Foreign policy but every time youve offered an opinion youve been wrong. Our navy is smaller now than any time since 1917. We also have fewer horses and bayonets. The president appeared small and governor romney appeared president ial. Clearly, if you watched this debate, the president looked like the stronger guy. It felt like we went toy Foreign Policy debate and a domestic policy debate. I love teachers but i want to get our private sector growing and i know how to do it. I thmpg we all love teachers.

On cbs this morning he said he had a very big announcement about president obama that could cost him the election. Yeah . Hes going to endorse him. Captioning funded by cbs welcome to cbs this morning. Im charlie rose in new york Norah Odonnell is in boca raton with Bob Schieffer, the moderator. Candidates met last night face to face for the very last time. Instant poll shows president obama left the stage with an advantage, 53 of undeclared voters who watched the debate said the president won. 23 called governor mitt romney the which were while 24 called it a tie. Those voters also said mr. Obama would do a better job on terrorism and National Security. The margin was nearly 21. Also 71 said the president can be trusted to handle aN International crisis. 49 said that about romney. And the poll with his split 50 50 on who would do a better job on policy toward china. The men met last night with a lot on the line. Before the debate the president was leading by just two points, which is within the margin of error so it is a statistical tie. We begin with jan crawford in West Palm Beach with the Romney Campaign. Good morning. Reporter good morning, norah. Good morning, charlie. Good morning to those of you in the west. This was the first debate when both candidates left the stage happy. The president really hit romney hard. His supporters saw that he scored some points but romney held his own. His team told me after the debate they thought he more than passed the commander in chief test. I know you havent been in position to actually execute Foreign Policy but every time you have offered an opinion, you have been wrong. Reporter president obama attacked early and often, at time sounding almost dismissive. You mentioned the navy, for example. We have fewer ships than we did in 1916. Governor, we also have fewer horses and bayonets because the nature of our military has changed. We have these things called aircraft carriers where planes land on them. We have ships that go under water, nuclear submarines. For much of the debate, the president was on the attack and both men acted as if mr. Obama were the underdog. Twice romney called him out on the attacks and instead of engaging often pivoted to the economy. Attacking me is not an agenda. Attacking me is not talking about how were going to deal with the challenges in the middle east. America must be strong. America must lead. And for that to happen we have to strengthen our economy here at home. You cant have 23 Million People struggling to get a job. Reporter when the two went head to head, romney pushed back. When you were asked whats the biggest geo political threat facing america you said russia not al qaeda. You said russia. And the 1980s are now calling to ask for their Foreign Policy back because the cold war has been over for 20 years. Excuse me. Gechlt o political, i said in the same paragraph and iran is the greatest National Security threat we face. Russia does continue to battle us in the u. N. Time and time again. I have clear eyes on this. Im not going to wear rosecolored glasses when it comes to russia or mr. Puttin and im certainly not going to say to him ill give you more flexibility after the election. Reporter a strategic decision for romney to generally take the high road and not engage on those attacks. Even on libya, romney specifically declined to hit the president. Instead, putting it in a broader context calling it his failed policies in the middle east. Not as heated in last weeks debate. Now off to nevada this morning, key swing state. He has a rally there with his running mate paul ryan. Lets talk about the debate with the man who was in the middle moderator Bob Schieffer, host of face the nation. First, bob, congratulations. It was a great debate between the two candidates where we got a full exchange of views. What was it like being there . Its very exciting. And its also i mean, youre just sitting there, and youre so close. You feel like you can well, you can. You can almost reach out and touch both of them. And you get to see the reaction when theyre looking at each other straight in the eye. And in a case where they would turn to me and lock at me for a while. But, you know, i thought he came off pretty well. My objective going into this, norah was to come away feeling that people got a better understanding of who these people were and what theyre all about. And i kind of felt like that may have happened last night. Whoa get to see their demeanor on camera the way theyre looking at each other in that split screen. You get to see them up close and personal. Is there a lot of tension between these two men . I dont think theyre going to be doing a lot of cookouts together with their families after the election. But, you know, i thought they handled themselves with great dignity this time around. This was spirited. The elbows were sharp. But i thought this was worthy of a debate about the presidency. And it also gives me a greater appreciation norah, of just how hard these problems are. Most of the easy problems have already been solved. Whats on the plate of the next president , whoever thats going to be are very very difficult things. As you saw last night on many of these issues theyre fairly close on it. But you also saw they think this election will be about the economy and both did everything they could to get it over to the economy and domestic issues whenever they could. Bob, you prepared hard for this. That was evident. What surprised you about the debate last night that was unexpected for you . I was i mean i did know this was a debate about Foreign Policy. I with his a little bit surprised, you know, as i just said, about the fact that both you know really did want to talk about economic issues. And i kind of let them go on that. They got into education at one point. And they went on about that for a while. Well you know, a lot of people like stan mccrystal, who used to be the commander of our forces in afghanistan, who think that education is the basis and the beginning of our National Security. And so i found that interesting, that they both wanted to talk about that. When we let that run for a while, i tried to get them back to more specific Foreign Policy question s questions. I found that quite interesting. To me, charlie, indicative of what they think the campaign ought to be about. This is their campaign. And i thought people ought to have an opportunity to see what they thought it should be about. As important as it was, some are suggesting that despite the president having won, that the governor passed certain tests he had to pass being president ial not making any mistakes and that he won in that way. And so now the crucial yes is, what do they do between now and election day . What do you think they have to do . Well, look i think both of these men are qualified to be president of the united states. These are two men, these are people of good values on both sides and theyre both intelligent men. Im not going to pick a president. Im going to leave that to the people to decide that. I thought we got a good and maybe a little better sense of who each of these men was last night. And so i felt in that sense i came away feeling pretty good about it. Bob hang with us for a bit. After the debate last night we got reaction from both running mates. First i asked Vice President joe biden about romneys claim that the u. S. Should do more to stop Irans Nuclear ambitions. Iran is more isolated today than it was when we took office. Iran has significant influence, not only in the shia world, but in the sunni world. And cowered their neighbors. The world was split on iran. We were viewed as somehow by the rest are of the world as being too unilateral. Today it is isolated. But the only thing that i heard maybe i missed something governor romney say tonight that he would have done it sooner. When, in fact before he was i dont know what he was saying before. Well governor romney in the past has been very top of your administrations handling of the security situation in benghazi libya and the protection of our diplomats there. Tonight he took a pass on that particular issue. I do have to ask you about a piece in the wall street journal this morning. They reported that the president was told in his president ial Daily Briefing for more than a week after that that the assault grew out of a spontaneous protest. And they did not change that assessment until september 22nd. I read that story and thought how is it that the contents of the president s daily brief is now in the pages of the wall street journal to help explain your administrations point of view . How could that happen . I dont know how that happened except i know that the head of the director of Central Intelligence said everything that the president said that i said that susan rice said that was stated was exactly what the talking points the Intelligence Committee was giving us and briefing us on. Lets now talk about the state of this campaign. Were just two weeks out from election day. The tone has changed a bit. You guys are now using terms like romneysia and sketchy to talk about romney and ryan. What happened to hope and change . Theres still a great deal of hope and change. Were also talking about the fact that 41 states the Unemployment Rate has gone down the houseing is starting to come back. We timely turned the corner. Laid out a plan as to how were going to create more jobs. The thing is that the attack ss being made by our friend seems to change every day. I mean they change their position. Theyve gone from ratelling the saber to carrying you know peace i dont know what they stand for. Romney and roin say these are petty attacks and theyre silly word game ss. Are they an indication youre worried because the polls have closed . A new poll out from cbs news in ohio that shows the president and your lead has been reduced from ten points to five points. Are you worried you may lose this election . No. Now look we knew this election you knew this, norah. Youre one of the most sop hichlt sti you knew this election was going to tight enen up, no matter who our opponent was. Its totally appropriate to point out that governor romney and congressman ryan have moved their positions drastically. They probably havent change edd them internally, but they keep running away from the idea theres not a 5 trillion tax cut. I mean these are things theyve been running on. This has been the staple of the new this republican party. Mass massive cuts in domestic spending. Significant increases in tax cuts for the wealthy and now now theyre saying no no no. No, no no. Thats not who we are. I think its totally legitimate to say who are you . On that note mr. Vice president , we have to go. Thank you so much for joining us. Thank you norah. We also spoke with republican Vice President Vice President ial candidate paul ryan, who was also staying up late after the debate. I asked him if governor romney should have pushed harder on the libya issue. Its been a story of changing stories by the administration. We didnt want to go into all the litigation of it. What mitt romney wanted to do was lay out his vision for the country, how to have a stronger economy, which makes for a Strong National defense and Strong America. It seemed in the dough bait that governor romney seemed to be bending over backwards to agree with the president on multiple occasions, sort of saying he concurred with president obama. Why did he fail to draw some of the distinctions tonight . Well, there are some things where we do agree. We agree with the decision to go after Osama Bin Laden. We agree with the continuation of the bush drone policy. Those things, we agree with. Where we disagree is in the president s poor handling of the iranian situation. Iran is four years closer to a nuclear weapon. The administration fought us on sanctions in congress on a bipartisan basis for years until we finally got bipartisan support to overwhelm the president s position. Now we have the sanctions in place. We also disagree with the defense policy. This trillion dollar cut in defense will devastate our defense, make us weak project weakness. Mitt romney did a great job of contrasting that. But on military spending that was one of the sharpest exchanges in the debate. And president obama said this is not a game of battleship. But, yes, there arent as many ships but there arent as many horses and bayonets. Thats a pretty tough attack. To compare modern american battleships and navy with bayonets i just dont understand that comparison. Look, we have to have a strong navy to keep peace and prosperity and sea lanes open. The president s all these defense cuts go through, our navy will be smaller than it was before world war i. Thats not acceptable. The ocean hasnt shrunk. You still have to have enough ships to keep sea lanes open to keep our strength abroad where it needs to be. Can i ask you to talk about your position on syria . We have heard governor romney in the past say you would work to ensure that the opposition they need to defeat assads tanks, fighter jets. Does that mean you would be willing to supply the opposition with heavy weaponry . What weve always said is that we want to work with our allies in the region ss, the turks, saudis identifying the good allies in syria, fighting against the b aashar al assad regime. I have to ask you forgive me. The type of arms, when he said obtain the arms they need to defeat assads tanks, fighter jets, you need pretty heavy weaponry to defeat tanks and fighter jets. We already know that Free Syrian Army people in syria already have the kind of weapons to do just that. Here is the problem with delaying so long with going over a year and a half and not having loweredship. Bad actors are joining this fight. Al qaeda is coming into syria. What is your position on one on one negotiations with iran . You see a scenario where that could ever happen . Sure. Weve always said were willing to talk but were not going to take off sanctions or lessen anything. Whether multilateral or bilateral as an excuse to delay sanctions. Were going to keep pushing sanctions, have harder sanctions, all the list of thing that is governor romney said. If they want to talk, thats fine. Were not going to seize or put any kind of temporary hold on any kind of sanctions as a condition of talking. No preconditions. If they want to talk that is perfectly fine. Congressman ryan, thank you for joining us. You bet, norah. Bob schieffer is back with us. Two weeks to go before election day. What happens in these next two weeks . Or can you even focus on that . I have no idea. I have been so zoned in on trying to get this debate done and talking to people about it. I mean my clock kind of stopped at 10 30 last night. Have you ever seen it this tight at the end . No. No no. This is going to be very close and go right down to the wire. Youve got all kinds of things. Theres a real possibility you might see one win the popular vote and the other win the electoral vote. You could have an electoral tie, which means it goes into the house of representatives next year. There is just no telling what might happen. It might all come down as it did in 2000 to right here in florida. All i can say is theres not going to be a landslide this year. I would bet money on that. Im not betting a cent on anything else. Well be together on election night, following that. Bob schieffer, thank you. Congrats. And a good debate. Good job, bob.

And the number one sign you know nothing about Foreign Policy you made it your mission to prevent iran from enriching inging geraniums. What . Welcome back to cbs this morning. Im norwich city in boca raton, florida. And charlie rose is in new york. Bill oreilly hosts the Oreilly Factor on fox news. His latest book is number one on the New York Times bestseller list, but get this, number five on the New York Times bestseller list is killing lincoln. Welcome. Thank you, charlie. And i appreciate you buying all those books for me. Somebodys buying them, i can tell you that. Thats for sure. A half million sold. You stayed up late last night. Do you agree with the consensus that president obama won the debate . I agree that the debate was the most boring debate that ive seen i think in my lifetime. I dont know how anybody could have gotten through 90 minutes. It was just stupefyingly dull. So tell me what you thought the strat the strategies of the two camps was. I think governor romneys strategy was to appeal to women. Thats why he didnt do any libyan stuff. He didnt confront. His main mantra was well criticizing me, mr. President , isnt going to get the Foreign Policy job done. He wanted the come across as softer to women because thats what he needs to win the election. Do you think that worked . I have no idea. Im not a woman. So i dont know. Ill leave that. Its inexplicable that governor romney did not question and neither did Bob Schieffer the president about libya, which is the hottest Foreign Policy story in the world, and it was just like ignored. So thats inexplicable. Now, on president obamas part i think he wants to show mitt romney as an amateur. Right. Lets just get it across this guys an amateur. Hes a poser. So in that way, the president was effective. Because he kept bringing up hey, youre changing your positions, you dont know what youre doing. So he really had a very sharply focused strategy much more aggressive. I think Bob Schieffers first question was about libya. It doesnt matter charlie. And im not knocking Bob Schieffer here. All three of the debate moderators will not press the issue like you do on 60 minutes. So you want to see a more aggressive moderation. I want answers to the questions. If youre going to say we have to be pakistans friend as governor romney did, then youre going to have to explain how you get there when pakistan is actively killing u. S. Soldiers. Not just say well, we have to be their friend. Well, how are you going to do that . When youve got a scientist in prison for helping us get Osama Bin Laden. Those questions arent asked. But the moderator is trying to get something happening. Hes trying to get the candidates to engage each other. It seems to me that the criticism youre making goes to governor romney not to anyone else because the moderator the goal here was to get them to engage each other. But that doesnt happen. That lies are governor romney. All right i reject that whole thesis right away. I think that the goal to engage the two candidates i dont think thats the goal that the moderator should be anyway. Youre defining a different moderator. Heres what the goal of the debate should be, with all due respect to you, to show the American Public who the stronger candidate is. And you know how you do that . By holding their feet to the fire on certain things that dont make sense. Thats the goal of the debate. Whos the stronger candidate . Whats best for america . Not to have these two guys mud wrestle. That would be fine if they did it, but this isnt a cable news program. This is a president ial debate. You want the president ial debate to be a cable news program. I want it to be more like that in the sense that i want to get some illumination. They walk in with rehearsed answers in all three debates and they get to spill them out like this. Meaning the public cant make sense because both people are saying exactly contradictory things. Can i ask you a question . Sure. Did you learn one thing during that debate last night . One. I learned that perhaps governor romney believes hes ahead and therefore he took an approach not to be as confrontational as some expected him to be. Thats a perception on your part, right . So you didnt learn anything. Because i didnt learn anything. I didnt learn one thing. There was nothing there that they said about those issues that i did not know or have not engaged on this program and others. So why are we wasting 90 minutes of the American Publics time if were not learning anything. Well, i think they probably learned something about the two candidates by watching. Even though it might not have been a specific point on a specific issue. I mean there is something about demeanor, theres something about temperament. Theres something about how they handle themselves under the glare. Well then lets get dr. Phil. Oh stop that. You couldnt have done better in terms of the kinds of people who are making an analysis and assessment of this than the guys who are doing the moderation. I disagree. I think that the moderators of these debates have to come in with a 60 minutes mentality and ask questions and get answers. Lets go to the libya one quickly. What is it that you believe about libya that is unanswered for you . I believe that the Obama Administration lost control of their ambassador in libya and then after he was assassinated tried to sell what do you mean by lost control . They lost control of him in a sense that they did not protect him. So there was a security issue, that he was not protected. Big issue. And then after he was assassinated, lets try to sell this. Youre suggesting that they used politics here . That they, in fact, were not listening to the cia and other Government Agencies that the president simply was not listening to what he received in terms of briefing from the cia . Because basically the cia has said that they havent deny whad they denied what they told the president. It wouldnt be fair to lay it at Barack Obamas doorstep because hes campaigning. I dont know what he knew. I just know it was a monumental screwup that should be explained. And four americans were killed. Thats right. Bill oreilly killing kennedy. What do you tell us here that we didnt know about the assassination. We basically tell you why Lee Harvey Oswald did it. This is because of an interview that took place by somebodys wife . This was the fbi agent who was assigned to maria oswald. Had never spoken before to anyone. We got every movement. What did she say that is crucial to know . He basically was a loser and wanted to be a great man. And when he had the opportunity to kill someone, he figured that would make him a great man. It was basically a suicide. Oswald committed suicide. It was more about ego than it was about ideology. Nothing about ideology. He didnt even dislike jfk. What is this business about the american desire to understand conspiracies and assassinations . Do you believe there was a conspiracy here at all . No and i think we show that beyond a reasonable doubt. There were some people around Lee Harvey Oswald that should not have been there. I cant explain it and i tell the reader that. But he did it and he did it for his own venal reasons. The worthiness of this book is that its not only about kennedys death, but its about how he governed the country. How john f. Kennedy governed. In the beginning, he was bad. He was a bad president. But he became a very good president. And we take you through that and for those of us who know where we were when kennedy was assassinated, it answers all the questions. And you have said to me in the past you became a very big admirer of Robert Kennedy, his brother. Thats right. And thats shown in the book how Robert Kennedy was john kennedy brought him in to turn his administration around, and rfk was very effective there. Cuban missile crisis and other places. Thank you. Any time. Glad i woke you up here. The man who wants to be a moderator. President kennedys nephew is in thenews. We will hear from both sides when cbs this morning continues.

We all benefit from better schools. So when schools are in trouble, we all should help out. The wealthy can pay more, and under thirtyeight they do. Multimillionaires would pay an average of seventysix thousand more a year. Those making twentyfive to fifty thousand, just fiftyfour bucks. Prop thirtyeight guarantees money for schools. Every School Dollar must be. Spent on student learning. So we all pitch in, and every student wins. Vote yes on thirtyeight. On monday, a judge here in new york began hearing testimony in an unusual child endangerment case. The charges are misdemeanors and the defendant is a kennedy. Ready for justice. Reporter with his wife molly by his side Douglas Kennedy arrived at a new york courthouse. Kennedy, the season of robert and ethel kennedy, is on trial for the alleged assault of two nurses at a westchester hospital during an incident that occurred last january, two days after the birth of his son bo. The incident which was caught on surveillance tape occurred when kennedy wanted to take his son out for a walk. Kennedy is seen here in an elevator cradling the newborn. Thats when the two nurses say they tried to stop him because they didnt think he had permission to leave with bo. Kennedy then heads for a stairwell where things got physical, and one of the nurses can be seen tumbling to the ground. Its been very difficult for douglas and his family. So thats why we have trials and were prepared to begin. Reporter in documents obtained by cbs news one of the nurses testified that kennedy twisted my arm, causing pain. The other said that he raised his right foot and with tremendous force kicked me in the left side of my pelvic area. But in a cbs this morning interview, kennedys lawyer said that was untrue. The fact of the matter is both the hospital and the nurses putting the kennedys through this on the birth of their newborn baby when they did nothing wrong, when there should have been no criminal charges has just been a disgraceful episode. Reporter the kennedys dispute the charges and in a Statement Released in february said our simple design to take our son outside for fresh air has been warped into a charge of child endangerment. Charges a judge is now expected to rule on in the coming weeks. For cbs this morning, terrell brown, new york. Cbs legal analyst jack ford joins us now. Good morning. Should this case have been brought to trial . Its puzzling. You rarely see misdemeanor charges going to trial, especially when the defendant is somebody who doesnt have a long rap sheet. Otherwise, a respectable citizen. They almost always get worked out in some way, shape, or form. It sounds like here what youre hearing from both sides is that emotion has kicked in. I spent a lot of years trying a lot of cases. When decisions are being made in a courtroom based upon emotion, you dont really make the right decisions. You would have thought that something would have been worked out here. Everybody gives a little bit, takes a little bit and you walk away and say lets put this behind us and move on but youre not seeing it. Obviously theyre saying lets have a judge decide. Is it too late to have a plea . Its never too late. Literally until the jury has a verdict, or the judge says here is my verdict, y clouds around the bay area, but we could see more scattered showers throughout the morning hours. Gloomy there and showers making their way through the south bay early on this morning. Tapering off a bit. Still chilly temperatures. 40s and 50s right now. As we head toward the afternoon, it will stay cool, theres a slight chance of a few more scattered showers today. More rain expected overnight tonight into tomorrow morning.

They open the world series tomorrow against the detroit tigers. Tomorrow the San Bruno City Council will consider a resolution stemming from the pipeline explosion from two years ago. The council with weigh in on a petition calling for the ouster of the president of the state Public Utilities commission. Traffic and weather coming up in a moment. Good morning. , in the Traffic Center its been busy. We are dealing with slick surface around the bay area especially in the south bay. Look for trouble spots on 280 as you work your way northbound through downtown san jose. We had an earlier accident at saratoga and its been cleared but still slow. Westbound highway 4 at port chicago highway, that wreck blocking lanes. You can see highway 4 stop and go out of antioch and a little slow at the eastshore freeway. Northbound 880 starting to load up through oakland. Thats traffic. Heres lawrence. We have some rainfall early on this morning. Things trying to break up a little bit. Outside now we go. A lot of clouds throughout but what a neat start to the day as the storm system isnt done with us just yet. We have a chance of more showers but most of the heavy rain moving by this morning but still more off the coastline with the possibility of scattered showers today. Not going to be a rainout today. Chilly to start, 40s and 50s, by the afternoon lets plan on low to mid60s. I think more rain is developing overnight tonight into tomorrow morning. And then it looks like well finally catch a break partly cloudy skies on thursday. By the weekend, High Pressure starts to build back in. Those temperatures moving back into the 70s and it should stay dry. It is 8 00. Welcome back to cbs this morning. Theres just two weeks of campaigning left after the final president ial debate. Well look at the uncommitted voters who will decide this election and the two brothers from that charlie bit my finger, ouch video are back. Well tell you how theyre cashing in on that success. First, here is a look at whats happening in the world and what weve been covering on cbs this morning. Attacking me is not dealing with the challenges in the middle east. Last night the candidates met face to face for the very last time. I think what the American People saw is that mitt romney has the demeanor, the temperament and leadership skills to be a great president. Are you worried you were going to lose this election . No. You knew the leaks would tighten up no matter who the opponent was. What happens in the next two weeks or can you even focus . I have no idea. All i can say is theres not going to be a landslide this year. At least two tornadoes touched down in Northern California monday causing minor damage. I believe the Obama Administration lost control of their ambassador in libya and then after he was assassinated they went holy you know what lets try to sell this. Youre suggesting that they used politics here, that they in fact were not listening to the cia. Its been very difficult for douglas and the family. Prosecutors claim he endangered his newborn son. Its puzzling. You rarely see misdemeanor charges going to trial. It sound like here that emotion has kicked in. Lance armstrong was formally stripped of his seven Tour De France titles due to his doping scandal. On the plus side he did just see a nobel prize in chemistry. Im charlie rose with gayle king. Norah odonnell is in boca raton, florida where the president ial candidates debated Foreign Policy and other issues last night after the final debate, cbs news took a poll. 53 said president obama won the debate. 23 prd said governor mitt romney won. The poll asked if candidates can be trusted to hand al N International president. 71 trust the president , 49 trust governor romney. Clearly some chose both. This debate was supposed to focus on Foreign Policy. However, the candidates didnt miss a chance to discuss the number one issue in this election. They also butted heads on several issues. Governor when it comes to our Foreign Policy you seem to want to import the forethought of the 1980s, just like the social policies of the 1950s and the economic policies of the 1920s. Attacking me is not an agenda. Attacking me is not talking about how to deal with the challenges in the middle east. Our navy is smaller now than any time since 1917. The navy said they needed 313 ships to carry out their mission. Were down to 285. Headed down to low 200s if we go through with sequestration. I think governor romney hasnt spent enough time looking at how the military works. You mentioned the navy and we have fewer ships than 1916. Governor, we also have fewer horses and bay on ets. America must Strong America must lead. For that to happen we have to strengthen our economy at home. Both at home and abroad he has proposed wrong and reckless policies, praised george bush as a good economic steward and dick cheney as someone who shows great wisdom and judgment. The president began what i would call an apology tour of going to nations in the middle east and criticizing america. I think they looked at that and saw weakness. Nothing governor romney has said is true starting with this notion of me apologizing. This has been probably the biggest whopper thats been told during the course of this campaign. Im still speaking. I want to make sure we make america more competitive. I said if i got bin laden in our sights i would take that shot. You said we shouldnt move heaven and earth to get one man. I congratulate him on taking out Osama Bin Laden and going after the leadership in al qaeda. We cant kill our way out of this mess. What we cant do is go back to the same policy that is got us into such difficulty in the first place. Thats why we have to move forward and not go back. I certainly dont want to go back to the policies of the last four years. Major garrett, National Journal White House Correspondent with us. Good morning. Good morning. Commission, tear down this stage. Speaking of tearing down there was some of that in last nights debate. President obama accusing mitt romney of having a reckless and wrong Foreign Policy. What about the top sound bite about horses and bay ononets, it resonated. After the debate all the president s advisers said thats his idea. I think if the president stopped right there, the point would have been made. Then he went on with this gratuitous jag that we have aircraft carriers and theres these things under water called nuclear submarines. It felt as if the president was taking his sleeve and rolling it back and saying here is my destain for you, governor rom know. Im not sure this is the moment the president would prize the most looking back at it and one voters might say you know that felt a little harsh. One other interesting point that you picked up president obama on the issue of sequestration, automatic defense cuts that many people are worried about in the military community. The president said it will not happen. Did he go too far . Sequestration, sounds like latin, reads like greek, translates to money. Automatic spending cuts on the defense side and pentagon. Talked to obama advisers afterwards and said what do we mean . Its an interesting proposition if youre a liberal democrat to say, wait mant were going to raise taxes on the wealthy and with that revenue were not going to save the domestic side of our budget from cuts well give it to the pentagon . Im saying thats the president s perspective. He didnt explain it. His advisors did afterwards. Politically thats going to be a tough thing for the president to go down that road. Major, clearly most people believe the president won the debate. They also suggest governor romney executed his plan. Do the romney people believe what assumptions were they operating on about this election, about what they had to do . Afterwards, charlie, the romney advisors i talked to said in so many words we held our new base, not our old base of conservative republicans who were a little bit put out, if you would, by the governors lack of confrontation with the president on a couple of key issues. They said the new base is those recently converted, probably suburban women or lightly aligned republicanleaning men who looked at governor romney in the last two weeks and found someone the Romney Campaign believes was president ial didnt rise to the criticism or the nagging criticism from the president on certain issues and in the main did not appear eager to launch new americanbacked military conflict, not in iran not in syria. In that level they believe they made a persuasive appeal talking about bipartisanship and the need to find consensus in Foreign Policy. Its a nuanced argument but the Romney Campaign believes in this debate they wouldnt draw any political blood at the point of a nuance. Aids for both sides said both candidates left happy. Bill oreilly was here last hour. He called it boring. How would you characterize last night . You were there. Im a bit wonkier than bill oreilly. I thought it was great. The one thing i think romney would want to do if he had a chance he opened with a criticism in the middle east, where the arab spring is or is not going. He didnt describe where he would change the dynamic in that region in terms of policy. Voters who were tuning in missed that. The tech world is the tech world is talking about win dopes 8 this morning, microsofts new operating system. Its so different some people are already complaining about it. Well show you why its such a big change coming up next on cbs this morning. So on august eighth we woke up a sleepy town to show that eating well can be easy and delicious with jennieo turkey bacon and sausage cooked thoroughly to 165 definitely very good its excellent this is delicious makes me want to eat breakfast more e its time for a better breakfast i cant stop eating this make the switch look for jennieo at a store near you its strange, im getting gray but kate still looks like.

Come to my window crawl inside and waited by the light of the moon microsoft is launching a new operating system for personal computer this week. Pc users are about to get a surprise, or maybe a shock. Windows 8 looks nothing like the windows millions of people have become accustomed to. Jeff glor has seen it and joins us with a preview. Hello to you. Hello, gayle. Microsoft say this is is not a makeover, but a complete reimagining of what windows should be. We sat down with a few users to see if they were ready. To start with theres no start button. A tidal shift for those currently working with windows. Start menu is not very obvious, but i assume its here somewhere. Reporter microsoft ads indicate the operating system is easy to use. But whether youre currently using a pc or a mac, windows 8 can be a bit of a shock. Hit escape . Uhoh. I mean back . Shift . I would think escape would be the easiest way to get out. I want to escape. Why cant i escape . No hints, huh . Reporter at its heart its full of touch centric tiles that guide users around not traditional lists and icons. Colorful, but not catered to users of a mouse, a peek ahead to the future of tablet and mobile computing. How do i go back here . How do i open it . How do i get anywhere . Oh. Reporter the multiple users we asked to try it all had Different Levels of experience. What are your initial impressions . It is clean and fast. Its less cluttered. I think it seems more user friendly. Its like a dock. Does it seem like something youd expect from microsoft . Its not their usual style to have colors and things. Reporter for the most part they like the layout but they were frequently frustrated by how to get where they wanted to go. Theres always that hard transition. When we went from one version to the next version. It takes a minute, but its never been this difficult. Reporter microsoft founder bill gates says the new look is a look ahead to whats next. The rich user interface is a big step. Its key to where personal computing is going. Reporter with this radical redesign, the company is taking a big risk hoping it results in a big reward. Windows 8 goes on sale on friday, the same day they release their tablet computer the microsoft surface. Also the same week that apple is announcing the ipad mini. The wave of the future charlie and gayle. Oh, boy, another new gadget. With us is brian cooley editor at large for cnet. Com. Good morning. Good morning, guys. As we just saw, a lot of the consumers are pretty frustrated. What does that mean for microsoft and how much do they have riding on it . Jeffs focus group there does point out a key difference with windows 8 in that when you get there, it looks like it could also live on a tablet or a phone. A similar look is also now found on the xbox and this is going to be microsofts reunion, if you will. They need to bring all their different worlds computers, phones tablets an consoles together so when you get in front of any of them you always know the gas pedal is on the right, if you will. You need a consistency here. This is their effort to do that and bring all their assets together in one universe the way that apple has done very well. So do they achieve that . I like the way this works, particularly on touch devices. Weve had a number of early sample tablets an phones in our building for this kind of testing, and it does have a learning curve, charlie. A lot of things are not as intuitive as i think you would find on an ipad. But theres also i think in many ways a lot more going on here because this is a class of products tablets in particular that can be both computers as well as media tablets. The ipad doesnt try to be a computer. It doesnt try to bring you the mac. Its just an ipad. Some of these microsoft tablets will try to be both a windows machine and a tablet. Big announcement from apple today with the new ipad mini. Lir have the iphone thanks to charlie rose. Her name is charlotte. I have the ipad. Do people really now need an ipad mini . This is going to be an interesting question. Its a matter of your behavior. Do you feel as if the phone is not enough real estate and you like to have more on the go . If you do you probably want to have a tablet. But a teninch tablet like a current ipad, thats a big piece of luggage to carry around. I like the new seveninch ones that apple is interesting to respond to because theyre pocketable. Will that cannibalize the ipad as we know it . Theres a lot of people saying i will never spend 500 to 800 on a thing as big as my head and carry it around. This will open the market. I cant see it not cannibalizing people who are upgrading or cross grading their ipad. They may go to smaller one yet. That will be a less profitable decision for apple. Got it brian. Thank you so much. The race is two weeks away. When we come back were talking to eight undecided voters. What do they have to say . Well tell you after the break.

W. A. T. Team have surrounded the area around 5 a. M. Two people have been taken into custody. No word on what police are looking for inside the home. And how about the giants . They are going to the world series for the second time in three years. They finish off the st. Louis cashed analysis with a 9 0 rout last the cardinals with a 90 rout last night in the pouring rain. Tomorrow night they open up the world series tomorrow against the tigers at 5 00 at at t. Traffic and weather coming right up. Good morning. Its still a little slow and go at the bay bridge toll plaza. But i promise its actually an improvement than from what it was earlier. Metering lights are on. Again, a little sluggish there as you come through the maze and headed towards the toll plaza. Better off the eastshore freeway. Elsewhere a couple of hot spots out there. We are seeing delays on 580 through the Altamont Pass. Also on 880 and highway 24. Heading on 101, looks like were seeing slow conditions north and southbound near candlestick 280 as well through daly city. Give yourself some extra time. And the south bay is getting better. Had an earlier trouble spot on 280 near saratoga thats clearing so we are seeing improving drive times. Heres lawrence. We have rainfall overnight mainly into the south bay beginning to wind down now. And out toward ocean beach it will be a cool day at the coastline. A lot of clouds outside still a chance of a wandering shower and hidef doppler picking up on some of that moisture just off the coastline but its going to be widely scattered not a washout today. Chilly, only 43 in santa rosa, 49 in san jose and 53 degrees in san francisco. A little brisk and breezy today around the bay area, highs only in the 60s. Think better chance of rain tonight into tonight morning then dry out on thursday, sunshine warmer weather for the weekend. Captions by caption colorado comments captioncolorado. Com thats what you call a high wire act here in boca raton. Welcome back, everybody. Im norwich city as theyre breaking the set down here. Charlie rose and gayle king are in new york. Good morning guys. Good morning. Good morning, norwich city. I Norah Odonnell. Everyone is saying boca ratone. I always thought it was boca raton. Duly noted. For months now, these candidates have been foe cushion on that state of ohio. Weve all talked about it. Its an important swing state again this year. We sent Dean Reynolds to visit with a bunch of people in steubenville, ohio, to see last nights debate and see if it helped them make up their minds. Reporter they were eight undecided voters in search of decision. I plan on leaving this hall knowing who im going to vote for. Reporter they sat and watched for the next 90 minutes studying the words, the expressions, the demeanor of the men on the screen. I will stand with israel if they are attacked. When im president of the united states, we will stand with israel. Did you learn things . Yes. Working with israel i didnt know that obama took such a stance regarding israel. It was nice to hear him take an authoritative stance that he would stand behind them. Reporter others thought governor romney made some good points. Then the president began what i called an apology tour of going to various nations in the middle east and criticizing america. Nothing governor romney just said is true. The part that got me about projecting strength over in the middle east, especially was governor romneys accusations about the apology tour. And what i didnt hear was really an answer. Reporter several thought both men had strikingly similar positions on a host of issues. I want to underscore the same point the president made. Their plans were sort of similar in a way, but romney just reiterated that he would put a little more emphasis on what obama was saying. It seemed more like romney was the one saying i agree, i agree. Do you think they wasted time talking about domestic issues . I do. I think a lot of those other main talking points any way they could segue to it, they were going to do. Now were going to have to get to a balanced budget. Cutting our education budget thats not a smart out choice. Anybody flatout rude . I thought president obama was, condescending about the navy remarks. We have these things called aircraft carriers where planes land on them. Several others like the civility of this encounter when compared to the town hall format. I thought that they both allowed each other to answer the question and i thought they were very patient with one another. I thought it was a very civil debate. When it was all over they were asked who won. The president got two votes. Governor romney got six. All said they had made up their minds, at least for now. Was this the deciding factor . I mean something can change tomorrow. After all they still have two weeks to really truly decide. For cbs this morning, Dean Reynolds steubenville, ohio. Well, look there guys. It looks like romney won in Dean Reynolds focus group. And this was from ohio. Steubenville, ohio. Interesting. I always think its very interesting to see the process what people what resonates with people and what doesnt. Because some people say the remark he made about the navy was deadon. Other people thought it was very dismissive and condescending. I always like to see whats going on in peoples minds. I agree. Norah odonnell, dont forget to pass that remark on to Bob Schieffer. I will. Im going to tell him. Hell be excited. Thank you, norah. Cbs this morning reads its our new feature. Our first book is team of rivals the political genius of Abraham Lincoln.

Com because cbs this morning reads. And speaking of reading, weve got an author that we know youre reading already. Tom wolfs new novel is about race class, and sex, with palm trees in the background. There he is in his iconic trademark white suit. Tom wolf is one of the worlds most recognizable authors. Hes written more than a dozen books, including the right stuff and the bonfire of the vanities. His latest novel is his first in eight years. Back to blood takes place in present day miami and it is already getting a whole lot of attention. He is here in studio 57. Were pleased about that. Welcome. Thank you very much. You have made cities famous because of a man in full. Youre also fascinated by the immigrant experience. Is that what led you to miami . That is how it began. And this was actually, i was still working on my last book when i got the idea. And i would tell people i was thinking about something on immigration. All of that sounds great. Go to sleep like a horse standing up. But it gradually got more interesting. And then you go to the city the city of miami. This was what they thought about tom wolf. That he would be a prima donna in a white suit that he would come into town because the research that you do is painstaking. You go to miami and you just sort of walk along the streets meeting and talking to people. And the thing that they were saying, charlie, is how is does a guy in a bright white suit blend in . But you did. My approach is always the same. What is your process . Im just going to a big room saying and i find people will be on guard for the first 30 minutes to an hour. Because heres somebody asking them questions. But if you get through an hour or an hour and a half with somebody you spend that much time . Well if necessary. Theyll drop their guard. Theyre tired of keeping up the guard. Its hard to be always careful of what youre saying. What are you looking for . In this case, i really did want to see what the how these different races and cultures and nationalities blended together. Pieces of steel that never melted. Can we talk about your look tom wolf . Because a lot has been made about your white suit. Somebodys got to get a shot of his shoes. Explain the shoes, please. The shoes really are the last frontier. Theres nowhere else to go. This is for men . For men, yeah. Theres no stopping them. But why the white suit . Why the white suit always . The white suit was a happened naturally. I had just gotten a job the ambition of my newspaper career in new york. The New York Herald tribune. It gets hot here in june. I was hired in june. And those days reporters had to wear a jacket and tie. I think if you do that today, youre fired. At that time you had to do that. So i went into a store and i saw a white suit. So i bought it because in the south where i grew up it was nothing unusual. A lot of white suits in richmond. Oh yeah. It was either white linen i have a couple of those myself. Charlie . The jacket. A sport jacket. Okay. Let me ask you one last thing. You became part of whats called new journalism. Yes. Where is journalism today . Ill give you two names. Michael lewis. Yes. And mark bodden. Michael lewis is great and mark bodden is great. But what you did and what tommy hopson way back when really redefined the way you could understand personality. And so its good to have you here. Well, thank you very much. I did that until i was 57. I said i think ill try a novel. The book is called back to blood. It goes on sale today.

Now an update on a beloved online video that turned two brothers into an internet sensation. As Mark Phillips reports, theyre back after nine years cashing in on their now famous catch phrase. Reporter in the youtube age, every family video is a business opportunity, especially probably the most successful family video of all. The one that stars harry davys carr and his baby brother charlie, and that produced the memorial line charlie bit me. Charlie bit me. Charlie reporter as enduring lines from the movies go charlie bit me may not be this isnt kansas anymore, or frankly my dear, i dont give a damn, but after being viewed almost half a billion times in five years since the video was released its become the catch phrase ticket for a lucrative charlie bit my finger Family Business guided by the boys father howard. Weve never gone out to look to find income from it. Its things have come along, people have suggested things and weve taken them up on that. Charlie bit your finger. Cue the commercial, this time for pasta sauce. Now aged 8 and 6, harry and charlie may seem a little bored with celebrity. What was that like . Not fun. About six hours for only 32 second. But they still know what theyre there for. Some things never change. I know its exciting biting a finger. The success of charlie bit my finger is reflected in download numbers and tshirt sales. What is harder to understand is why. I think the whole scene is you dont need to understand the lang wanluage to watch it. Its something which seems to capture so many different emotions and things going on that theres something there for everybody. Reporter including big brands looking for new angles. Nothing sells like cute says media critic barbara lippert. I think theres a big future in advertising mining, social media and mining youtube. The problem is if it gets overused, its just another fad that people get sick of. Reporter brotherly rivalry has sold as an idea since cain and abel. But whos the star here the biter or the bitee . It has to be me. Im the one that put the finger there, and there again. I bite it. But you were a little child and you didnt know what you were doing. Reporter chew on that. For cbs this morning, im Mark Phillips in london. Im thinking when he said cute always works. Cute always works in a video, dont you think . I think so. Thank god for tetanus shots. Parents everywhere would be getting their kids to bite each others fingers. Good to have you here mo. Speaking of cute mo admits hes cute and he cant cook. Grandmother can cook. His grandmother can cook. So naturally he has a new show on the cooking channel, but he will have help from experts, his grandparents. His show is called my grandmothers ravioli. Im going to put you to work and im going to work. Can you do this . Sure. I feel like i need to work on my pronunciation. I know its a tough word. Dont spit. Superb. You are the best. I like your grandmother, dont you . Thats ruth. Thats one of the grandmothers. What was so funny charlie, you started cracking up before ruth, the grandmother, who is not your real grandmother, another grandmother, before she even said anything he was laughing. Im going to show you how to cook. Theres something about seeing grandmothers in character, being themselves is really very amusing. Yeah, its aN International language, isnt it . Yes thats what it is. And every grandparent im learning from in this series 13 different episodes, has been great. Ive been adopted by all of them. Different ideas for a grandmother favorite segment . Absolutely yeah. My grandmother passed years ago, and i never learned to cook from her. So im doing the next best thing, which is im learning from everybody elses grandparents how to cook. That was your great omission you never got her to teach you to cook. I was very close to her, but i never showed up early for family meals to actually learn how to make her ravioli or anything else that she made. And its been a joy just going this is the easiest job ive ever had, the most fun, just going into other grandparents homes and their kitchens and not just learning how to cook but why they cook. Because it really is so much more than about the food. As great as the food is, isnt it more than just the food . Absolutely. These are people who are at a point in their lives where things have really crystallized what really matters. Theyre in a kitchen, a place that they love cooking for people that they love for their families, for their friends. Every episode culminates in a family meal and i get to meet all these different family members. Oftentimes you think how could these individuals be related to each other . But theyre sitting around one table, which is whats beautiful about a family. How did you select the grandmothers . Well, you know, its tricky because im reluctant to call it reality tv because that suggests the toxic sludge that most reality tv is. But the irony is that people that dont really want to be on tv are usually better on tv than people who desperately want to be on tv. So these are not like these are people who he had to find to convince to be on tv because their lives are full and being on tv is way down on the list of priorities. What do you find most satisfying doing on television . Something where you can be involved with real people . Yes. I find that when i can participate in a story without stepping on it and perform to some degree thats really fun. And to bring out people who arent celebrities, and to bring out their personalities is a joy. What was fun was that there was a little party in mos honor last night and a lot of the grandmothers were there. To a t, all of them said about you that youre smart, funny, hilarious, and you all made them feel so comfortable. I asked ruth i said were you nervous with mo . She said why would i be nervous with him . She said im in my kitchen using my own pots and fans. And she taught us how to make creplak. It sounds like a cat with a hairball. And she goes no, it doesnt. Its amazing. Its not a species of fish. Ive never had it. Its a combination of white fish and pike and its poached and made into a ball. Its fluffy and wonderful. If it comes out of a jar, its dangerous. Youve got to make it homemade. Thank you very much. Good to have you here. Norah, come back soon. Thank you. Great to see you. Mo, i love the chemistry you have with grandmothers. Thank you norah. Hurry up and become a grandmother. Become a very young grandmother and youll be on the show. That does it for us. Happy birthday to billy miller. Up how does it brew such great coffee . Well, inside the brewer are these green fields of coffee actually, i just press this button. Brew what you love, simply. Keurig. Your realtime captioner linda Marie Macdonald good morning, everybody 8 55 your time. Im Frank Mallicoat with your cbs 5 News Headlines. The big headline, the giants, of course.

We have the big game tomorrow. I think its going to be okay but we have showers to get through between now and then outside. Still a lot of clouds streaming across our skies. We had rainfall early on today most of that in the south bay but thats clearing out. You will notice off the coastline there could be a wandering showering in the bay area. So not entirely dry today. And its going to stay cool. Right now chilly in spots. 40s in the north bay valleys, even 49 in san jose. By the afternoon a brisk cool 60s showing up outside. Winds going to be kicking up toward the afternoon. Looks like more rainfall overnight into tomorrow morning, hopefully dry by the game. I think it will be. Then it looks like warmer weather is expected over the weekend. In fact, the weekend High Pressure builds in and those temperatures are soaring up into the 70s. Were going to check out your timesaver traffic coming up next. Good morning. Coming up coming up has just issued a wind advisory for the bay bridge so windies across the span. Be careful there. Still busy on the eastshore freeway. Metering lights are on. Give yourself some extra time. 580 an improvement westbound Altamont Pass to 680 only 15 minutes now.
