0 offers a morning television trifecta with notable nuggets, but not about the speech. we'll share them. a new york congressman is trying to explain his "grim" proposal to a reporter last nye. plus a severe southern storm forces hundreds of kids to spend the night in school. good morning from washington, january 29, 2014. this is the "the daily rundown." the post-state of the union wednesday. it's a busy day. so let's get to my "first reads." for some, president obama's speech was a symbol of scaled-down ambitions. for others, it was a pragmatic acknowledgement that his legislative agenda ...
