7:03 am

7:06 am
7:07 am
one month from today, actual presidential voting will begin at the iowa caucuses. by the end of 2016, americans will elect a new president. but we still have miles to go in this campaign and we have an ace to guide us this morning. "face the nation" host john dickerson is also cbs news political director and "wall street journal" peggy noonan is a cbs news contributor and the author of "the time of our lives." nancy cordes has traveled the country covering the campaign. welcome here on this new year's day. let me ask peggy, what does this signify now that we have gone to a new year in the politics and president? >> it means things finally get really and substantially exciting. we are, right now, going from the past 18 months where everybody said, i got a gut
7:08 am
going to happen, there is a new poll, dah, dah, dah. now things are really going to happen. the voters are going to get together and there is really going to be caucuses in iowa. new hampshire is going to vote soon after. we are actually going to find out if the donald trump phenomenon is real and lasting, and if it is not, we are going to find out what is coming up and who is going to take this thing over. >> nancy, february 1st is iowa. february 9th is new hampshire. this is the latest these caucuses and primaries have been in 20 years. what does that mean? >> it means that not only is the presidential race kind of frozen until we see what happens with donald trump, if he can maintain this lead, but alsowill races below the presidential election is frozen as well. house republican candidates are waiting to see how they are going to run their races. the interesting thing you ask
7:09 am
republican strategist, they have no idea what is going to happen. we have never seen anything like this before so they don't know if trump's lead will entirely disappear when folks in iowa and new hampshire head to the polls. >> john, haven't some of the polling out of iowa show there is extreme fluidity in the race? >> there always is. the cliche about iowa is organize, organize, organize, and get hot at the end. we are at the end now. we are in the moment of excitement for underdogs because this is what they have been saying. they said after the new year, then my moment will come as the voters you say norah, being very fluid, will turn to me when they are going to pick a president. remember, rick santorum out of nowhere to win the iowa caucuses. the challenges for that underdog, sticking with oogiowa, the last two winners of the iowa caucuses have not gone on. happened before, george bush won
7:10 am
won it and didn't go out in '88. >> but it's suggesting on the democratic side, we have seen surprises of barack obama in 2008 and john kerry in 2004. a late starter to organize and kick off the momentum then. >> john kerry the long hot candidate. all of those one or two or three in the polls, they won't say this outloud but say i'd like to be like john kerry who was 3% in the polls and in part because of his rivals went after each other he rose when they fell and that is the hope for a lot of those republican candidates. >> the other thing that concerns me when we get to the convention, if, in fact, it is hillary clinton who will she choose as a running mate and if, in fact, she is the nominee. will republicans feel like they have to choose a woman as a running mate? >> i don't know.
7:11 am
conservatives and republicans. i remember the dream team was marco rubio of florida and john kasich of ohio. it was like florida and ohio, my gosh, put that together. i'm not sure they will feel they have to have a woman, but i am sure that conversation will come up. why wouldn't it? and there is a lot of good women to choose from there. >> who are those republican women that would be at the top of the list? >> well, i think the first person you will have to think of is carly fiorina who is not huge in the polls right now, but who has made a rather valiant try and who is, on some level, won some of the heart, i think, of the party. so she would certainly be first consideration, i would think. i would think nikki haley and governor -- >> kelly ayotte? >> you have a bench there and a
7:12 am
>> could we look at this day and figure out what the great debate is about for america in 2016? >> i think you have to assume it's going to be a mix of economy and foreign policy. you know, in 2008, obviously, the economy. the economy and that really helped barack obama, but i think we are going to see this ping-ponging back and forth over the course of the next year between economic concerns and then when something happens, hopefully, it doesn't, but when we have terrible things happen either here at home or abroad like san bernardino, that is coming to the forefront. when you pole republican voters who you think is strongest on the economy, they say donald trump. when you ask them who do you think is strongest on foreign policy, they say donald trump. at least for right now, he is sort of rising above everyone. and normally you would think, okay, he has got this huge lead he is up by 15 points.
7:13 am
well in those primaries, but he doesn't really have a traditional organization, he doesn't have people, staffers working for him in these states, precinct captains, things like that. >> the alternative narrative, draw that, which is given republicans changed, not only the number of debates this election cycle, they made less. they changed the primary schedule. they made it more compact. how will that change and impact a potential trump candidacy or others taking trump out? >> well, let's go to fewer number of debates. if it's true that donald trump doesn't do as well in debates as he does in other venues because he is not as detailed-oriented and lesser for a candidate to not get hi shars of maritime to get in front of the voters. you would think they would want more debates a chance to shine and take him down. that's the way in which it's changed. i think another way what will be interesting to watch, we are talking about the vice
7:14 am
possible that because of the way the delegates are proportioned and if the field stays large enough, you could, this is wishful thinking on the part of all political reporters but you could have a situation you get nominee is not -- >> yeah. >> then you have an exciting situation of republican party hasn't had since '76 with reagan and ford. you have a situation you go to cleveland and we don't know. >> there are people who have watched the unfolding in 2015 and they say that ted cruz really studied past presidential campaigns, has been a real student of it. everybody think he is a very bright guy and the lessons he has learned in terms of organization. >> organization. and also tacktical restraint. we saw him stay away from donald trump in a lot of fights he could have had. and that worked well for him. so he had not only the organization, but also one of the things they -- the
7:15 am
before is the thing they say they have learned is not to swing at every pitch which is to say you need some discipline and the fact that cruz is able to stay out of a lot of those fights, that may be the thing that really benefits him. >> donald trump was not in school that day, was he? >> he swings at pitches, the umpire, the opposing team. >> one of the amazing things about trump is that discipline is exactly the word. when you get in and you start to win, you start to look like you're winning, you start to look like you're really possible, if you are, if you've got your head screwed on right, you develop discipline. you show respect for everybody by being disciplined. you can have colorful programs and colorful ideas, dramatic ones but you put them forward in a thoughtful and we can talk about this way and you're not unnecessarily insulting. it is amazing to me that donald trump has -- or someone around
7:16 am
the kind of discipline that a winner must have. >> who is that person who could do that? i don't know who that person could possibly be. >> other than donald trump. >> that is the answer but i don't see how you do it without discipline. if it goes for the convention, a fight of a hand-to-hand fight on the convention floor is about discipline and having -- you really need it. >> peggy, thank you. john, nancy, thank you so much. las vegas is battling to heat things up in 2016. strip. sin city is luring the next generation of gamblers by rolling the dice on a new era. ben tracy got a look at what could be vegas' best chance for change. >> reporter: las vegas as we know it was built on the back of the one-armed bandit. slot machines with their 60% profit margin are cash cows.
7:17 am
put them out to pasture. >> 45 and under are not going to play slot machines. they are just not. >> reporter: if he sounds like a guy with something new to sell, well, he is. >> we are going into a brand-new world. >> reporter: greg heads one of the companies that are betting on a very different kind of gambling. >> welcome to vegas pinball! >> reporter: a casino that looks much more like an arcade and a nightclub, filled with games that require skill, not just games of chance. this is much more like a video game than gambling to me. >> yes, it does, doesn't it? i'm fighting for my life over here right now. i want to turn a casino into where you have a fighting chance to win some money. use your skill. shoot a target. >> reporter: i can't imagine that your sales pitch to the casinos, they don't want a fighting chance to give money to people. >> the base will change. as you get older and evolve you
7:18 am
generation coming? >> reporter: that generation is the millennials. they head to las vegas in droves and head past the casino and into nightclubs. just 63% of millennials who visited las vegas in 2014 gambled, compared to 78% of their parents' generation and 87% of their grandparents. >> young people come to vegas for nightclubs and partying and dancing and no longer for gambling. you always have to keep your eye on the prize. >> reporter: darian loewenstein is the steve marketing officer for gambling. >> reporter: you won $3.20! their idea is take the games people play on their smartphone an add gambling. you can also compete not against a dealer, but against your friends. >> as opposed to the focus of did i win or lose money, they start playing and get more invested in did i beat the boss? am i getting to the next level? you know? how am i doing at the game play
7:19 am
>> reporter: the flip side of that they are not realizing how much money they are losing? >> right. absolutely positive. >> reporter: a change in nevada gaming regulations in september now allows for skilled players to potentially win more money by advancing further into the game. but the downside is if you aren't good at the game, you could lose even more often than a game of chance. these new skill-based games are expected to hit casino floors this year. >> we are now treading into a new territory. and, again, we are trying to attract a different generation. they don't play poker or blackjack but they play arcade games. >> reporter: those slots, no matter how much manufacturers try to keep them relevant, may be on their final spin. >> ten years from now, those will be empty slot machines that dad used to play. >> reporter: for "cbs this morning," ben tracy, las vegas. >> not your grandma's vegas any more. there is a booming wine region already larger than napa valley

seth doane takes us to the vineyards of china. jill schlesinger is here and looks at the changes in the economy for 2016 and what it all means for your money. she made marathon history at 92. the inspiration that helped her cross the finish line. >> and this is what got you to the race? >> yeah. and then very fast things too. >> the news is back this morning right here on "cbs this morning."

7:30 am
would be the world's fifth largest consumer of wine but unbelievably it's the fifth largest producer of wine. the industry is growing fast. the desert in this part of china is being transformed. it's taking billions of gallons of water to irrigate these fields each year. and hundreds of millions of dollars of investment to make this china's wine country. >> i've been to every other wine region in the world and i thought the desert? impossible, right? unthinkable! but, boy! wine in the desert? it's a reality and it's a big reality. >> reporter: so big that wine expert and author karen mcneil knew she had to come to china. she was updating her book "the wine bible" writing for magazines and trying to understand these really new world wines. >> i taste 3,000 wines a year and have for 30 years.
7:31 am
>> that is a lot of wine. some woman has to do it! seth, don't try to take my job! >> reporter: just thinking, that is pretty good. >> so i think i have a good understanding of when a wine has potential and when it doesn't. >> reporter: we first met her in the tasting rooms where she kept taking notes. >> he never tasted a cabernet like this. >> reporter: wine importer hung re says china producers are now developing their own flavors, not just copying others. we are influenced by western and bringing back wine cultures. >> i thought one thing is buying all of the great wine in the world. that just takes money. but making wine takes expertise. >> reporter: seeing that took mcneil to the vineyards here where she toured. >> what is your total production? how many bottles? >> reporter: 60,000 bottles each year.
7:32 am
sometimes right from the barrel. >> 2013 a great vintage. >> reporter: if the name doesn't sound familiar, it will. >> oh, man that is really good. our grandchildren will probably notice, as they know every other wine region in the world. >> reporter: there are about here. by 2020 they plan to have more than 160,000 acres. that is more than three times amount in the napa valley. napa did it in a century. here, a decade. >> it's fruity. not as complex as french champagne. >> reporter: this is part of a 28 million dollar coinvestment between the chinese company and luxury goods giant lvmh.
7:33 am
of money here is a big thumb's up in terms of its confidence about the chinese market. >> so we start from scratch and we build up the winery, the vineyards. everything. >> reporter: this is the general manager here. he is chinese, but his english has the slightest french accent. >> i learned while making friends. so i want to bring this affair in china. >> reporter: out in the fields, he showed us there are very specific challenges here. >> we have to bury the wines every year, every winter, and to bury the wines -- >> reporter: you're covering them? >> cover all of the wineries with dirt. >> reporter: so protect them from the wind? >> to protect from the wind and coat. >> reporter: covering the vines each winter is done by hand, which drives up costs. then there is the question of sustain sustainability sustainability.
7:34 am
can all of these wines be sold? >> it is really a risky bet, but i think the chinese philosophy has been built it and they will come, and if you build it well, they will come. so we will just have to see. >> reporter: her journey to china in a word? karen mcneil says she is incredulous. >> you know, we thought we knew all of the great winery regions in the world, you know? we know bordeaux and napa and tuscany. the idea that somewhere in the chinese desert might be the next great wine region in the world? it's astounding. >> reporter: chinese wine producers are saying they are focusing first on selling to the domestic chinese market, but say down the road, you should expect to see chinese wines in the u.s. too. charlie? >> wine in china? they will try anything. >> something to think about. >> that was a great piece by seth. >> why can't with we make wine, they say. >> make wine? make happiness? >> and they do.
7:35 am
>> and they do. >> seth doane in beijing, things. americans believe they will be better in 2016. people are making finances a priority in their new year's resolution. the top three goals? saving more. spending less. and paying off debt. cbs news business analyst jill schlesinger is here how to make that happen. how do we make that happen, jill? >> think those three goals are pretty good goals because they are the basic concepts of all financial planning. obviously, saving more and paying down the credit card debt and living within your means are lofty goals. another part of this which is paying attention and being engaged. whether that means figuring out which app to download on your phone or which investment is going to be the best for your 401(k), we really want people to focus on this, especially now that it feels like the recession is behind us. time to normalize our lives. >> what one that the recession is behind us is what the fed's decision on the interest rates. how do you think that affects
7:36 am
>> this is going to be a huge year for investors, because as the federal reserve continues to increase interest rates, markets are going to react. and, right now, based on the futures, that is the bond market, it's predicting four rate increases this year of a quarter point each. we end the year 1% higher rates. great news for savers. maybe you can get some ambassador cd rates but not good news for borrowers who may see the cost of loans start to increase. for investors i think it is a dicey year, though. >> if you have a mortgage, what should you do? >> if you have a mortgage you should be psyched because you have a nice 30-year fixed rate mortgage. that is terrific. if you have an justifiableadjustable rate mortgage this is key. as the rates start to go higher your cost will increase. rates are low now so now may be a good time to adjust that adjustable rate mortgage into a
7:37 am
no concern if you go from 4 to 4.5%. we want to make people understand what the next 30 years of payments will look like. >> i never thought an ajustifiable rateadjustable rate mortgage was a good thing. >> if you know you're leaving within five to seven years, fantastic. i'm going to a different place. i'm a doctor. i'm going to be mobile. i'm not staying in this house. that is fine. but for most people, a fixed rate. >> is this a good year to buy a house if you're thinking about buying one? >> i think this is the year more people are able to buy a house. yes, i do. look. we had a problem last year. we didn't have a lot of houses for sale. the inventory was quite low. houses coming on to the market now for 2016 should be good news and hopefully prices stay reasonable and with rates low i think a good thing for most homeowners. >> what about irs changes for retirement in 2016? >> no changes. still at 18,000. how about that? a lot of people said to me they didn't move it higher?
