the president penned something in "usa today." i don't know if you made it to the last line. here is what he said in the last line. this debate offers the chance to put our economy on stronger footing, restore a sense of fairness in our country and secure a better future for our children. i want to seize that opportunity and ask americans of both parties and no party to join me in that effort. i'm not accustomed to seeing political leaders, particularly the president, put on the same pedestal independents with rs and ds. that told me something. it told me that he thinks and probably accurately so that's what's going on with this negotiation is going to play very well with independents. what do you think? >> absolutely. that was a very political piece. it was his homage to what's happened over the last couple of weeks that has given him really the kind of lepg up in this debate. in the last 24 hours or so, you've seen sort of a chipping away at that among democrat leadership who are concerned
