Usually, on the East Coast, 60 Minutes is delayed by football.
You might be able to watch it later on CBS.com. Check that out to see if they have 60 Minutes Clips.

For some reason my menu is showing "No Info Available" for that time slot.

I'm checking out the online source now, though it doesn't appear to have aired on the west coast yet. I'm bound to find it one place or the other.

I'm so out of touch. lol.

he could win against the Romney campaign with all the Citizens United funds, IF people came out to vote. They did.

We can't get complacent because we can't lose the Senate. The GOP already announced their plans to gut SS, etc. if they get in and with both houses in their hands, the level of extortion on PBO will exceed that of TARP or what the Koch Tea Party did in 2010 when voters got distracted.

They immediately went on the attack on the Bush tax cuts, had their voting block solidly behind them and then the series of Sequesters came in 2011 that have been ongoing. All over the debt ceiling ploy which may not happen again, but they will all they can elsewise.

Obama has been fighting within enemy territory since he got in office. I hope people do GOTV. He never said he could do this alone.

And lays out the facts so comprehensively. If the media actually reported rather than play the politics game, imagine how much better things would be.

Steve Kroft mockingly: "Do you think you can hold the Senate?"

President Obama pauses then smiles: "Yes. I do."

Kroft goes silent.
