Carly Fiorina is making no secret of her unhappiness with the selection process that threatens to keep her off the main stage of the upcoming Republican debate, airing on CNN Sept. 16. But she’s directing her anger at the Republican National Committee, which didn’t actually set the standards that could keep her out.

Like the Aug. 6 Fox debate, the CNN debate will actually be two sessions: an earlier face off among the lower-ranked candidates, and a primetime debate with the top-ranked candidates. Fiorina was in the early debate on Fox, but her post-debate rise in the polls would appear to put her in the top group for the CNN debate. In the RealClearPolitics average of national polls at the moment, Fiorina is seventh — ahead of Rand Paul, Mike Huckabee and Chris Christie, who all participated in the primetime debate on Fox. So Fiorina would appear to be in.
