very nice to the vice president in her speech saying she agrees with him. he dropped out. he never really got into the race but he wasn t running, she must have been relieved to see that. i think she has great tremendous personal respect for the vice president. he would have been a formidable challenger in this campaign if he had gotten into the race. that said, we realize it was a tremendously difficult decision for him but as hillary clinton has said, he s going to remain a fighter and she looked forward to working with him on that. dr. ben carson is ahead of donald trump. he had this exchange on fox news radio. i ll play it to you. it involves hillary clinton. you know, hillary could well be in jail and it s hard to run from there. you think some indictable offense is going to come out of the benghazi hearing or fbi investigation. or the computer server
her campaign. i can t tell you how great it feels to be here on this beautiful day, out in the sunshine. reporter: a commanding debate performance, escaping the joe biden challenge, and emerging unscathed from a grueling benghazi hearing. today, a victory lap in virginia. a summertime controversy becoming a fall triumph. you want to talk about a fighter, how about those 11 hours of testimony yesterday! reporter: virginia governor and longtime clinton confidant, terry mcauliffe, leading the cheers. this is why she needs to be our commander in chief! the benghazi hearing has hung over clinton s campaign like a dark cloud, but she stood her ground and kept her cool during a session that lasted 11 hours, knowing not everyone is on her side. i really don t care what y all say about me, it doesn t bother me a bit. reporter: committee chairman trey gowdy conceded he learned
in the polls, yes, in the short-term. but even more immediately the sudden surge of rank democrats who have been so worried about secretary clinton s e-mail controversy and summertime slump. but today she had a wide smile in her face and bounce in her step. this is the campaign she s been waiting for. hillary clinton is back on her feet. hello everybody! and confident after the strongest ten-day stretch of her campaign. i can t tell you how great it feels to be here on this beautiful day out in the sunshine. a commanding debate performance, escaping a joe biden challenge and emerging unscathed from a grilli ining benghazi hearing. today a victory lap in virginia. hillary! a summertime controversy becoming a fall triumph. you want to talk about a fighter, how about those 11 hours of testimony yesterday? virginia governor and
without sweat. it was awesome. reporter: she s on the rise in iowa. a new quinnipiac poll today shows her at 51%. up 11 points from a month ago. bernie sanders holding steady at 40%. the democratic field is now down to three. foermer rhode island governor lincoln chafee the latest candidate to drop out. obviously it s a good week for secretary clinton. reporter: and clinton extended a hand to joe biden as she tries to fire up the obama coalition. so i agree with what vice president said the other day in the rose garden, democrats should be proud of that record of achievement. and we should defend it. now, clinton also won the endorsement today from the largest public employee labor union, another step in trying to consolidate that democratic base. and with lincoln chaffee out of the race it s down to three candidates. she also had the best fund raising hour of her entire campaign last night from 9:00 to
