Peter cook is on capitol hill, previewing the republican response to tonights state of the union as we ask who is joni ernst. We begin with Phil Mattingly on president obamas six address to congress. We always knew the state of the union was going to be heavy on economics. We learn that focus would include major tax increases on some of the countrys highest earners in order to pay for tax breaks for the middle and lower income.
