Welcome to cbs this morning. A smaller president ial field is now battling for votes in the south. Carly fiorina and Chris Christie dropped out wednesday after finishing far back in New Hampshire. That leaves seven republicans still in the race. Most of them descended on South Carolina yesterday waste no time on getting their message out. The primary is nine days away. Julia goldman is in South Carolina where a president ial debate will be held by cbs on saturday night. Reporter the campaigns here are ramping up quickly and getting ready for a fight.

We are going to run the table and we will make America Great again. That i can tell you. Okay . Reporter holding on to his iowa victory, ted cruz tried to argue its a twoman race. The only candidate who can beat donald trump is me. Reporter recent polls have trump up double digits in South Carolina. But its a state cruz thinks he can win. In 2012, twothirds of gop voters described themselves as bornagain or evangelical. Can you imagine donald trump as president of the United States where he spends his time pushing people down to make himself the big dog on the stage . Reporter meanwhile, the diminished gop field continued their fight to become the establishment alternative to trump and cruz. Compare that to governor kasich, where he led the charge to expand medicaid and is quite proud of it. I wouldnt be proud of that, to be honest with you. Reporter john kasich arrived here ready to defend himself. Somebody wants to hit me or hammer me on them, god bless them but i wont back off of this. Reporter but he tempered expectations amid South Carolina the questions whether he has the money or the organization for the long road ahead. Looking forward to the deep south and the midwest. We have a plan to go the whole distance. Reporter donald trump insisted he is the only candidate who is up to the task. An average person who is not going win and i mean that. These guys are just regular republicans. Eye yi yi. Reporter senator marco rubio is trying to rebound from his fifth place finish in New Hampshire and hes promising to run a more aggressive campaign. This is a state known for rough and tumble politics. As senator Lindsey Graham said yesterday, if youre not ready to play, dont come to South Carolina. Its getting hot in here. Thank you, julianna. Hillary clinton is getting a boost as she and Bernie Sanders prepare for tonights democratic debate. The Congressional Black Caucus is expected to endorse the former secretary of state later today. Minority voters will play a much larger role in nevada and South Carolina. Nancy cordes is at the university of wisconsin, milwaukee, the scene of tonights debate. Reporter good morning. This debate has become high stakes for Hillary Clinton after her big loss in New Hampshire on tuesday. She stayed largely out of sight yesterday, prepping for the debate, while Bernie Sanders did something of a victory lap around new york. To get the vote down there, you have to eat boiled peanut. Have you ever a boiled peanut . Reporter on the late show sanders got Campaign Advice from a native south carolinian. You have that with a nice beer. You want a beer . All right. This is a little reporter but sanders knows it will probably take more than that in a state where blacks make up a solid majority of the democratic electorate. He sat down with the reverend al sharpton in harlem wednesday. Is this your block . Yeah. Reporter later took a walk through his Old Neighborhood with scott pelley where they discussed the road ahead. You are going to be facing africanamerican voters and latino voters. How do you appeal to those people . The same way we do to all americans. Reporter but the first black president favors hillary clin n clinton. I dont think there is any doubt that he wants hillary to win the nomination and believes she would be the best candidate in the fall. It is great to see so many old friends. Reporter in a speech in springfield, illinois, president obama appeared to echo some of Clintons Campaign themes. Trying to find Common Ground doesnt doesnt make me less of a democrat or less of a progressive. It means im trying to get stuff done. Reporter clinton lost South Carolina eight years ago. Her husbands critiques of mr. Obama there were seen as one reason why. This whole thing is the biggest fairy tale ive ever seen. Reporter in New Hampshire this week, it was sanders in his crosshairs which, the candidate discussed on the view. I was disappointed in president clinton. Ive known him 25 years and i like him and respect him. I hope this campaign does not degenerate he is fighting for his wife. I understand that. But nonetheless, lets keep it on the issues, not making personal attacks. I agree. Reporter on election night, sanders asked his supporters to donate online and they sent in more than 6 million in 24 hours. It is no accident, charlie, that members of the congressional black contactus are endorsing secretary clinton today to try to erase some of the sting of tuesdays loss. More than a dozen of them say they will be campaigning for her in South Carolina. Thanks, nancy. We spoke early with cbs news political director face the nation john dickerson. Hes in South Carolina preparing for saturdays Republican Debate. Reporter good morning, charlie. Are you outside . Reporter i am jououtside. I can see my breath. We brought New Hampshire down to South Carolina and im not sure they are very happy about it. Whats the stakes for each of them in the context of New Hampshire going to South Carolina . Reporter Hillary Clinton wants to turn the page. She wants a new story line to emerge after this debate. People stopped talking about how badly she lost in New Hampshire. Bernie sanders has to build on that momentum from New Hampshire. He has to give people who are turning to him and looking at him maybe for the first time in a different way a really easy understandable message they can rally around. John, is there any question about how shell do in South Carolina and nevada . The polls suggest that she is far out in front. Reporter exactly. And what she wants to do is lay a predicate for victories in those two places so she can say im a National Candidate and i represent the Broad Coalition of the democratic party. So those two states are very well set up for her. She just needs to get people thinking about those two states and not the last one. So Hillary Clinton is expected to get the endorsement of the Congressional Black Caucus today. Famous black author coat says he is endorsing Bernie Sanders. What kind of difference will that make and what message will it send, if any, to minority voters . Reporter i dont think the coates endorsement for bernie difference. What makes a difference, Hillary Clinton, i was here six months ago or so and they were organizing in South Carolina among the Africanamerican Community as if she were behind by ten points and that was six months when she wasnt. She has been working the state very hard. There is an organization here that is in place and she has been reaching out to the Africanamerican Community for a long time. She isnt just arriving and hoping for the votes. So that should really help her in this state. John, lets talk about South Carolina for the republicans. The electorate there is much more like iowa than it is New Hampshire. A lot more evangelicals in the republican primary, less independents. Does that present a challenge for donald trump . Reporter right. More conservatives, more evangelicals. But trump is way ahead here. Hes in much better shape here than he was in iowa going into the vote there. We will be watching. Thank you. John will be the moderator when cbs news brings you the ninth republican president ial debate saturday night at 6 00 pacific time here on cbs. John, could i say, just be yourself. Reporter ill be like gayle. Thank you, john dickerson. Always good to see you. The cruise ship damaged in the atlantic is back at court. Anthem of the seas docked last night. Calls for an investigation why the ship sailed into the severe weather, knowing it was coming. Don dahler was there as the ship arrived at the Cape Liberty Cruise Port in bayonne. Reporter good morning. This givers you some idea of the enormity of the ship. Look at the size of this thing.

Beaten, batter, but home, Royal Caribbean anthem of the seas limped back into new jersey last night. Free at last free at last reporter putting an end to the terrifying trip. But as some of the 4,500 poured out of the storm dch stormdamaged cruise ship, frustration boiled over. We thought we were all going to die the worst part was the fearing of our lives. We were told over and over we were in good shape. The reality they should have never set sail. Trapped in a room 17 hours and roller coaster you couldnt get off of.

But at 6 00 in the afternoon the boys are holding on to their bed. Reporter Royal Caribbean is facing criticism for Going Forward with the trip, despite the forecast. Bill bumgarner, a Senior Vice President with the cruise line, says the strength of the storm caught them offguard. Would you say the captain ultimately made a mistake in deciding to go ahead with this voyage . If we knew the winds of 125mileperhour sustained were going to be in the area, we never would have gone. No question about it. Reporter after reviewing weather reports for the area, a former cruise line captain told us the ship should never have set sail. There really was absolutely no way that that ship was going to avoid that storm. Its a miracle that the damage and the injuries were as minimal as they were. This could have been an absolute catastrophe. Reporter Royal Caribbean offered passengers one more night on board here in port and hundreds of them took them up on the offer. The anthem of the seas will be here for a few days for inspections and repairs and then its off on another cruise next week. Thanks, don. A baltimore server is reeling this morning from a shooting spree that left two sheriffs deputies dead. The violence began wednesday at a panera restaurant in a crowded Shopping Center. Officials believe one deputy was targeted because he was wearing his uniform. Jeff pegues is following this story from washington. Jeff, good morning. Reporter good morning. One of the deputies was responding to a call at that restaurant when he tried speaking to the suspect who was sitting at a table and that is when investigators say the suspect pulled a gun and fired. Lynn faulkner and her daughter sophia witnessed the chaotic scene inside the crowded restaurant. He just took out his gun and shot him in the head, like right after the officer asked him, how is your day. The initial deputy responded to the scene and ended the restaurant and deputy wounded at that time and the suspect fled. And in this case a responding deputy was the first to locate the subject and shots were fired. The deputy was hit by gunfire. The suspect was shot and is deceased. Reporter investigators say they recovered a loaded handgun near his body. The shooter, a 67yearold man, had an open warrant in florida for assaulting a police officer. According to the cashiers in panera, they said that he comes in there regularly, but he is a bit sketchy and they have been trying to question him and get him some help. We are not looking for anyone else. We believe this was an individual who is no longer a threat to the community. Reporter the officers names have not yet been released. We know one was a 30year veteran of the force and the other had served for 16 years. The investigation into the shooting is ongoing. One of the most important questions authorities are trying to answer this morning is why. Norah . Jeff, thank you. Good to see you.
