Welcome to today on a sunday morning. Im lester holt. Im jenna wolfe. Im an unbelievable daylight savings streak. I have not been to work late in the last two years when this has happened. People are saying why is the today show on so late today . I went to bed at the right time. Normally you racialize and say and i got eight hours sleep. Wide awake. Painted the studio when i came in. I did poor math, slept three hours, but got here on time. How about the pictures . They are interesting. Like this romance to it. Got never before scene pictures of charles and diana, that make you think of the time when they were when everybody was sort of enthralled by the whole relationship. Now were watching the other couple. This as their oldest son making news of his own. Prince william and princess kate have found their permanent home. They have been staying in a twobedroom apartment in kensington palace. Upgrade is pretty nice. Where are they off to . Their digs, ahead. A real jolt for the nations heartland. A powerful earthquake rocked oklahoma on saturday. The largest in the states history, and the fourth quake since friday. The most recent registers 5. 6 and startled a lot of people as you might imagine. Much more coming up. A lot of quakes in places we dont normally see them. The grittier side of celebrity life. Remember the tours that took people by celebrity homes. And tmz changes the fork us from stars to scan sdals. Showcases nightclubs where stars have having fun and sometimes getting in trouble. That coming up. Check out who stopped by our studios. Mr. Cosby. Dr. Cosby. We had fun with him, especially at my expense. What did he say, how did he say it, how long did he stay . All of that coming up. If you spent time with him im sure you spent time with him over the year you cant have an agenda. Never give him a gift on television. Well see why, coming up. Saturday nights gop debate between herman cain and Newt Gingrich. What he to say, or not say actually about the Sexual Harassment charges against him. Mike viqueira with more. Reporter the election happens one year exactly from today. With the first votes cast in iowa in their caucuses in less than two months, herman cain is lashing out at the media. Called the media nit picking and dishonest as he tries to survive the controversy swirling around him. It was a oneonone faceoff of competing conservatives. We are have to come up with solutions. Reporter Newt Gingrich rising in the polls. You cannot micromanage Health Care Costs out of washington, d. C. Reporter and herman cain, now struggling amid charges of Sexual Harassment. No talk of scandal allowed. Only after the debate when cain met the press that things got testy. I was going to do something that my staff told me not to do and respond. What im saying is this. We are getting back on message. Thank you, mr. Cain. Back on message. End of story. Back on message. Read all of the other accounts. Read all of the other accounts, when everything has been answered. End of story. Back on message, okay . Reporter despite a weak of controversy. Cains Campaign Says donations have increased four fold. Michele bachmann launched an attack. Everyone loves him. Who doesnt . He has a great personality. But this is the leader of the free world were talking about. Reporter five republican candidates presented a unified front at a dinner in des moes. Were involved in a project called operation occupy the white house. Is that better . Reporter with the republican field unsettled and the first in the nation caucus two months away, experts say the race could go down to the wire. Until Iowa Republicans focus on a true decision, not who they like now, not who excites them now, we may have a distorted view of what republicans want. Reporter herman cain supporters held staedy since this broke a week ago, there is a new poll showing some slippage. The percentage of those who view cain favorably dropped 9 and dropped 5 to 32 among all registered voters. It appears this controversy is taking its toll and losing some support at this point. Lester. Mike viqueira, thank you very much. David gregory moderator of meet the press. Good morning. Good morning, lester. Cain doesnt want to talk and wants to move past controversy. Accusers arent speaking publicly. Is it beginning to look like he can weather the storm . He might be able to, for a couple of reasons. If one of the accusers dont want to go forward. It doesnt mean new revelations wont come out. When he had such a difficult week getting his story straight, look at the responses, thats enough, im done, that could be difficult. Here is the other point, lester. He created this alternate universe, where he uses this controversy in effect to say to his supporters, you see, this is this is what the media does, what the establishment does. And they are out to get me, because im the frontrunner, remember Clarence Thomas and it tends to galvanize his core support. Here is the other question. Did can he get above that 25 and get new people to look at him. Lets say its not hurting him right now. It is hurting mitt romney, not getting any attention in all of this . Mitt romney is happy to have herman cain getting this kind of attention. It detracts from the idea that it was supposed to be A Perry Romney race. They are not saying anything disparaging about herman cain. Why . They dont think hes electable. They think this is flirtation, not marriage. The white house thinks this is getting in the way of romney getting roughed up by his rivals. The president s Approval Rating is starting to rise after hitting historic lows. Has this bought him time . The focus on the republicans. Time to get a strong message to go against republicans . The president has to hope this is bruising enough primary fight that whoever the nominee is comes out more weakened and vulnerable to a choice kind of election rather than a referendum. By that, i mean once the president gets into a oneonone situation, his top people are saying hes going to look very hard at tearing down republican nominee. Why . The president doesnt want to run on his record per se. Look how many people think the country is off on the wrong track. 9 unemployment. A million out of work. This is looking to say, hey, i have to make rough choices and the other guys are no better. Continuing the meet the candidate series, who do you have on . Jon huntsman, really betting everything on new hampshire. The question, can he really start to take the fight to mitt romney which is something he wants to do. Well see you in a bit. David gregory, thank you very much. Thanks, lester. Craig melvin at the news desk with more. Good morning, lester. Good morning to you, everyone. Breaking news in baghdad.
