to date on this stuff. the senate is in recess now subject to a call. when the session resumes probably about the same time the ball drops we expect a vote on a bill to avert the fiscal cliff. one that has bipartisan support is how apparently washington likes to celebrate new year's eve, 2013. listen to joe biden. >> happy new year. >> happy new year. >> that, that has been happy new year, nobody here seem that's thrilled with celebrating new year's eve this he way with the light on. nor with the bill that has been crafted. selling this measure to extreme wing of both parties may be difficult. sharon brown a liberal democrat says he's a yes vote. saying it's imperfect but addresses key sticking point.

>> we need to protect american families and job creators from this looming tax hike. everyone agrees that that action is necessary. and i can rrt that we've reached an agreement on all of the tax, the tax issues. >> so, why the delay in the senate vote tonight? according to senate majority leader they still have to get a price tag from congressional budget office. as to the rest of the substance of the bill here is what we know. the measure raising taxes by $600 billion over 10 years compared with policies that expire midnight monday and would delay would two months those spending cuts slashing the budgets of the pentagon and a lot of domestic programs as well. and we've got a lot of other highlights but get down into the weeds and it's virtually unfathomable especially if you've hd a bottle of champagne or two.

>> tailor swift just came on the stage behind us. >> is it over? >> base ond what we heard today, her taxes are going up, she's not happy bit. >> doug, god bless you for being here as late as you are. it's not our fault. >> it's true. >> you come back if there is news, okay? thank you. >> okay. >> happy new year to you. >> and people who are staying home now, watching times square on new year's eve, do they want to hear about the fc? >> it's a huge deal. >> i know. but it's new year's eve. >> it's important. >> can we just have one night not bother bid those people down in washington? >> i think fantasy is that for to us think they'll get it done. on time. >> let's skt crowd here in times square. how do you feel about us not talking about the fiscal cliff anymore? >> woe, that is great. >> look. look. look how happy they are.

>> that is the moment of the night. yes. >> that is what we thought. up next, one of the greatest stories of rock history will play out on our times square stage. >> that is right. we're 22 minutes from the big ball drop. all american new year's eve is become in three minutes, 2013 is that far away. >> hi, i'm in afghanistan and want to say hi to family in new jersey my wife and daughter. happy holidays i'll be home, soon. >> hi. i want say happy holidays to my family and friends in california and hi to my husband, bill, my kids, i love you. i miss you. see you guys soon.

this is the city we live n the ultimate contrast. this is dullsville. we're waiting for the senate reset to end. acting slowly. we have been told not to expect votes and perhaps until 3:00 or 4:00 in the morning. most indicators are that it stands a good chance of passage in the senate. last word we got came from vice president joe biden. just minutes ago. here is the vice president. >> i feel very good about how is vote is going to go. having been in the senate, there are two things you shouldn't do. you shouldn't predict how the senate is going vote before they vote. you won't make a lot of money. two, you shouldn't predict how the house is going to vote. >> house will not vote on this fiscal cliff bill until tomorrow. we've heard from the house leadership that this bill will

not be voted on there until voted n in the senate. not until house leadership has had time to review the bill. tax on high income earners, it will produce $620 billion in revenue. unemployment eninsurance, $30 billion from one year, not going to be paid for with other costs. there are no spending cuts in this bill that. is going to happen -- have to be taken up at a later date. so big question mark whether or not the house, republican led house is going to go for that. back to you. >> a vote at 3:00 or 4:00 in the morning >> correct. in the morning. >> yes. >> i'll be here. >> can we talk about something else now? >> thank you. >> happy new year. >> here we are somewhere over the rainbow. it's kind of fitting. >> yes.
