DES MOINES — After 11 Republican presidential contenders spoke to a huge gathering of Iowa party activists at the Lincoln Day Dinner this month, they moved to hospitality suites to greet people one on one.

Jeb Bush’s suite looked sparse, with a handful of visitors asking the former Florida governor for a photo. Rick Santorum said hello to a scattering of old supporters.

But the line to meet one candidate, Carly Fiorina, a former Silicon Valley executive whose name recognition is negligible among voters, snaked down the hallway. For more than an hour, Iowans filed into the suite for their chance to meet Ms. Fiorina.

Female candidates as party nominees for both. By the way, Hillary could beat her easily. Hillary is qualified to be president. No republican of the 20 or whatever number it is, is not.

She seems stiff and one dimensional. She ties everything back to business no matter what the topic. I guess that's what Republican's like.
