties, when you speak to pollsters, they say this is probably the most uncertain exit poll because it is that muc

he's polling same as carly fiorina.n't always make sense the way the media decides to dismiss the non-conventional candidates. >> the danger of relying on polls, there's somebody that breaks out, whether huckabee in 2008 or rick santorum in 2012, who was hardly getting coverage. suddenly they get hot even though they were down in the polls and don't have much money. betsy, you want to know how the liberal media view these three candidates and others on the gop side. "new york times" columnist timothy egan this morning calling this a fringe festival and saying the republican clown car has turned into a clown bus. >> well carly fiorina certainly isn't a frank candidate. most of the stances she's staked out are very much in the middle of how republicans feel about national policy issues. huckabee is a little further to the right. i can maybe understand using that particular adjective. i think referring to a clown bus, i mean come on. that's certainly not fair. and as a reporter i would much rather prefer covering a bus ful
