nearly three years ago. occupy wall street protesters were met by police. clashes break out, arrests were made. on this "american morning." good morning to you. it is thursday, october 27. welcome to "american morning" an incredibly busy morning. >> it sure is we start with europe. investors across the globe, news they've been waiting for. europe striking a deal to address its long-running debt crisis. this agreement made overnight after a marathon 11 hours of talks. that has sparked a major rally in europe and asia. u.s. stock futures are also significantly higher. we begin coverage this morning in brussels, belgium. >> after 11 hours of fraught negotiations, eu leaders did finally manage to come up with what they call a lasting and incredible agreement to solve the eurozone debt crisis once and for all. here it is. in the 15-page draft communique that was wrapped up soon after talks, they aim to solve problems. these leaders decided to boost the eurozone firepower or esff, by no less than four fold or maybe even five fold to reinforce the problem of greece and to prevent italy and spain from being infected by the same issues. another particularly sticky point of constitution that took hours of negotiating was the issue of agreeing to a haircut or writedown with private bondholders that owned greek debt. they managed to push through proposals for a voluntary 50% haircut with those investors and last but not least, the banks have had people worried for quite so long, seem to be the last of these ministers' problems. they managed to push through early in the negotiations to recapitalize the european banks to the tune of 106 billion euros. will it be enough? and how long will it take to put into place. nina dos santos, cnn, brussels. >> let's take a closer look at this deal. let's talk about what it's really meant to do, what it solves. not only at least for now some of the greek debt crisis, it solves the instability of euro banks and european bailout fund. what is it in deal specifically? private holders, meaning nongovernment holders of greek bonds are taking as nina said, a 50% haircut. 50% of value of the investment is dropping what that does for greek debt. it drops gdp -- debt to gdp ratio from 50% to 120%. that is big, by the way, but a lot more manageable. a big $100 billion monetary fund of money. this boosts the impact of the existing eu bailout fund. what's important in this deal? it creates new ways for others to invest in the eu and china which has lots of money, could be a major investor. european banks need to increase their core capital. the safe amount of capital they have to 9%. here is the danger, though. in the long run, this deal may not be enough. we're still waiting to see what the reaction is as investors in the west start to wake up to this and study it and see whether it's enough. some say it may not be enough. >> when you talk about core capital. the amount of money they have to have that is safe. the money in their bank that they can't be lending out 10 times, 11 times, 12 times, the big, overleveraging that gets banks in trouble. that starts to cause concerns about how much the economy can grow if banks are holding so much cash. >> the amount of core capital the bank has to lend, minimum they have to have is 9%. the average person thinks banks have a lot more cash on hand than -- >> yes, they do. absolutely do. early numbers, futures are looking good this morning. >> that's encouraging are. >> exactly. now on to politics. the republican battle for the white house. brand new poll numbers on four key early states. in a race where we know momentum could mean everything. mitt romney is blowing out the field in two of them. and herman cain is right there with him in the other two. cnn deputy political director paul stein haushauser is live i washington. >> we talk a lot about national polls. there is no national primary. that's why state polls are so important. these are the first four states in the battle for nomination. it is a battle for states and delegates. you can see in florida. we'll start in florida. florida has become a power player. remember it will have its primary on january 31st. mitt romney, a 12-point lead over herman cain. one reason? he's doing really well with those at or near retirement age in florida. and they are a really big factor in the sunshine state. in new hampshire, you could say home field advantage for romney. why? they know him really well in that state. governor of neighboring massachusetts and a lot of southern new hampshire. he has a home in new hampshire. spent a lot of time out there the past few years. he leads among all of the subsets and we're talking about tea party supporters and even christian conservatives, carol. >> herman cain, let's talk about him a little bit. much closer in a couple of other key states. tell us about that. >> let's start with iowa. iowa will have its caucus on january 3rd. they lead the calendar. let's take a look at the cnn timeline. when you break this down, what's happening in iowa, romney gets most of that establishment and moderate republican vote. cain, ron paul, and all of the rest seem to be dividing up the tea party vote and social conservative vote in iowa which is pretty important. south carolina, first southern state to vote. they will have their primary on january 1st. romney and cain knotted up at the top. and romney getting more of the establishment vote and the others spl others splitting the social conservative vote. it's only october and a lot of people are still undecided. only a quarter have definitely made their mind up, sticking with their candidate. things could change between now and the middle of january. >> you got that. thank you. rick perry was right up there with mitt romney in the polls until the debates began. now perry is thinking about skipping some of the remaining debates. per ooh camp saying he might rather spend time with the voters. >> we certainly respect the process, but when you have eight or nine candidates and 30 seconds to a minute, it takes valuable time away from campaigning in iowa, as those elections approach. >> do i take that as he's not -- are you saying he's going to look over the calendar and scratch some of them out? >> there are 18 more in the planning phase. no way that the candidates can do all of those debates. >> perry says taking part in the debates was a mistake. analysts called his performance anything from instead to a flat out disaster. anywhere from a dozen to 18 more gop debates in the works right now. can you imagine, 18 more debates? >> i don't think it's fair to call anybody up there a disaster. we were at the last debate in las vegas. to get up there and, you know. >> carol says disaster. >> not in the last one, because he did better. but he got into an argument with mitt romney. and that diminished him even more, because he came off as petty. so maybe it's a good idea for rick perry not to participate in in 19 mo 918 more debates. but by like number 15, key be good. >> lot of experts say this crowd will thin out by february. >> you think about how much heat around him before he was declared. when everyone wanted him in, and he gets in, and now at 9%. >> what if he hadn't participated in debates until later? his campaign people knew debating wasn't his thing. what if he met with smaller groups of voters and talked to him one-on-one which he's very good at and then practiced and participated in later debates? >> maybe he's going to try that out. >> we'll see. hundreds of wall street protesters took to the streets overnight to show support for the occupy oakland movement. as you can see, a number of clashes broke out after protesters started walking in the street, something pro police have problems with. ten people taken away for disorderly conduct. in oakland itself, occupy protesters held a vigil for scott olson, a two-time iraq war veteran, whose skull was allegedly broken in a clash between police wednesday night. a stunning revelation from ruth madoff, wife of bernard madoff in an interview with "60 minutes," madoff says the burden of her husband's crimes was so heavy they attempted suicide. >> i don't know whose idea it was, but we decided to kill ourselves, because it was so horrendous, what was happening. we had terrible phone calls, hate mail. just beyond anything. and i said i can't -- i just can't go on anymore. >> ruth madoff says they tried to overdose on pills, but they woke up the next day. her husband now serving a life sentence after his conviction of serving billions of dollars in the largest ponzi scheme in history. testimony at the manslaughter trial of michael jackson's doctor, conrad murray, drawing to a close. the defense will call its final two witnesses. scientific experts say they hope will convince jurors that jackson gave himself the drug overdose that killed him in court yesterday, five character witnesses said dr. murray saved their lives. their testimonials brought murray to tears at one point. they described him as a gentle, caring doctor. not the inept opportunist that the prosecution has portrayed. >> that man sitting there is the best doctor i've ever seen. >> i have never had a doctor more caring, never, and dr. murray is a very caring doctor. he is a very thorough doctor. >> i've known him, know him, know his love, compassion, feelings, for his patients. you can ask every one of them and they will say exactly the same thing. he's the most -- he's the best doctor i've ever been to. >> i've gone to a lot of doctors. a lot of doctors. and i've never had one who gave me the care that he did. >> the jury in the michael jackson death trial could get the case early next week. amanda knox's former italian boyfriend says she and knox have been speaking or writing each other every day since they were acquitted of murdering meredith kerchner earlier this month. rafael sollecito plans to visit knox at her home in washington. while they are not together as a couple, he can't wait to see amanda again and talk to her about the experience that nearly crushed them. champagne still on ice for the texas rangers who lead 3-2 over the st. louis cardinals. game six in st. louis was rained out. rangers and cards will try again tonight with texas. one win away from the first world series win. if the cards win a seventh and deciding game will be played on friday, unless it rains. the next generation of american drones could operate under war. barba sta a starr tells us ab. and hurricane rina has cancun bracing. and president obama's memoir required reading?

>> you have to fit in, the arab world has very unique circumstances. almost every one of these countries have been living under dictatorships for decades. brutal dictatorships. where if you step out of line, you will be arrested, tortured, possibly executed in a dark room. they realized they needed a long time to organize an effective uprising against the regimes. and that's what happened in egypt. it happened very suddenly, this january, but behind the scenes, behind closed doors, they were working and organizing and making contacts. i think what we're seeing here in occupy wall street is a genuine manifestation of unhappiness with the political and economic system. but it's more spontaneous. clear that even though there is a core of people who are dedicated and well organized, it's attracted a motley group of people that don't know where it's going. >> the egyptian flag flying, beneath the american flag in zukati park in lower manhattan. many of the organizers, if you can call them organizers, they say they are not organized, say they modeled themselves after the arab spring. one of the organizers in egypt, i want to listen to what he said quickly. >> they need more communication and more clear, united goals, united demands, and a plan on how to reach more people. >> they say the point is they are not going to have a list of demands, they are against the status quo. will they get more organized? do they need to get more organized? will that make them more effective? >> should they get more organized? that's definitely the case. will it happen? it's a beginning. and accident melthmed maher saie first step of the first step them have a long way to go. he was a bit baffled by the whole thing. he, like i, was surprised by how small it is. when they took over the square in egypt, we are talking about tens of thousands of people paralyzing a city of 18 million. i was down there, i walked one block, and you wouldn't know anything was going on. >> we have pictures of you in benghazi that i find very moving. all of the people in the streets. i mean, look at you on this rooftop and the people behind you, can you compare that with occupy wall street, what they want, what they are fighting against, and i guess the emotional image of that? >> i mean, you have to realize, 42 years of this dictatorship and essenticertainly the first s in libya it was incredible, mind blowing. people would come up and say how much they hated gadhafi, how much they wanted basic rights, freedom and dignity. not really a comparison with the united states, where life is relatively good. >> losing its status. >> losing its edge, but it's apples and oranges. the situation in libya was completely different. >> when you went to occupy wall street, did you feel the -- and we've noticed the people who are there really feel like they will change something. >> of course you feel the passion. you have to be passionate to sleep out there night after night. it seems to be attracting a lot of other people who aren't really part of the occupy wall street movement. activist s for tibet, and when you have a small group like that, it's diluted by all of the other people that have latched on to the movement. >> when you look at libya i want to end, such an expert of what is happening there, so monumental, do you see this national transitional council moving forward in this country having the hope it hasn't had for four decades? are you hopeful for the future for libya here? >> i'm hopeful for the long term. in the short term, it's going to be messy. if you look at every system, every country, where you have had a long dictatorship, followed by the end of it, like yugoslavia, like iraq, there is going to be a period of uncertainty, chaos perhaps. but libya has a lot going for it, it has a small population, wonderful real estate on the mediterranean. >> natural resources, unbelievable. >> most oil resources in africa are relatively well educated population. so i just think they need to get their political house in order. there are a lot of problems between the islamists and the secularists. the military and the political, but in the long term, i think libya will find its way. >> if journalism is a rough draft of history it will be quite interesting to see what the history books say about people, and people rising up here, there, all over the country, all over the world in 2011. ben wedeman, on the front lines for all of it. thanks, been. carol. still ahead on "american morning," a drunken, topless 128-mile-per-hour car chase. i don't think i can go on. >> say it! >> in a g-string. now, tell me you're not sticking around for that one. >> that's way more interesting what i'm about to tease. herman cain's new ad featuring his chief of staff smoking on camera it was right in letterman, conan and leno's wheel house. you'll want to hear what they have to say. it's pretty funny. 46 minutes past the hour scott olson is it at again, the inventor of roller blades has a new way to move people around. this is skyride. a human powered elevated monorail. >> my ideas have all been pretty much moving with the roller blades, and the row bike, the skyride. >> reporter: skyride's capsules hang from a track and can travel up to 30 miles per hour, no gas required. it gets its power from you. two versions, one where you row, and one you pedal. >> the important part of the development has been the actual drive system. what allows people to propel themselves along the track, smoothly, quickly, efficiently safely. so we can adapt it to different people's needs. >> reporter: they expect skyrides at ski resorts in the future and they eventually see it as a replacement for cars and buss in cities. brooke baldwin, cnn, atlanta. 49 minutes after the hour. here is what you need to know to start your day. new cnn/time poll shows mitt romney on top. double digits leads in new hampshire and florida. herman cain within striking distance in south carolina and iowa. in a new interview, ruth madoff says she and her husband were so distraught after his ponzi scheme arrest in 2008, they tried to commit suicide on christmas eve of that year. two more survivors pulled from the rubble, the death toll now stands at 471, with more than 1,600 injured. heavy monsoonal rains triggered the worst flooding in more than half a century in thailand. the government plans to open evacuation centers in eight provinces. thousands forced to leave the city. more than 370 people have been killed since july. occupy wall street protests getting out of hand last night in the streets of manhattan. police arresting at least ten people. they were marching to show their support for an iraq war veteran who was hurt when police forced them out of encampments with teargas. cardinals versus texas rangers. first series washout since 2008 in philadelphia. that's the news you need to start your day.

mexico the storm not packing the punch it once had. a category 1 hurricane. but on mention mexico's yucatan peninsula, they are bracing for an intense storm surge. what's happening right now, rafael? >> reporter: well, we have had periods of torrential rain overnight. it stopped right now, right now just a light rain and winds have started to pick up. one thing i can tell you is that two strategic locations in this part of the yucatan peninsula and mexico have been evacuated, about 2,800 people who were evacuated from the islands of hobosh. and 2,800 people, 200 were tourists. speaking of tourists, there was chaos last night and all of yesterday at the international airport here in cancun, when thousands, upon thousands, of domestic and international tourists, many of them were american, were frantically trying to get a flight out of cancun. they didn't really listen to the warning from authorities saying if you didn't have a flight already reserved, there was no way you were going to get one, so it was a very chaotic situation at the airport. we also understood that the mexican government has deployed about 1,800 troops to this part of mexico the main concern now seems to be torrential rain. not so much the winds as they were talking about a couple of days ago, christine. >> rafael romo, thank you so much. we watch the satellite pictures. a real punch for some of the people there. thank you so much. let's go to reynolds wolf to tell us what's going on with this and everything else. >> good morning. rina pulling itself to the north, doing itself near 75 miles per hour, maximum susta sustained winds. not expected to strengthen. in fact, the latest forecast from the national you are hurricane center has it weakening once it gets closer to cancun.

central plains, a lot of cold air funneling down from the north. that will be felt not only this morning, but possibly for days to come. morning low temperatures in the 20s and 30s for portions of the central plains, and the wind will make it feel even colder with wind gusts topping 30 miles per hour. that is for thursday and friday. a great deal of the cold air will pull its way to the northeast as we go into friday morning. saturday, morning lows 20s and 30s for the eastern great lakes to spots like philadelphia, new york. you should escape those freezing conditions. to the north of you, you will certainly have that. boston, you will have a bit of that. same deal for burlington and the nation's capital. we fast forward into tonight's game again. 8:06. talking you about cold weather.

of times during the series of character witnesses, all patients of his, five in all that got up on the stand and said dr. murray was a great doctor. >> i know him. i know his love, compassion, his feelings. for his patients. he's the best doctor i've ever been to, because of the treatment, because of the clarity of what he's doing. and the followups. and i just don't think he did what he's being accused muof. >> reporter: the defense is using these witness forces two reasons. one to build up the doctor, and to dissuade the jury that he's a greedy doctor. specifically, they had him talk about murray's practice in an underserved area of houston, texas. >> if this man had been greedy, he never would have come to an area, a community. 75% poor, on welfare and social security. >> the main witness, though, for the defense is coming up later today. dr. paul white. is he their anesthesiologist and propofol expert. he will have a lot of pressure to convince the jury that it wasn't dr. conrad murray that michael jackson accidentally killed himself. >> thank you. moammar gadhafi is gone. libya would like to see nato's no-fly zone lifted by this month. before a final decision is made,

democrats oppose cuts in benefits, and republicans oppose tax increases. >> all of the commissions that have looked at this problem have come to the conclusion you can't do it by spending cuts alone, you can't do it by revenue increases alone. >> reporter: add to that, the fact that experts michael is rivland, a former white house budget director, if they meet the required savings, it may not be enough to fix the country's debt problems. >> if you stick with the 1.2 trillion over ten years, it sounds like a big number, but it doesn't actually stabilize the debt. >> to fix the problem, we need $ 4 trillion to $6 trillion debt reduction. >> reporter: the committee could reach agreement on 1.2 trillion on savings or more, a partial agreeme agreement, where some of the required trigger or across the board cuts would set in. they could also possibly reach some sort of a two-step process, including some cuts and then also an outline for future deficit savings, leaving the details for the relevant congressional committees to handle later. they, again, have only four weeks left. kate bolduan, cnn, capitol hill. >> all right. hundreds of wall street protesters took to the streets overnight to show support for the occupy oakland movement. as you can see, a number of clashes broke out after some of the protesters started walking in the street, blocking traffic, and ignoring police orders to stay on the sidewalk. in all, ten people were taken away for disorderly conduct. we are joined now from our affiliate, wpix in new york. clearly tensions rising from the police and protesters. >> reporter: absolutely. what happened last night all of the protesters and we're hearing more than 400 actually, were in the streets, marching up in lower manhattan into greenwich village and soho, which is quite a bit from here. when they met with cops it was chaos. to say the word chaos is one thing, but i want to play video that was tweeted to me by one of our viewers. let me play it for up to hear the word chaos is one thing, but to hear chaos is another. listen to this. this is from someone who was right there in the crowd. and that's why twitter is so valuable. we get to see these images and hear this. chaos is out in the streets right there. but i want to tell you a little more. we were there as well. not as close as this. police were keeping the press back, but listen to our video and let's take a look at that at this point. i want to show you that. the situation, they were out there, supporting the people in oakland. and huge, huge clashes occurred. basically, the goal was to show solidarity. fellow protesters kicked out of encampments in oakland and atlanta. result was chaos and arrests. one of the protesters left to go to city hall. the crowd tried to change their route. they quickly met a police barricade and that's when the clash began. some tried to call off the march. some walked in the streets, as far as soho and greenich village. by 11:00 last night, things back to normal. this morning, things pretty quiet out here, people are resting, just sleeping, hanging out in tents. seems like it's all back to normal for now. now we're hearing there are problems here within the parking because some people think there are free loaders coming in and taking all of the wonderful food that's been donated. organic chicken and other things, so we'll have to wait and see what will happen with that. >> all right. the drama continues. thank you so much. in oakland, california, occupy protesters held a vigil for scott olson, a two-time iraq war veteran seriously injured during a clash with police on tuesday. protesters say scott olson suffered a skull fracture when he was hit by a projectile filed by police this is a youtube video of scott from that night. a police investigation -- >> what's your name, what's your name? >> he can't answer. they carried him off the streets and he's in the hospital today. all of this puts police in a tough position, i must say. there is criticism on both sides of the aisle from police and protesters. if you're a police officer and people are sort of egging you on in a way, because they want to be arrested, they want to post these arrest videos on youtube and the internet, what do you do? you know? an investigation going on in oakland about this specific incide incident. >> in new york, it's very clear mayor bloomberg is being very careful on how he's treating the next step. letting people stay in zucati park. people don't want someone to get hurt. >> interesting you bring that up. in contrast, oakland police wanted those people to clear out, because protesters were gathered in front of oakland city hall and impeding traffic into the building. police made the decision to clear them out. here in new york, they let them stay. it's getting interesting. still to come this morning, when politicians attack. italian lawmakers not exactly following parliamentary procedure. 26 minutes this morning. minding your business. markets on track to open shar y ly higher. dow futures up 200 points, all because european leaders reached a deal to deal with the debt crisis. that agreement coming after a marathon 11 hours of talks. the plan involves three parts. private investors holding greek debt will take a 50% loss, which will reduce greece's debt. it shores up the region's banks and creates a stronger bailout fund. whoever in the united states, we're standing by for a report on the number of jobless claims filed last week, that report along with the first estimate on how much the economy grew in the third quarter will be released next hour. some of the big banks are now reportedly getting intelligence on foreign hackers from one of the nation's top spy agencies. according to reuter's, the national security agency is providing banks information to help them fend off cyber attacks. calls to the nsa have not been returned this morning. the makers of blackberry is being hit with a lawsuit after the four-day outage. it accuses research in motion of breach of contract, and unjust enrichment. no comment from blackberry's maker. next week, google's youtube is expected to announce a major overhaul. the site will announce its creating channels around topics like sports and arts. those channels will feature hours of original and professionally produced programming. don't forget, for the latest news about your money, check out the all new cnnmoney.com.

>> they are investigating my press credentials. the gallery is made up of a bunch of reasonable people. the only protocol that i violated is asking a question that the others failed to ask about the rape reference. the vice president's office actually complained to the wrong gallery. they flubbed their outrage as well. >> let's go back to the initial criticism of the way you went up to the vice president. you -- you clearly misrepresented yourself. you didn't introduce yourself, you didn't say you were from any organization. you actually asked the voice president f vice president for a picture and then launched into that. you didn't say i'm jason materra with human events, i have a question for you. you came across as a tourist and not a reporter, and a lot of journalists say that's a big no-no. >> well, i -- it's funny to hear some journalists, and i think most of them are on my side, howard kurtz on the program yesterday morning, cnn, saying it's a fair question. >> no, howard kurtz said it was a fair question, but the way you approached the vice president wasn't totally cool. >> it's a public place. i was wearing my media credentials. enough for other members of the press to see it. what's interesting, all of this attention focused on the tactic. in fact, i wish there was this much attention focused on me as there was on vice president and his ludicrous claim that has been debunked that rape is surging across the country. in fact, we only know that the vice president was lying and misleading the american people to get this jobs bill passed, only because of my exchange. then the media started to take notice, so i wish they would direct their ire and outrage to wh where it's deserved. to the vice president using a despicable rape reference. >> he did use wrong numbers, but hes given them by the local police. >> i don't think so on that end. you had "the washington post" factcheck.org were able to get the right numbers, and the voice president who has an army of researchers can't get the right numbers? he wished his republican colleagues wished that they themselves knew what it was like to be rape victims. >> you do have a point. let's get back to the original discussion. you have a reputation for ambushing politicians. we have video of you ambushing bernie sanders in may. the senator was signing a book on corporate greed, and you asked him to sign it to capitalism. you found it ironic actually that he's selling this book when he called himself a socialist, i get that. but i'm curious, what did you get that out of that exchange? besides an awkward moment. >> it's fun to show the hypocrisy of a self-described socialist, out selling a book for profit at a corporation. many of the corporations that the left wingers like to treat as boogiemen. i did it once i was leaving work. let's not forget, the nature of ambush interviews is nothing new. in fact, mike wallace won emmys and peabodies for targeting private citizens using undercover cameras. heck, abc news to this day uses actors and manufactures scenarios to prove some type of journalistic point. i'm going after a politician using my media credentials in a public place. it's a little -- it's selectively outraged. >> you told john king, are you looking to go after politicians that are used to spin and protected by teams. i get that. here is a sampling of some of your questions, this is from human events. some of our questions put to republicans. let's look. >> senator santorum, did barack obama provide the american people a bait and switch campaign about bringing historic levels of accountability and transparency to government? mr. speaker, we're celebrating the centennial of the american people what would the gipper say to the american people? is this just another con job? >> are you tough with joe biden. why not be tougher with republican candidates, even though you work for a conservative website. >> i'm an unapologetic conservative. a world view that i'm looking to advance conservative ideas and expose liberal lies. we are tough on republicans when we need to be. >> the same way you are tough on joe biden and bernie sanders? >> no, i don't think the republicans you just show ready ruining the country. i do think joe biden, bernie sanders and other liberals are very destructive to this country and i'm going to do everything in my power as a conservative journalist to bring awareness and attention and i've been successful doing so. >> that's where got you journalism fails i think. we want frtruth from both sidesf the aisle. when it behoove your readerston the truth from both sides? >> it's a conservative first. it's not chilling to any particular party. the exchange with joe biden was impromptu. i took the opportunity afforded to me. the media, though, has a bias and a presupposition. they hide it well. it's a veneer. >> i know, i know. >> this is my world view, this is my standard, and i'm going to ask questions that comport with my world vow. but at least i'm up front about it. >> you are up front about it, that is true. jason mattera, thank you for joining us. >> thank you very much. >> you knew that was going to come up, didn't you? >> i think that the discussion here is he a journalist, or a partisan? >> and advocacy journalism. some people like to say it's advocacy journalism, where you wear your affiliations on your sleeve. >> only going around and targeting people to make them look silly or provide got you moments. how much can people really learn from that? when are you selectively using parts of things that you have done with politicians. >> if your audience only wants one kind of news, then that's what they want. they just want that. >> to me, i think the audience wants a lot of information. and they want the truth from both sides of the aisle so they can make a decision when they go into that voting booth. >> that's why we're here, we think you want lots of information. still to come, information on something else. measles making a comeback?

private holders, meaning nongovernment holders of greek bonds will take a 50% hair cut. they're giving up 50% of the value of their bonds. debt was 150% is now 120%. that's still serious, but it's a lot better. and a new $100 billion international monetary fund that has been set up. fund fund. this also boosts the impact of the existing eu bailout fund. it has some mechanisms that make it easier for others to invest in the eu. that's the important part. it creates new ways to invest in the eu, china, a country that has a lot of money will be one of the countries that might actually be a major investor. one of the other things it does, it makes european banks increase their core capital. that's capital that is easily traded. it's money or things that are like cash to a minimum of 9%. i bet a lot of people think banks have a lot more than that in core capital. in the long run, some critics who say this deal may not be enough. as you just said, markets right now reacting very, very positively. >> we have to get this behind us. this concern about america's largest trading zone partner is the euro zone. you know, if they plunge into recession, it will be very bad for the u.s. now, hundreds of wall street protesters took the streets overnight to show their support for the occupy wall street. a number of clashes broke out after some of the "occupy wall street" protesters started blocking traffic and ignoring police orders that they had to stay on the sidewalk. in all, ten people were taken away for disorderly conduct. >> the occupy movement now spreading to pakistan. around 75 people came together yesterday for an "occupy islam bad" rally. what they call an unfair capitale capitalist world. stunning conviction from ruth madoff. she tells cbs "60 minutes" that on christmas eve 2008, just weeks after this whole thing came apart, just after madoff admitted to the biggest ponzi scheme in history, the couple decided to kill themselves. >> i don't know whose idea it was. but we decided to kill ourselves because it was, it was so horrendous what was happening. we had terrible phone calls, hate mail. just beyond anything. and i said i can't, i just can't go on any more. that's when i packed up some things to send to my sons and my grandchildren. i had some lovely antique things and things that i thought they might want. i mailed them, it was christmas eve. added to the whole depression. we took pills and woke up the next day. >> what did you take? >> i think ambien. >> how many? >> i don't even remember. i had, i took what we had. he took more. >> did you leave notes? >> no. it was very impulsive and i'm glad we woke up. >> first time ruth madoff has spoken publicly since her husband's arrest. bernie madoff is now serving a life sentence. >> one of her sons did kill himself, leaving his children and his wife behind. but the pressure was just too much. >> what was interesting there is how she said the pressure was too much, it wasn't, it wasn't the fact that bernie madoff had swindled everybody. >> it was because -- >> the hate mail and the backla backlash. >> december 11, 2008. things really got hot in the weeks and months ahead and became clear how people were so destroyed by this. with less than three months before voting begins for the republican presidential nomination. mitt romney has got to be feeling pretty good about his chances after seeing these brand-new poll numbers. new orc polls showing romney out in front. double-digit lead in florida and lapping all of his opponents in new hampshire, but in iowa and south carolina, herman cain, herman cain is running a close second to mitt romney. >> rick perry on the other hand is now in single digits. 4% in new hampshire and after a series of stumbles, he is now thinking about passing on some of the remaining debates. the perry camp saying he would rather spend more time face-to-face with voters anywhere from a dozen to 18 more gop debates in the works right now. that's a lot of nights up watching gop debates. while republicans are battling to find a nominee, president obama is reframing his fight against him from yes, we can to, we can't wait. here's jessica yellin. >> reporter: have you picked up on the president's new message. >> we can't wait for an increasingly dysfunctional congress to do its job. we can't wait for congress to do its job. >> we can't afford to keep waiting for them if they're not going to do anything. >> reporter: yes, he's running against congress, but there's something else. notice a new message discipline. he was famous for it in 2008. >> yes, we can. yes, we can. >> reporter: now it's back. >> pass this bill. we need to pass this bill. pass this jobs bill. >> reporter: it began with his push for the jobs plan. >> one thing that sometimes hasn't occurred in the past in this administration is the president saying the same thing over and over and over again, repetition matters in politics. >> presidents need to lay out their vision, that's an important part of what the president's doing right now. >> reporter: for democrats, it's all about drawing a contrast with republican plans for the future. >> he seems to have made the turn strategically and say, wait a minute, i have to talk about the future. what are we going to do tomorrow? >> reporter: this republican thinks it's already too late. >> the fundamental problem for the president's message is that three quarters of the country believes we're off on the wrong track. and, so, they pretty well closed their ears to the president's message. president obama's message is not resonating with most americans. >> reporter: according to the latest gallup tracking poll, 71% of americans believe economic conditions are getting worse and 15% disapprove of the job the president's doing. those are tough numbers for an incumbent president to overcome. jessica yellin, cnn, washington. all right, the white house now defending the state departme department's decision to buy more than $70,000 of president obama's books saying embassies provide them to help advance u.s. foreign policy. the white house saying the decision was made by individual embassies around the world and that washington had nothing to do with it.

>> we all grew up in a world that we imagined had power concentrated in the capitals of countries that now we're moving into an era where power is seeping away from traditional centers like that to new groups. whether it's network individuals like al qaeda or powerful nongovernmental organizations like the gates foundation. power is locating else where in the world from capitals. so, what clinton is responding to with the notion of smart power is coming up with ways of influencing these other areas of power. so, smart power is rather than the military hard power, it would speak directly to another country's capital. something like using technology to reach out to women everywhere around the world. >> and speaking of technology, you suggest hillary clinton is somewhat obsessed by social media and, you know, i guess we always wondered how some of these amazing images are making it online so quickly perhaps it's because maybe the state department has provided these people with what you say is top secret training and equipment. >> that's right. clinton as one of her technology initiatives has boosted funding for training of dissidents and surveillance of aiding software for them from $15 million to $45 million. state claims that in syria, which is sort of the next focus of the arab spring where there's been an ongoing revolution. one reason why that uprising has been able to continue despite the suppression from the regime is because state claims they gave them some of the surveillance abating software back in 2009 that the dissidents are using to communicate and to transmit images of their uprising. >> so, hillary clinton has perhaps proved to be a successful secretary of state because she embraced this new way of dealing with other countries and she's also adepth, you say, at the old-fashioned kind. >> that's right. when you talk to foreign policy traditionale aa traditionalists, they focus as much, if not more, on her traditional diplomacy. she started relations in russia in a way that they say allowed her to get their support, not just for, for example the libya invasion, but also for sanctions against iran and then she's also done some things to constrain china's expansion in asia in ways that centrists and tradition a traditionalists tend to support. >> she remains this popular figure, at least among many democrats. we always see her, maybe hillary clinton should run for president and maybe she should be president obama's vice president. is there any chance that either of those things could happen? >> her closest aides say, absolutely not in 2012. they, they say they doubt it in 2016. she will be, she would be 69, she will be 69 at the time of the vote in 2016. so, they see her moving on to other things. moving out of public service. her numbers, though, are very high. she pulls at the moment 12 to 14 points ahead of obama, versus romney or perry. >> let's put up that poll. if she were running for president and running against mitt romney, she would be 17 points up on romney and president obama is now 3 points up and on herman cain she would be 22 points above herman cain and president obama 12 points above. rick perry 26, as opposed to obama's 12. so, i know she's saying, no, no, no, but we often heard politicians change their minds, especially when they see polls like that. >> yeah, that's right. when a politician looks at numbers like that, awfully hard to walk away. she's not giving any indication of breaking ranks and there's no sign, also from people i speak to in the white house. so, i think it's highly unlikely for 2012 short of some dramatic turn around that nobody's forecast that she would enter into it. i think you also have to think about those numbers in the larger picture. she hasn't had to be involved in the domestic policy issues that are the area of greatest discontentdisco discontent. people are satisfied with foreign policy at the moment given the death of osama bin laden and so forth. she's in an area that is protected from some of the fwhegatifwheg ati negatives at the moment. >> thank you for joining us. >> my pleasure, thanks for having me. just in this morning. the first estimate of the third quarter gdp on how strong the economy was in the third quarter. 2.5%. exactly what economists are expecting, but nearly doubled the second quarter rate. the economy is the strongest it's been in a year. >> this means the economy in the third three months of this year grew twice as fast as it did in the second three months. so, this is -- >> pick up a little bit. >> 2.5% is not a terrible number, compare it to china which is -- >> 9.1%. >> which is way up there. but it's better than nothing. better than very low. europe is near nothing. >> it shows some improvement. but 2.5% is not enough to create significant jobs. however, it shows you that you have an economy that is picking up a little bit of steam here and you hope that eventually that could help. >> we are all so used to getting these numbers that are worse than we thought they were going to be and we've been sucker punched on unemployment numbers and growth numbers. to have something kind of where you thought it was. >> always a big number that comes out on thursdays on jobless claims. 402,000 people filing for unemployment for the first time that week, that's down a couple thousand. >> but it's in that range. 400,000 a week is a big, bad number to be looking at. so, bottom line, nothing is worse than we went into this morning think it was. europe's got a deal and markets are looking up and this information has helped markets stay up. we might be looking at a strong day on the markets. >> i hope so because when they told me the gdp numbers are coming out, i hope it's not bad news. >> it's not bad news and we go on with our day. thinking it's all right. >> maybe not all all right, but at least a little better. do you get a flu shot every year? >> i do. >> i get them. do you work out regularly? >> yes. >> no. do you watch what your eat? >> why is this my responsibility? >> i watch it and saver every minute of it. >> well, look, what we're talking about here is the secret to a long and healthy life. is it what you do or who you are? why do some people live long, healthy lives regardless of how well they live? well, scientists are on the case, they are looking for the fountain of youth and how they're doing it is actually fascinating. we'll talk about it on the other side. it's 39 minutes after the hour. [ man ] i got this citi thank you card and started earning loads of points. you got a weather balloon with points? yes, i did.

(laughing) yeah. get $100 rebate when you buy four tires. 100 bucks! only at your ford dealer. 3 million tires. 11 major brands, fiona's kind-of-nice. i don't know why you're not here. welcome back to "american morning." ever wonder why some people can eat fatty foods and smoke cigarettes and still live long, healthy lives while others exercise regularly and they eat healthy and die young. our next guest would also like an answer to that question. bob weiss, his organization is offering $10 million to the scientist or team who can sequence the genomes of 100 healthy 100-year-old people or older and find out what it takes to become one. what are you trying to figure out here? >> we're trying to figure out the secret to healthy life. each of us has a map, if you will, that really tells the tale about how we interact with our environment and what diseases we might get and how we would react to different kinds of therapies and we're looking into that secret. >> now, the x-prize foundation you offer basically a prize. you say, here is the standard we want to meet and if you can exceed that, the person that exceeds it or the team that exceeds it the best gelts this prize. the idea that you're incentvising this competition. what are you trying to beat? what standards do these people who enter this have to meet? >> sequencing the human genome. it's a map of our dna. dna is in every one of our cells. every one of us walks around with it. so, we're trying to decode the sequence. there are 3 billion pair of chemicals that make up our dna and that has never been sequenced to the completeness, accuracy or with the speed that we're asking. and the reason we're asking that is because we want to be able to get large sets of data. >> we've all heard that the human map has been sequenced. are we looking for a better way to do it, a cheaper way to do it, a faster way to do it? >> a more complete way to do it and we're looking for a less expensive way to do it. >> what's the implication? what happens if you achieve that? will more people be able to get their dna sequence. will we be able to have dna faster? >> that's the next revolution. god forbid you get a cancer, even though that's the result of your individual genetics, you're being treated the same pretty much as everyone who has that cancer. imagine if we have this map, we can treat you for exactly the type of disease you have. in fact, we can derive preventative therapies so that you don't get sick. of course, preventive medicine is much less expensive than treating the disease itself. >> you needed a control group. one group of people to aim at and target. what's the point here? you're trying to find healthy people who lived longer than 100 years, why? >> because these folks that have lived over 100 years or more have figured out or their bodies have figured out how to survive disease. not that they've never been sick, but they figured out how to beat it. in sequencing what is essentially 10,000 years of life, we're looking for the wellness genes, if you will. what is the secret these folks have that we can learn from to help the rest of us. this is not just about elderly people becoming healthy but a secret to help people of all ages. >> we talked to george everheart who is 107 years old and it's not like george has been healthy all his life. he survived cancer twice. here's what he told us about his secret to longevity. >> i've been reading books about longevity and seeing how i could increase in it my age. one of my doctors said the thing that contributed to my age is humor. my wife's objective is, i should eat five meals a day. and i agree with that. if i know ahead of time that there's going to be some really good food. >> george, does george and his behavior and his humor and his five meals a day have something to do with how old he is? >> i think it certainly contributes to his health, his lifestyle, but i'm sure it's important to eat your vegetables to keep your mind active, but really about your genes and your parents' genes and we're trying to unlock that secret. >> when do you think you'll have results to this? >> we'll have results in the first part of 2013. the head-to-head part of this competition. the x-prize presented and the playoffs, if you will, are from january to february 2013 and that's when we'll find out who can do this the best way, the most accurate and fastest way. >> it's going to open up an entire world to treatment and help a lot of people. robert weiss and vice chair of the x-factor foundation. 47 minutes after the hour. to one's military oath. the same set of values that drive our nation's military are the ones we used to build usaa bank. from free checking to credit cards to loans, our commitment to the military, veterans, and their families is without equal. ♪ visit us online to learn what makes our bank so different. usaa. we know what it means to serve. so if i didn't know better i'd say you're having some sort of big tire sale. yes we are. yeah. how many tires does ford buy every year?
