Fiorina begins as a relative unknown, and trails far in the polls. In a speech to the Iowa Freedom Summit, a conservative cattle call hosted by Rep. Steve King, Fiorina offered a preview of her anti-Clinton message, which she believes she, as the only other woman in the race, is best equipped to offer. “Like Hillary Clinton, I too have traveled hundreds of thousands of miles around the globe,” she said. “But unlike her, I have actually accomplished something. Mrs. Clinton, flying is an activity not an accomplishment.” The full Clinton excerpt is below: --- > “” --- A Republican strategist [told](http://time.com/3583126/talent-gap-at-the-top/) TIME last year that Fiorina could be a potent weapon for the GOP in the coming cycle. “The most effective way to criticize a woman is to have another woman do it.” ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3681536/carly-fiorina-hillary-clinton/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3681536/carly-fiorina-hillary-clinton/"},"headline":"Here's Why Carly Fiorina Thinks She Can Best Criticize Hillary Clinton","datePublished":"2015-01-24T20:42:45.000Z","dateModified":"2024-01-24T14:54:09.000Z","description":"Former HP CEO Carly Fiorina is positioning herself as the Republican party’s chief critic of Hillary Clinton.","url":"https://time.com/3681536/carly-fiorina-hillary-clinton/","keywords":["2016 Election","Hillary Clinton","2016 Election","Carly Fiorina"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt623f446ec6e7615b/698779e20b72e33ec16dd1f1/460635234.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Zeke Miller","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/zeke-j-miller/"}],"articleSection":"Politics","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt623f446ec6e7615b/698779e20b72e33ec16dd1f1/460635234.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"US-POLITICS-HERITAGE","caption":"US-POLITICS-HERITAGE","creditText":"SAUL LOEB—AFP/Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/politics/","name":"Politics"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"/tag/2016-election/","name":"2016 Election"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/3681536/carly-fiorina-hillary-clinton/","name":"Here's Why Carly Fiorina Thinks She Can Best Criticize Hillary Clinton"}}]}] ```
