greet the trees. and despite the pomp and circumstance and tree trimmings and decoration at the white house and thanksgiving, there s still something going on. president obama is checking the reality check tomorrow. it autos the self-impose the deadline for healthcare.gov. they said it would work for the vast majority of people in america. so it s going to be a saturday on a holiday weekend. will it? will we see a repeat of any of the debacle moments when the site launched last month? jill dougherty working hard at the white house to follow everything that s happening. i almost wondered if this wasn t a blessing for president obama, the thanksgiving turkeys are pardoned and everybody is cat tonic that they may not pay attention to this big deadline tomorrow. what is the white house doing? reporter: some of the
any updates on casualties or injuries to report? reporter: no updates at this point. but unfortunately, don, nobody thinks that that s going to be the last update we have. everybody assumes that the death toll is going to rise. it autos just a hope that it s not going to rise too much. paula is in manila. chad myers is at the cnn severe weather center. paula, make sure you stay save. if you want to help, go to web/impact. year not going far away from this. we re keeping an eye on that. and this as well. just when you think you ve seen enough of toronto mayor rob ford, another video surfaces. and this time he s talking about getting in the ring with mike tyson. we re going to tell you the story next.
