That seems to be keeping in with republicans thinking we might dodge a bullet in the fall and hang on the house, hang on to the senate. what do you think? >> certainly that is the foundation of republicans argument in the mid-terms. that they were able to get the economy going again with these tax cuts. certainly lots of evidence that wages are going up and the broader numbers are moving in an upward direction. that can also cause as weve seen in week, overheating of the markets. thats propmatic...

>> sandra: marie, how did you feel about that moment and the presidents reaction to it? >> i think the president calling dissent treason like he did yesterday is really offensive and over the line. im not sure the president has ever watched a state of the union. this is always what happens. the party who is not in the presidency doesnt tend to stand and clap. we had a republican congressman yell you lie at barack obama. i think the state of the union is interesting for those of us who maybe watc...
