approaching. in galveston, texas, the rough surf, forecasters is expected for debby to strengthen. big question is where will it hit. our meteorologist is track the tropical storm. what is happening. >> i wish i had answers for you. at 5:00 they'll come out with the latest advisory and as soon as it comes in it's kruishlt that we show the viewers across the gulf coast states. from texas to florida, you need to be watching this system because within the next several days we could, indeed, see a hurricane. where it's going to make landfall and exact intensity is very uncertain. 5:00 is going we're going to see a lot of computer models will come together. over the last 24-48 hours there has been a big discrepancy where the zorm is headed. one thing we know it's kind of
4:01 pm
meandering, 60 mile-an-hour sustained winds. 74 miles per hourmakers it a hurricane. we enough warm water we could see a hurricane if it stalls out and doesn't make a northeast tour across florida that is one of resolutions they have been coming to. incredible amounts of rain. over ten inches of rain off the west coast of florida, tornado watch in effect until 8:00 with land falling systems that are systems that are close to land. we sometimes see weak tornadoes. some of the tornadoes have caused and damage in and around the naples area. we have video showing you some of the damage. this is from this tropical system that is way offshore that continues to bring those bands scraping across land bringing that friction and the threat for tornadoes. so we have several tornado warnings in effect. that is the damage we got in from yesterday around the naples
4:02 pm
area. we can't rule out more tornadoes in the next 24-48 hours. not just florida but along the gulf coast. there the tornado warnings and tornado watch that means conditions are favorable until 8:00 p.m. local time hoosm the here is the latest track. we get a brand-new track at 5:00. we'll have the track and latest coordinates. 60 mile-an-hour sustained winds. by monday, sitting and spinning. as we head towards thursday the consensus here is louisiana needs to be on guard but as we get the 5:00 advisory i think we'll see more of a northwesterly tour. we don't want to rule out texas, louisiana, you still in play as well as florida. so this was a really tough one to folk but i can't urge it enough, to forecast but i can't urge it enough. we'll bring you that 5:00 p.m.
4:03 pm
advisory so crucial. we'll have it right here. >> gregg: we'll check back with you. >> heather: in egypt thousands of people packed into cairo tahrir square and celebrating history in the making. erupting in cheers following the election of mohammad mursi. they are vowing to stay here until the military hands over complete control over to the country's new president. leland vitter is streaming live from cairo. hi, leland. >> reporter: hi, heather, the party is still going here and it will go on late into the night. tens of thousands of people streaming in tahrir square. it's quiet because the president elected is delivering his victory speech on state television as we speak. it is hard to underscore how much egypt has changed in the past two years going from hosni
4:04 pm
mubarek through the revolution and now today the election of a muslim brotherhood candidate. at one point spent time in prison for being a member of the muslim brotherhood. now president-elect of egypt. >> a deafening war came from up the square where muslim brotherhood supporters gathered to wait for election results. within hours the crowd grew creating something that looked like a rock concert with the world's largest new year's eve party. >> we make something very good. we are changing the whole system. >> this crowd has been chanting god is great and divine intervention that has brought mohammad morsi. it's simply a better life for their kids, this is why they voted more si and the fact to have their children in a country
4:05 pm
with a democratically elected president gives a much brighter future than they had. >> what is yet to be decided is what power morsi will have. right now they are ruled by a military junta who said they will write the new. >> gregg: they will stick around and shape it as much as they. >> can the army has not said when or if they will write the constitution and what powers they will give to mohammad morsi. clearly the crowd wants him an executive in the sense 6 a u.s. president, however, with the legislature now dissolved by the army there is going to be negotiation going back and forth from the brotherhood to the army in terms of where this power dynamic is going to play out. this is the mother of the arab world. right now there are capitals all over the world redrawing strategic map of egypt and of
4:06 pm
the middle east because it used to be staunch u.s. ally but now egypt is in play and implications for israel and all over the middle east here as things are changing. one thing is for certain is that morsi doesn't have a mandated. he won by an effective vote of about 2.5% of the population. there are many egyptians here or very, very fearful that he is going to turn their country into an islamic state. that is a big part of the egypt's population he is going to have to deal with. >> heather: he is, of course, the first islamic elected as the head of any arab state. i was going ask you in terms of control and power in egypt itself and this really being a symbolic victory right now, wha do you see happening tomorrow? do you see another battle brewing. >> reporter: absolutely. right now the battle lines are drawn here.
4:07 pm
it's between the army and muslim brotherhood, but the army has been very smart in how they have played this all along in terms of taking over from president mubarak and they have played things very well. there is thought here you will see a little bit of a negotiated settlement in the sense that muslim brotherhood is going to take most of the domestic policy initiatives, economic policy nishs and military and foreign ministry is going to be remain as a separate body and co-governing body. whether it lasts long enough or we're back with more revolutionaries at the square, it's certainly way to early to tell. but it's significant here is the muslim brotherhood taking over in this vote. that certainly has delivered a big wake-up call to washington, to london, to paris and certainly to jerusalem considering that egypt until two years ago was one of only two
4:08 pm
friends in the arab world israel has. while israel is publicly saying they are going to continue working with egypt you can bet they are a little bit less excited working now with mohammad morsi than they were about working with hosni mubarek especially with morsi tied to groups like hamas. >> heather: clearly excited there tonight. we appreciate it. secretary of state hillary clinton condemning syria for shooting down a turkish military jet. nato is going to discuss the incident. the wreckage was found in the mediterranean today. the pielt pilot has not been accounted for. the turkish foreign minister said it mistakenly strayed into international territory. syria insists it's not an attack on turkey. >> gregg: back in the u.s., a
4:09 pm
raging wildfire out of control near colorado springs. this fire burning more than 3 square miles over the weekend. 11,000 residents ordered to evacuate their homes forcing some difficult decisions about what to take with them. >> our pictures, our family items, computers that has all the information on them. take that and go from there. >> what do we take in case our how long burns down? it's really scary to think that we could come back and nothing would be here. >> gregg: we'll have a live report in the next half-hour. >> heather: battle lines being drawn over the fate of attorney general eric holder. they voted last week that he be held in contempt of congress. this week, the full house prepares to vote on the matter.
4:10 pm
two top ranking committee members hit the sunday talk shows to make their cases for and against holder. >> reporter: good afternoon. darrell issa the republican chairman of the house oversight committee told fox news he has no evidence that the obama white house was involved in approving fast and furious or in trying to cover it up, but issa said he hopes it faces justice. they have refused to tun over documents to the committee and president obama asserted executive privilege to keep it that way. issa he expected some democrats to hold the attorney general in contempt of congress if no accommodation is reached. the scandal broke open when a border agent was killed. at the scene of that crime. investigators found two of the guns that u.s. law enforcement officers had wliod to flow south
4:11 pm
of the border. the aim had been to trace these guns to the cartels. they have accused the republicans of doing politics over the facts and the law. >> it's regrettable we're here and certainly not be here. if the president and attorney general holder would simply started producing the documents they know they could produce to us that are not by any means are going to be covered by executive privilege this could be delayed or eliminated. >> i think that, i'm calling on speaker boehner to come forward and show strong leadership and sit down with the attorney general to resolve this matter. the attorney general has made it clear that he is willing to work with this congress. >> reporter: justice department has acknowledged that some of the information it has provided to congress on fast and furious turned out to be inaccurate, in short, this is a story the last
4:12 pm
we will not hear for some time to go. >> heather: james rosen, thank you so much. >> gregg: a tent city is sparking outrage, a massive rally calling for its closure. it was set up to house prison inmates. a fair and balanced straight ahead. >> a frantic search for survivors after a roof collapsed at a private mall. y absorbing the calcium they take because they don't take it with food. switch to citracal maximum plus d. it's the only calcium supplement that can be taken with or without food. that's why my doctor recommends citracal maximum. it's all about absorption.
4:13 pm
4:14 pm
4:16 pm
>>. >> heather: welcome back. time for a quick check of the headlines, search goes on for survivors as we see the first amateur video of a roof collapse at a mall in northern ontario. nearly two dozen people were injured and several are still any go. cause is still under investigation. >> man elected to succeed gabby giffords carry on. congressman ron barber held the first congress on your corner. at a similar event, congresswoman giffords six people were killed during a tragic shooting. alex trebek is recovering from a
4:17 pm
mild heart attack. he is expected to make a full recovery and be back to giving answers if in the form of the question a little later this month. he has been hosting jeopardy for the past 28 years. >> gregg: you know it's been a rough couple of weeks for the u.s. economy. job market, manufacturing, 15 of the world's biggest banks taking a hit. so what does it say about the state of our recovery? what potential impact in the election? come i nick, dominic dovella, how big is the bailout. i was going through manufacturing down. the g.d.p. is predictions are down. how bad is it? >> it clearly now, we were suspecting the economy was slowing down, but woo know you have that is what is going on.
4:18 pm
we have numbers that say from the u.s. this week that really show unemployment was starting to come up, firings are happening at greater place, the news coming out of europe is not positive. spanish bonds are going up. spanish unemployment is higher. it clearly seems that the economy is starting to grind to a much slower place. >> gregg: how much is our borrowing hurting us? >> look, from a psychological perspective, over the last three and a half years borrowed an incredible amount of money, we're over $15 trillion in debt. all with the promise we borrowed the money and stimulated the economy and pumped into solar panels and green energy that the economy would do better, unemployment would not rise and clearly that hasn't happened. we're paying a tremendous amount
4:19 pm
of interest on the overall debt and does not put us in a position where we have a lot of bullets left in the gun going forward. >> gregg: so what should investors do? >> investors and really consumers small businesses are doing the same thing, they are looking at the horizon and seeing the storm. you know what i need to pull back. so unfortunately, this might create a self-fulfilling prophesy. as a consumer i may be careful about spending. it puts the brakes on the economy. if you are a small business owner and reluctant what is going to happen in december, i'm not going to hire that next employee, i'm going wait to see what is going to happen. normal human nature wants to put the brakes on but unfortunately it puts the brakes further on the economy on hiring and growth. we are kind of in a quandary right now. >> gregg: you aren't sailing we
4:20 pm
should panic? >> there is positive here. the news overwhelms the positives. look what the price of natural gas, that has been a real nirvana, it's phenomenal. gasoline prices to the consumer puts real dollars in their pocket every single day. there is the secret neegh washington where they might work out a game plan here. so we don't drive off the financial cliff on december 31. we have to look, i don't know, there is certainly water in the glass but don't change our behavior not yet. >> gregg: it looks nice behind you. >> it's an image. >> gregg: thanks. >> heather: supreme court expected to lucratively on president obama's health care law any day now. despite the nine justices what do americans think about the

4:26 pm
>> heather: nation's highest court is expected to issue a ruling on healthcare law any day now. a number of top legal minds predict that the supreme court will overturn it. a new poll most americans oppose the law as whole a majority of provisions 82% protecting coverage for preexisting conditions, 72% like hiring companies with more than 50 employees to provide coverage and 61% supported the provision that allows kids under 26 to stay on their parents' insurance plan. what are the long term and short term predictions for america's healthcare? let's turn to our political panel. chris is a former chief of staff tony is a republican political analyst and campaign
4:27 pm
correspondent. thank you both for joining us. >> heather: 57% of supreme court clerks they say the individual mandate will be overturned. which is all americans who own healthcare health insurance. if it happens what is the fallout. what are the alternatives? >> this is the real issue. the individual mandate. whether or not some americans like individual portions of the healthcare bill, the whole enchilada is this mandate is having an individual system that will cost taxpayers a full trillion more than the president promised when he first came out with this plan. the situation as supreme court clerks pointed out constitutionally this goes beyond the scope and rights of the federal government and now we're back to hopefully a drawing board where you do have a consensus from the public and political world to reform healthcare and drive down costs,
4:28 pm
make it more affordable. the president's problem when he started out. he only focused on this whole question of universal access. the real problem is cost, hopefully in the new version of healthcare reform we can work in a bipartisan way to address that. >> heather: let's talk about this. under the current system, 16% of the population is left without coverage. it's costing us 18% of the gross national product. let's talk about in its entirety do you expect either side to move forward quickly given the stakes of election less than five months away or politics trumps progress on any healthcare changes moving forward? >> it will be politics trumping progress. the reality of the situation, when you talk about healthcare, it's such a political hot bed, both sides have their issues and divisions. it's really difficult to see how
4:29 pm
in this political climate. tragedy here is when it comes to healthcare reform you see it in the polls. you have individual americans who like key parts but they are also dislike key parts, in particular the mandate. there is the crux of the problem. so in terms of being able to fix that before the election, i don't think it's going to happen. that being said, i think it's really difficult for a republicans going out there and crowing any type of victory because the american public when it comes to the specific pieces of healthcare reform do like it. i think in that case it can blow up in republican faces. >> i totally disagree. if you look at the poll. you are looking at the cross paths that talk about specific parts of it. the total bill, let's talk about independents it has unfavorability of 73%. only 59% of the democrats in this poll support the individual
4:30 pm
mandate. people have spoken. in terms of public opinion this thing is a very big loser for the president. so i think what really has to happen right now is to allow both sides to come back to the table and address the fact that we have rising costs. that is what hurts most americans, not access to healthcare. 16%, while a large number, not covered still not our biggest problem. the fact that it bankrupts people that have it. >> heather: what chris was referencing, more than half of americans oppose the law, most do like a lot of provisions in it like we addressed. how does either political party deal with that? >> let's take the whole cake because we like the icing. let's accept the whole bill. >> that is not correct. here the political problem. when it comes to particular pieces of legislation, american people do like certain things. they do like they can stay on
4:31 pm
until until 26. people with preexisting conditions can get healthcare coverage. so if those are jeopardized it poses a serious political problem not just for democrats but in particular for republicans. last time i checked they didn't have a solution to either one of those. >> we have discussed elements popular, having kids being covered up until 26. when you talk about specific one. preexisting conditions, only 50,000 americans have benefited from that up to this point. 2.5 million young people were going to have. >> wait, wait. >> only 1.5 million have actually taken advantage of it. >> when it comes to preexisting conditions, it's not about the number that currently may be using it. it's the concern that many americans have that their family or family members may need it down the road. that is why it's important. >> resolution come from allowing insurance companies that have
4:32 pm
been empowered to operate as cartels to have to compete against state lines. how counter intuitive that rations care to senior citizens yet mandates care to young people. >> heather: that will have to be the last word. we appreciate the debate. we can all agree this is pivotal week for president obama. this was a key signature policy achievement. we'll see what the supreme court decides. >> gregg: an inspiring event celebrating ten years of motivating people with disabilities. thousands of athletes participating in the achilles hope and possibility five-mile race. that is new york city central park. including the freedom team of wounded veterans. >> reporter: a total of 5700 able-bodied and disabled runners
4:33 pm
and cyclists raced alongside each other. 40 members of achilles team of wounded veterans are inspiring us all after competing in the five-mile race. freedom team provides injured servicemen and women the opportunity to train and compete in mainstream races throughout the country. they traveled from walter reed national medical center where they are undergoing treatment for their injuries. most of them are running on prosthetics or racing in hand cranked cycles. >> we have to push each other to do better. if you give up somebody motd elevates you from behind. >> it's fantastic. people that say, you can't run, they do run. people that say, they can't do, do. it's inspiring. >> reporter: organizers say this
4:34 pm
race is a chance for the veterans to be active, to heal and some volunteers raced in memory of fallen members, as well. >> and family, my mother i was riding for. >> reporter: events name is taken from a book. i am the central jogger the story of hope and possibility. that is exactly what all these people are doing. >> gregg: great story. >> heather: thousands gathering in arizona to protest a tent city being used to house prison inmates. inhumane or sensible? a fair and balanced debate. >> and president obama ordering up to 800,000 young illegal immigrants to remain in the u.s. will this stand up in court? our legal analysts are here.

>>. >> heather: in arizona a massive rally calling for the closure of a so-called at any time city that acts as a jail. it was set up by sheriff joe apio. conditions at the facility are inhumane but the sheriff says he has no problem housing inmates pointing out some members of the military they live in tents. convicted criminals don't deserve any better. joining us live peter jackson and mike gallagher. thank you both for joining us. >> mike, i want to start with you, you spent the night at the facility. set the scene for us. >> i was actually at the border. i was at the arizona-mexico border and i spent the night thursday night. interviewed ranchers and talked
4:40 pm
to a lot of residents along the southern arizona border who are so appreciative of the sheriff joe apio. what is happening to him is reprehensible and politically driven. he is up for reelection and everybody from george soros to president obama to laraza have targeted him for defeat. this is guy that represents this kind of common sense. our soldiers stay in tents. the tent city concept is nothing new. it's only an issue because political opponents wanted to stop him. frankly as i was there at the border. you talk to the people who are dealing with problems of illegal immigration and quality of life. they love sheriff joe. this man --. >> heather: he has been unprecedented foiv terms. going back to conditions tend city, men and women both held here, 2,000 inmates, what do you think bit? >> i go back to my sunday school
4:41 pm
lessons. this is just inhumane. you don't put people outside in the arizona eat. give them edible food. this is just something to me that no one deserves. no human being deserves to be treated this way. also i think we have to begin to reposition this conversation on illegal immigration because the fact is up to 45% of those who are illegal immigrants in america were admitted as students, as visitors as workers and they are not trapped. while i think, you know look, this is political time. no question about that. but we've got to look at the fact that we as americans are human beings cannot afford to treat people in a mean-spirited way. >> heather: on the other hand, on the other side of the coin, if you live there and you commit a crime, you know where you might be going. is it an incentive. don't commit a crime. >> frankly no one is dying of
4:42 pm
dehydration in these tents. these people are being fed. for crying out loud, this is not a new concept. it fascinates people on on the left have so many concerns about the so-called and supposed inhumanity of people living in tents. they don't seem to worry about the inhumanity that those prisoners exercise to get them in the tend jails in the first place. it's extraordinary to me the tactics that the left uses to try to change the targeted. >> really i don't think it as a left, right argument, look at it as right or wrong. i want to see people treated fairly. i go back to sunday school, folks that treat people, the way we wanted to be treated. i don't the way we treat our troops. have you been down to the arizona heat. it's too hot and people get
4:43 pm
dehydrated. >> nobody is getting sick or dying. >> mike, we don't know that. and other church members are out there and they are saying this is not the way you treat people. i'm going to stay right there. >> heather: goes back to my previous question, is it not an incentive to not commit a crime? >> no, it's not. when we look at hurricane katrina, it was rebuilt on the backs of those people that were brought into america. 100,000 workers were brought into the united states, this is documented. no, no. >> excuse me, you are suggesting. >> mike, come on. we can't speaking to the at the same time. >> katrina was rebuilt by prisoners? are you kidding? >> what we do, we are very selective about this conversation. the fact that you brought -- we
4:44 pm
exploited 1.6 million people from the gulf. what these people could have gotten jobs but we didn't give them we gave 100,000 jobs we imported from outside the country. come on, mike, let's be fair. >> i'm a little baffled, but, excuse me, you went back to liberal talking points. you are talking about, excuse me. you are interrupted go me. you cannot possibly invoke katrina as a reason. >> yes, i can. >> the sheriff joe has a record in arizona because a bunch of bleeding hearts are worried how criminals are treated and you wanted to give them cable tv and three square meals and hot tub on sunday. >> we don't need to bring in president bush. we have to have an even playing field. if we are going to talk, mike, please. let's have a fair conversation
4:45 pm
here. the fact is, 45%. >> heather: last comment. >> 45% of those people who are illegal immigrants in america are visitors, workers and students, what are we going to do about them. >> heather: we were talking about the jail facility. >> i don't think you should treat anybody that way. we went about mitt romney putting his dog on the top of his car zbleets. >> heather: the debate will continue for another day. >> gregg: it comes back to the dog on the car.

>>. >> gregg: welcome back. president obama sparking a huge controversy by circumventing, arguably, congress, and allowing up to 1.4 million young illegal aliens, immigrants to remain in the u.s. the move may help him win votes in the election, but there may be a hitch. is it illegal? that is the question. this morning, our fox and
4:50 pm
friends, kansas secretary of state says the president's edict can't stand because it ignores earlier law passed by congress. >> in 1996 congress passed a law. they were frustrated with the clinton administration not deporting enough people. they passed a law when you come into contact with an illegal alien, if you are federal agent you must put the person in deportation proceedings. the obama administration order a little while ago says you have to take these people, instead of putting them deportation proceedings you have to say congratulations you are eligible and free to go. >> gregg: what does this mean for the president's immigration policy? legal panel, bob massey and mercedes. i e-mailed him all the time because i think she smart guy and he knows a lot of stuff. i get his advice from kovich on
4:51 pm
legal or illegal. what do you think? >> the department of homeland security. we are not changing immigration laws. this is a policy directive. there is cases that said agencies can't have policy choices. what is this policy says? they would stop the deport iag. it doesn't granted permanent status to these individuals and there is specific criteria, 1.4 million individuals. here is the criterion. they have to have entered the u.s. before 18 years of age. they must not have any criminal activity whatsoever. they have resided here five years. they can't be over the age of 30. so these are the criterion. it doesn't give them permanent status but a policy directive. as i said. agencies like the department of homeland security have the discretion of these types of policies in place. >> gregg: whenever mercedes puts
4:52 pm
on her glasses. [ laughter ] >> gregg: i know that she is really serious and she knows what she is talking about. got that librarian look. put on your glasses and tell me what the truth is. >> it sounded very good closing argument, however, the bottom line, you cannot repeal a congressional act. in essence, that is exactly what the impact will be. we know politically why this is happening for what you said in the introduction. i have to tell you, gregg, living in a city, i'm a little torn in that seven days a week in las vegas it frustrates me to go around major highways and streets where there is illegals that are hired to do jobs. i want those people registered. i want their tax revenue. i want some controls, but you cannot repeal congressional act
4:53 pm
from 1996. you cannot do that. >> gregg: mercedes, he's got a point, doesn't he? >> he does but it boils down to semantics. is this a change or is it policy directive? department of homeland security says it's not a change whatsoever or rather repealing of a prior law, this is strictly a policy directive. we haven't done anything under the obama administration that runs afoul of the law. it boils down to semantics. this issue may obviously boiling up and may come into some formal process at some point where it will be determined one way or the other whether it's a policy directive or a change in the law. as it stands now, they say absolutely not. >> you know, one of the things that concerns me in the criteria there is no past criminal acted. first of all they got here illegally. so infrin sick in them getting here, they are in violation of law in the united states.

5:10 pm
risk. >> the high park fire just west of ft. collins in colorado also, continues to be a problem. last week it was sick 60 percent contained and now it is only 45 percent containment. hot temperatures are feeding the flames and prompting the possibility of losing more homes. and 1,000 evacuations in the last couple of days. >> a difficult firefight the night before last and yesterday morning with firefighters putting fire on the ground behind bulldozers and crews and following up with engines to make sure the fire was checked. we have had a reasonable level of success. based on that level success, the firefighters are hoping to let more and more evacuees back home the next couple of days so go news there on that fire. but they are still feeling the heat. >>heather: thank you from the west coast newsroom. >>gregg: colorado police also

58 percent. far more than any other age group. and now, dominic is a financial advisor and president of diversified financial consultants and joins us. thank you for joining us. that is a big drop. and before we talk about specifically what it means for generation x, what does it mean for the economy as a whole? >>guest: well, look, you look at these people and how they live their lives each day and how they spend their money and they are behind the 8 ball. how live your financial life dictates how you spend the money in this generation was at a point in their life where they were buying homes and investing in the stock market, probably at the worst time. >>heather: so, in terms of homeownership what does it mean? >>guest: looking at buying in 25 or 30 years old, this group was buying their houses and
5:18 pm
taking out huge mortgages at top of the real estate market in the last five years, so, fast forward and real estate markets have corrected depending without live, 25 to 70 percent, and they are at or underwater in the equity in their home so you look at their financial well-being, value of their home and the value of their investments that represents for most the bulk of their worth and one of the major pieces is very substantial. >>heather: compared to the baby boom generation? >>guest: sure, that is a perfect example. we look at them and they bought their houses in the 60's, 70's, and early 80's so although they lived through the same cycle as this x generation they bought their homes as substantially lower prices, probably paid off their mortgages or pretty close, financed a lot less so they is gone from the same cycle but they still have a very substantial amount of net worth not homes and the baby boom generation bought at the top of
5:19 pm
the market. >>heather: and their retirement and investment portfolio? >>guest: well, same problem. so, you look at baby boom generation and they have had investment portfolio growing for 3 or 40 years and they stayed out of stocks and the garbage stocks and they have a more balanced portfolio and maybe half or 60 percent or 70 percent of the portfolio is fixed income. so they went through the stock market but did not have the risk and exposure to stocks and aggressive stocks. the x generation aggressive by nature invested in nasdaq and they had a longer timeline here to retirement so they had more aggressive portfolios and they took the brunt of the hit. >>heather: what does it take for them to recover? >>guest: it really has to be fiscally more responsible going forward, so be more disciplined about saving, much more
5:20 pm
disciplined about not running up the credit card debt, and if you can save on a pretax basis, even better, yet. the key is, they have host this person year, it will year window in the stock market, where the returns are zero and more important, they have lost 10 years, 15 years of potential growth, the difference for them is they could have half as much at retirement as, say, a baby boom generation so you have to be much more disciplined and careful and physically responsible. >>heather: the demographic impacts all us? >>guest: yes because they have to work longer, they may not be able to retire and how they move in our economy, can they sell their home and go to another part of the state, can they save enough and they lost 10 or 15 years and the ability to save their kids' education, so this is going to affect you will of us and their ability to recover, it will take a long time. >>heather: so, save, safe, save. thank you very much, dominic, we

>>gregg: the hispanic voters are likely to play a very junior factor if this year's presidentialal election, both president obama and governor romney were in florida this past week wooing members of that fast-growing population. >> for two years this president had huge majorities in the house and senate. he was free to pursue any policy he pleased. but he did nothing to advance a permanent fix for our broken immigration system. nothing. instead, he failed to act until facing a tough re-election. and trying to secure your vote. >> we are a nation of climbers and entrepreneurs. the hardest working people on earth. and no one personifies these american values, these american traits, more than latino
5:29 pm
community. that is the essence of who you are. >>gregg: let's bring in our campaign insiders, doug schoen, former pollster for bill clinton and pat caddell, a fox news contributor former pollster for jimmy carter, and john leboutillier, former republican congressman from new york. doug, you know, i didn't think this was a big deal until i started looking at the poll numbers. i am really stunned by this. look at these numbers in the swing states latino votes. >> those five states could well spell the difference. right now the polls show the vote in those states in the margin of error and the hispanic vote right now is giving president obama either the slight lead he enjoys in some of the states or keeps him even.
5:30 pm
bottom line the hispanic vote is critical. >> this is politically important. i have to say, i am surprised that romney didn't take a little bit more of a tact which, here --. >>gregg: he spoke in orlando in front of the same latino group. >> he preceded the president the day before. >>gregg: and he had a grand opportunity. >> i would have said here is his thank unemployment, hispanic youth, here is this. hispanics, they are not getting the men dream. and i would have gone after president and said now he think he can buy the hispanic vote or give you one thing and you will fall for it. it would have been tougher because the administration has done nothing for hispanics and i would have said, they do not treat them like americans you are not americans you are a vote are bloc. he has to do something to get -- if he cannot get the votes he has to lower the enthusiasm. >>gregg: what should governor
5:31 pm
romney do? >> what he has done is carrying the baggage he accrued in the primaries, the self-deportation line, the hardest right position he could take in the primaries and what has happened he is so afraid of being accused of being a flip-flopper by the right he will not modify his position. now --. >>gregg: but he staked himself out. all on the children of illegal immigrant there is in political cost to echoing what obama says and say i want these people to be american citizens. not just the ones with advance the degrees but any who keep their record clean, they can be citizens of this country. >> i think he needs to endorse marco rubio's version of the dream act which does most if not all of what john was saying. pat is right. he could attack the president for being politically cynical. but, if the president's position on gay marriage can evolve i
5:32 pm
would say given statistics we were talking about governor romney's position can do the same. >> he needs to embrace rubio's dream act which is a positive plan the it could push him more to rubio for vice president. >>gregg: but it is nine days sin the announcement and romney still has not said what his position is on the children of illegals and he is stuck on it, he has had a bad week because of it, and he needs to get a position, and a positive position, and put it out there. >> and the other thing, look, the hispanic thing is also a turn out and they are getting killed by the committee. worst than almost any other group. and that is what they need to do. >>greg: and the polls are all over the place, here we have the
5:33 pm
pew research poll, obama 50 percent and romney 46 percent. and another, 47 and 44. and the bloomberg poll which i don't understand. 53 and 40. and, then, the razzy poll which has romney in front of the president. >> look, we have different assumptions about town out in both polls. one is likely voters and another is all voters and the other thing is there are more democrats in the bloomberg poll than there are in the rasmussen poll, more college educated people. bottom line it is a race that is unfollowed, probably very close, it is not plus 13, i doubt it is minus five, i think it is close to tie. >> i think the president is slightly with all registered voters and probably tied with likely voters but let me say something. that is why we are here. there are certain polls you
5:34 pm
should throw out. i don't think doug and i as pollsters i would not have put the 13-point poll up. just because you spend money on something and you get a bad poll, you know what? we say we have poll that is accurate with plus or minus 3 percent and 95 out of 100 times, well, gregg there is the 5 the time when it is off, and you make that judgment. viewers, we will tell you which ones to follow. >>gregg: and another poll, 52 percent think the economy will be the same or weaker one year from now. john? isn't that critical in this election? all of course. this speaks to why we are waiting for one of these two guys, and it ought to be governor romney, to come out on that issue on what he is going to do, to revise the american economy. it doesn't have to be -- he has a 59-point plan the no one knows
5:35 pm
what that is. he needs three or four points to sell each day. not just trash obama. here is what i will do, fix this, do that, undo that, boom, boom, boom. >> good idea to have 52 points in the economy plan? who thought that was a good idea? >> this is daring to be cautious. rather than running on four principle, four policies, four core ideas he puts 2 -- 52 or 54 or 59. all dumb. all dumb. >> dumb and dumber. >> the president's message is from theme to theme each week, and romney, who should be trying to take advantage on the economy. >>gregg: stick around. >>heather: coming up, newly elected congressman barber kicking off his term continuing a tradition started by hid -- by

5:42 pm
and now we will bring in our campaign insiders, doug schoen, pat caddell and john leboutillier. you did not know it was about voter suppression. >> so happy to learn this from the former speaker, a crazy rational for what going on here. holder, the white house, has botched this thing and taken something that wasn't in the campaign, and allowed it. they have pushed it themselves. >> i want to say what a national treasure nancy pelosi is because she gives us so were all the time to do. she just keeps giving. a gift that keep giving. the problem the white house has is they have now made a decision to allow the rest of the country that wasn't watching fox and wasn't being told about "fast and furious," now know about the issue and they used executive privilege and they have left the suspicion that there must be, they must be hiding something.
5:43 pm
when --. >>gregg: i would tell my clients still behind bars, that you do not hide anything if you have nothing to hide. >> what pat was suggesting is, there could be something to hide and i think there is certainly a method to the former speaker's madness, political madness, that is, in the sense that bottom line, why would she say something as preposterous as this if this wasn't something to hide. idea of executive privilege condemned with contempt puts at issue four square that has not been four scare, and we have to raise the profile of an issue --. >>gregg: a battle between justice and issa and now the white house. >> this just linkers to use
5:44 pm
executive privilege. does it not pass the smell test. and the other problem, it is really stirring up the right because the nra which has been behind a lost this issue, a lot of them believe that this was about gun control. there are memos out and, therefore, they are really stoking the fire. remember how important gun control can be, it is the issue that john kerry believes defeated him in 2004. >> i am stunned over how in a tight election where you cannot afford any mistakes the obama white house has had the national security leak thing, and now we have this, and waivering voters may look in the fall and an embattled president cannot run anything right and all of it together may tip the balance toward romney. >>gregg: i want to look ahead to this coming week, the supreme court will issue a ruling on health care. i love your predictions, lets me have them. >> i believe on thursday by 6-3 vote the supreme court will
