[ applause ] they are both -- they are both the ultimate insiders. i mean, wow, john boehner says yesterday that donald trump is his texting and golfing buddy and harry reid thinks donald trump is okay, too, and donald trump contributed seven times to hillary clinton. i'm sorry, it is not a choice or a contrast when donald trump agrees with hillary clinton on so many positions. yeah, he's okay with the iranian nuclear deal. yeah, he's okay with single payer health care. yeah, he was okay until he wasn't on partial birth abortion. you go on and on and on. how long have republicans and conservatives said we can only win by presenting a clear contrast? so here it is. people of indiana, cruz/fiorina, trump/clinton. [ cheers and applause ] >> you mentioned john boehner. i'm a commentator. i had strong words to say about him yesterday. i'm pretty ticked of

carly fiorina his running mate will be speaking at the dinner tonight. we are going to have more coming up at 6:30 for you. >> thank you. we'll check back with you then. >>> also, on the democratic side bernie sanders opened up his second california campaign today here in the bay area on college avenue in oakland. sanders had another campaign office in l.a. hillary clinton opened an oakland office of her own earlier this week and she will bring her campaign to california on thursday and friday holding events in oakland and also los angeles. >>> clouds of smoke billowed over the park street bridge in oakland today. here's how it looked as a fire started there this morning. another witness shot this photo from farther away as a huge plume of smoke rose into the air firefighters were called to the dock at 2201 east 7th street at 11:45. that's just behind the miller milling company. about half the pier there was destroyed. no boats were attached to the pier. the smoke was so black, though, because of how the wood itself was treated. >> the pier is built out

you talk about fiorina.k when she was a candidate running for president she took some shots at you. shear was one. >> ted cruz is just like any other politician, he says one thing in manhattan, he says another thing in iowa, he says whatever he needs to say to get elected and then he's going to do as he pleases. >> less than four months ago there was your running mate basically saying you are a typical politician. >> look, chris, she was a competitor in a primary, she was a vigorous competitor and competitors in primaries throw shots at each other. we all remember when reagan named george herbert walker bush and they had to explain why bush had called reagan om iks voodoo economics. i spent weeks and weeks campaigning with carly. i've gotten to know her personally and i've got to tell you, you know, in selecting a vice president that's probably the most serious decision any presidential candidate will make. i was looking for someone with knowledge, with judgment and with character, with the sort of temperame

plus, what would you like to asz naming carly fiorina as his running mate?o to facebook or twitter @fox news sunday. we may use your question on the air. >> why didn't you do more to put bin laden and al qaeda out of business when you were president? >> so you did fox's bidding on this show. you did your nice little conservative hit job on me. >> wait a minute, sir. >> what i want to know -- >> you don't think that was legitimate? >> it was legitimate. but how many people in the bush administration did you ask this question of. >> all the talk about the nuclear program, the aluminum tubes was wrong. >> the intelligence apt the time and it is a fact you can only >>> i think we are engaged in a fight for the soul of our party. i think values and principles and policies actually matter. >> ted cruz and his running mate carly fiorina now both taking on donald trump ahead of the crucial indiana primary. it's time now for our sunday group. syndicated columnist george will, co-host of the five kimberly guilfoyle, author of the book "making the case. gop strategist

will the cruz/fiorina team do the same thing to indiana she did to hewlett-packard?> carly has an incredible business record and an incredible personal story. carly started as a secretary and rose the corporate ladder to be ceo, the first female ceo -- >> but, sir -- >> she was the first female ceo of a fortune 20 company in history. she helped hp become the largest technology company in the world, achieve remarkable success. many jobs were transferred from one state to another within the united states. when it comes to bringing jobs back to america, there could not be a clearer contrast between carly and me on the one hand and donald trump and hillary clinton on the other. donald trump and hillary clinton are flip sides of the same coin. they both have the same approach. take carrier. that's a good example. it is a travesty that they are pulling jobs out of indiana, moving them to mexico. the reason they are doing it is because of the obama administration's crushing taxes and crushing regulations. what is donald trump's response to that? he says he's going to punish

fiorina: hello hoosiers! [applause] ms. fiorina: i know that i speak for the entire cruz family, the entire cruz team, when i tell you how many hoosiers we have fallen in love with on this campaign.

up stayed they spent 24 hours paying attention to carly fiorina somebody else taking attention to this is former speaker of the house john boehner. there was a little video of him last night with the president as they were talking about how you condition conduct yourself after you leave hovs. baiper was funny in that and had sharp things to say about senator senator ted cruz listen to this. >> i have nev worked with a more miserable sop of a [bleep [bleep]. >> he did not say son of a gun i can promise you that. clearly john boehner was not of the mind of saying anything nice about ted cruz but veronica did this go too far and does this -- is this another example of the kind of rhetoric we've seen in this campaign cycle. >> i don't think it's good for cruz it addsed to narrative and conversation that ted cruz is not a likable guy. it's not good for him. however you feel about boehner it's another person saying he's difficult to work with. ted cruz came out with tweets or was speaking and said i talked to the guy a handful of times. why would boehner make it up. whether it's true or not

earlier, it was on another heavy hitter, carley fiorina. is former hp ceo is with ted cruz. we have the message tonight. >> reporter: this is where fiorina delivered her speech earlier tonight. she praised cruz, blasted trump and says she believes she and cruz have a shot at becoming the republican nominees. potential republican vice president candidate and former hewlett-packard ceo, carley fiorina returned to the bay area to convince california republicans to vote for ted cruz. she and the texas senator are the only republican team to offer real change. >> the day we have a corrupt system. it is a corrupt system where too much power and too much money have been concentrated in the hands of too few for too long. >> reporter: she spoke in burling game and couldn't resist taking jabs at donald trump. >> donald trump isn't going to challenge the system. donald trump is the system. >> the next president of the united states, ted cruz. >> reporter: earlier today, former california governor introduced and endorsed senator ted cruz. he said as president, he would repeal obamacare,

after ted cruz and his running mate, carly fiorina noting how she slip and fell off a stage yesterday. donald trump said in a rally even he would have helped carly fiorina get back up on the stage, noting that ted cruz did not. we should point out that heidi cruz tried to lend a hand. the campaign is having missteps in the final hours before the primary. donald trump is trying to exploit every one of them. >> ted cruz had multiple events. he tried to stop trump and what he needs before the election. he encountered a handful of hecklers. take a look. >> do the math. kasich should dropout and now it's your turn. time to dropout. >> indiana don'tment you. >> you are entitled to have your

why else did cruz reach out to carly fiorina. fiorinaablys some much needed energy to that ticket. they're combatible on key issues such as abortion, immigration, more important by the way, the outsiders. second as a woman, fiorina's presence will partially offset the presence of a woman, hillary clinton the likely democratic nominee. and then finally, at least in california. fiorina's presence may offer the hope that the so-called don ballot republican candidate might do better than they might have otherwise. >> a lot of upside, is it enough to sway voters? she does come with some baggage there. >> fiorina has only run for office once. and that was in 2010. when she lost her u.s. senate race by barbara boxer by a whopping 10 points. she was heavily criticized for laying off 30,000 employees as part of the hewlett-packard contract which led to her termination or downfall really. when we're talking about fiorina at hp, she really didn't get alongwell with her fellow tech folks. there was no love lost when she left california and went back to washington. >> she's impacted a lot of li

he named carly fiorina as his

she continued to shake people's hands while fiorina was down.ald trump quickly seized on the incident. >> by the way, she fell off the stage the other day. did anybody see that? and cruz didn't do anything. even i would have helped her. okay? no, it's true. >> cruz of course tapped fiorina as his running mate last week. the democratic race for president will also go to the voters in indiana today. polls showing the contest there, a very close one. hillary clinton with her lead in the delegates is looking ahead to the general election, focusing on donald trump. bernie sanders meanwhile he's vowing to stay in the race saying the democratic convention in philadelphia will be a contested one. of course be sure to have the free nbc 10 app on your smartphone or tablet. we'll send you push alerts as soon as tonight's primary results are in. live in the digital operations center, i'm vai sikahema, nbc 10 news. tracy, i'll join you in the studio, top of the hour. >> we'll see you at 5:00, vai, thanks. >>> new video of a fire rescue in california. take a

>> is the press being dismissive cruz picking carly fiorina? >> a piercest campaign critic is also one of his oldest friends, a conversation with geraldo rivera, and hillary clinton brace sells that she may not win the nomination. >> that was june 7, 2008, when you endorsed president obama. june 7, 2016 will be the california primary. that is when you, if you are ahead in the vote --. >> i am ahead in the vote. i am ahead. >> what about bernie sanders complaining the press is unfairly writing him off some. >> a report from the white house correspondents' dinner and president obama's last chance to stick it to the press. and others. >> i want to thank the press corps, and carol for all you do. the free express are central to our democracy -- i'm just kidding! you know i'm going to talk about trump. come on! >> i am kurtz -- howard kurtz and this is "media buzz". >> it was only a couple of weeks ago that donald trump was calling most of the media "dishonest." >> we hike the media. do you we hate the media? >> after he won person, maryland, delawa

we now have a vice presidential candidate -- sort of -- carly fiorina.t do you think is going on? mr. trump accused hillary clinton of being able to pull only 5 percent of the vote if she was not a woman and then you have the over compensation on the other side with carly fiorina. what do you see? jay: so trump's comments -- trump has always been incredibly weak with women and that's one of -- if he has an achilles' heel or kryptonite it is women, because every time he has gone after women in the campaign whether it's megyn kelly at fox or even hillary clinton, his poll numbers, he has a taken a hit with poll numbers. one of the many groups where he does not do very well is women. it's such an important voting bloc. you could say that women are the "trump" card in the any election, because they make up 53% of the electorate already and they vote 10 percent more in presidential cycles than men do. to give you an idea of how much a challenge trump faces in the general election, he is underwater with women by 73 percentage points. he has to make up over 60

we moved to where carly fiorina is about to speak. >> i know i speak for the entire cruz family, the entire when i tell you how many hoosiers we have fallen in love with on this campaign. all the wonderful people who have shown up at rallies across the state. the retail stops where people let what looks like all some foo -- awesome food get cold while we all stood and talked about the state you love and the state we have come to love, and the nation we all love. >> we love you! came together as fellow warriors. warriors in a cause. to save the soul of our party, the character and the future of our nation. and that cause continues. and you are warriors still. know, you know what makes this country extraordinary. you know that we are extraordinary because, while people are gifted by god all over the world, it is only in this nation that so many people have been given the opportunity to realize their god-given gifts. we've been given that opportunity because we were founded on two powerful ideas. one, that each of us has a right to find and use our god-given gifts, a right to life, libe

. >> to carly fiorina, who has been an incredible, phenomenal running mate. >> larry: yes, she was a phenomenal running mate, for the entire 144 hours and 32 minutes she was on the ticket. she could have left her car running. it's ridiculous. here now to give us his perspective on what went wrong with the campaign, is cruz-fiorina strategist, chad estrada. ( cheers and applause ) hey, chad. >> thanks for having me. it's a sad, sad day lawrence, >> larry: i'm sure it is. so immediately after carly fiorina was put on the ticket, ted cruz went on to have his worst week of the campaign, culminating in his dropping out of the race. you tell me, what went wrong? >> i have no idea! we drew up a kick-ass strategy, which carly followed to a tee and, boom, nothing. the whole goddamn thing ( bleep ), thing ( bleep ), the bed. poop everywhere. >> larry: wait, this past week went exactly as planned? >> hell, yeah. here's what we told that lyin' ted. >> larry: wait, the cruz campaign calls him "lyin' ted," as well? >> oh, god, yeah. that guy's a sociopath. we call him lyin' ted. anywho, here's wha

and carly fiorina's fall tonight. donald trump needs to win 47% of the remaining total delegates to land the republican nomination outright. avoiding a contested convention. tonight, the newest poll shows trump at 49%. that's a 15-point lead over ted cruz in indiana. and then, that startling moment at a ted cruz rally, running mate carly fiorina tumbling off the stage after introducing cruz and his family. fiorina is okay. but donald trump pouncing, saying, at least he would have helped her. abc's tom llamas leads us off from indiana. >> reporter: tonight, donald trump seizing on this moment to mock ted cruz's struggling campaign. >> and the next president of the united states, ted cruz. >> reporter: carly fiorina, the senator's running mate, falling off that stage in lafayette, indiana. losing her footing as the cruz family walked out. trump putting his own spin on what happened. >> she just went down. she went down a long way, right? and she went down right in front of him and he was talking, he kept talking. he did

reporter: cruz, his wife, and would be running mate carly fiorina are making 10 stops in indiana today and tomorrow, his delegate chasers fine unfledged and -- unpledged and cruz delegates leading the g.o.p. party. >> seriously, i don't think it matters it would be nice to have the republican party come together with that said, i think i will win anyway. reporter: bobby knight has been reving up crowds. >> trump leads average of polls by 9.3. if results tuesday. trump could get close to a theser sweep, 30 delegates to state wide winner, and 3 at a time to winner in open of 9 conditional congressional districts. -- he cut a deal with kasich. if trump wins in indiana his opponents know it will be very hard to stop him. >> carl cameron thank you very much. lou: on democratic side issue senator sanders hoping to pull off a win in indiana after a tough week of losses in northeast and campaign layoff, hillary clinton, is looking ahead to west virginia, next tuesday. but she is struggling to connection with a voter group that trump won over with ease, working men and women of our middle class

carly fiorina i don't actually, but just for the joke, let's say i do.e's like a passenger who boards a ship as it's sinking. speaking of sinking, this is the one time i'll ask you to pay attention to carly fiorina. keep watching carly fiorina. >> and the next president to have the united states, ted cruz! >> carly fiorina, the senator 's running mate losing her footing as he was introducing the cruz family -- >> trevor: that's the second time carly's dropped out of the race. (audience reacts) carly falling down is a little funny for me. carly falling down at an event where ted cruz is talking about the country being at the edge of a cliff -- that's a bit funnier. (laughter) carly falling down while running a campaign against the one man who would never let that (bleep) go? now we're talking. >> she just went down! she went down a long way, right? and she went down right in front of him and he was talking and he kept talking and cruz didn't do anything! even i would have helped her, okay? no, it's true! >> trevor: even i would have helped her! even i wou

. >> maybe you see carly fiorina one-on-one. big lal -- rallies, yes. they were relying on hand to hand contact, a lot of handshaking, individual, selfie taking and politics with individual voters trying to convert this state one voter at a time. of course, the endorsement of governor has to help with some of his organization perhaps as well. also the cruz-fiorina campaign believe to do a better job to do better on-the-ground, but the one-on-one sort of thing that you see played out here that may also have a big role to play in this campaign as we go toward the all important vote. whose to say who has the edge, the polls have been mixed but this sort of thing certainly doesn't hurt. that's the latest from the campaign trail. lauren: jeff flock in indianapolis. cheryl: exclusive interview sounding confident about path to nomination. >> if you win indiana tuesday, is this race over? >> yes, it's over.think it's ovs over. cruz cannot win. he has no highway. he has nothing. he's way behind. i'm leading him by millions and millions of votes and 4-500 delegat
