it is wet out there. it is causing a lot of problems. rain is moving up the coast making for freezing rain. we have freezing rain advisories up and down the coast from philadelphia all the way up to gan bore bangor. the worst is in philadelphia where the delaware river, they are shutting bridges down to salt them so it has been accident-prone out there this morning. this is the system. here is a look at the radar and satellite. you can see this is moving up the kwoeft.coast. . fr seahawks. . . good morning. 6:09. waking up to a little showery activity across the extreme north bay. foggy conditions. as we zoom in ukiah, ft. bragg, over towards chico, expecting some showers. a lot will stay across north bay. san francisco, points north.

along with him, are the party of the rich. it certainly seems when you look at this tax plan right, it's tax cuts for the middle class paid for by tax hikes on the wealthy in some form or another. i just am with you, it is hard to imagine this republican congress going along. >> it is not an election year but we're getting close. folks are lining up. of course we heard mitt romney the other day make all the right sounds for a guy who wants to run again. even as some republican doubters have stepped forward, what might his thinking be here? >> oh i think this is -- i think sometimes we don't -- we ignore the personal aspect of these things. i think for mitt romney it is a personal failure that he didn't succeed at this. i think he believes he should be president. i think he believes he should have won in 2012 and i think he thinks that he's going to do whatever it takes. he's never failed at anything else in life in his mind before. this is something he's not attained and he's young enough he's got the energy and he wants to do it. i think he thinks that if you look around at the field, which

includes jeb bush, that none of them have any foreign policy chops. if this is a national security election mitt romney believes he has the most -- the best message of any of the other republican candidates to take on hillary clinton. we'll see if republican activists agree with him. >> all right chuck todd. thanks very much. also coming up on "meet the press," chuck has a u.s. exclusive interview with gerard biard, the editor in chief of "charlie hebdo"," reacting to the terror plots here and at home. by the end of the night, we'll know who will be facing off in super bowl xlix. will it be the packers or the colts, the seahawks or the patriots and will several nfl scandals overshadow the excitement of today's games. nbc's ron mott has more. >> reporter: championship sunday is here. and like much of the 2014 nfl season so, too are

off-the-field headlines. >> on the field, nfl is as strong as ever. off the field issues feel like they are starting to fade but there are bigger problems. >> reporter: rape charges in the past week charges his attorney denies. another aerial protest today taking on the nfl commissioner. as for the games themselves new england patriots quarterback tom brady and coach bill belichick, the most victorious one-two combo ever are vying for a staggering sixth super bowl appearance. they'll face rising star andrew luck of the colts whose team last week dominated the man he replaced in indianapolis peyton manning. in seattle, the defending champion seahawks and quarterback russell wilson will call on their 12th man to help them beat the green bay packers. the fans so raucous, they've set off earth shaking tremors. one seahawk running back marshawn lynch, lets his play do the talking. he's been fined heavily for not talking to reporters so now he indulges them. barely with quotes like this. >> i'm thankful. i'm thankful. i'm thankful.

i'm thankful. thank you. >> what about packers quarterback aaron rodgers mystery call. >> new york bozo. new york bozo. new york bozo. >> did you guys hear that? our guys don't know what that means either. >> reporter: what each team knows -- one more victory means a trip to the super bowl. for "today," ron mott nbc news. >> of course nbc is your home for the super bowl this year two weeks away on february 1st. >> i still want to hear what that call meant. >> for that we are all thankful. >> amen. flounow to a newly ordained priest who was probably listening closely to what pope francis had to say during mass this morning. 80-year-old rae 0 80-year-old rita lucy took part in the mass. it won't be recognized by the chump but that's not stopping her from answering her calling.

>> rita lucy is a dynamo. >> are you believe 63 years? >> reporter: yes, she's 80 years old and has been married 63 years. >> she's a sneaker and she likes to find new things. >> reporter: yesterday she did something radical, she poked a well manicured eye in the finger of the catholic church and became a priest. >> is becoming a priest as much as a political statement as it is a religious one? >> yes. you really hit the nail on the head. >> isn't it wonderful? >> reporter: there are 150 other women in the u.s. alone who have taken the same step. many were previously nuns. some like mrs. lieu >> lewis:lieu lieuucy are not only female they're married. >> how does this work to have a husband? >> well i'm not going to get

rid of him after 63 years. >> this is our calling. >> reporter: but nbc religion consultant george weigel says these women have gotten it all wrong. >> women have been running the catholic church in the united states for the past 200 years. >> he's nuts because women clearly haven't been running the catholic church. bishops are running the catholic church. don't tell me that they really are respecting women because they're not. >> reporter: even pope francis celebrated around the world for his more inclusive sense of the church has said women's ordination is off the table. >> even popes can be mistaken. >> reporter: as for mrs. >> do you think the church is capable of the kind of change your advocate? >> either the church will die or this will occur. in my lifetime probably not, but there's always hope. >> amen. >> for today, cynthia mcfadden, orlando, florida. >> up next, talk about shaking it off. how one cop's lip cinching has
