morning." all eyes are on florida's presidential candidates shrugging it out. >> mitt romney took on newt gingrich in the state where we are likely to see the biggest battle yet in this campaign. cbs news political correspondent is in florida this morning, scene of last night's debate. >> reporter: good morning to the west coast. romney had a lot to lose last night. he saw his lead just evaporate because newt gingrich had two strong debate performances in south carolina. he went on the offensive. >> i learned something from that last contest in south carolina, and that was i had incoming from all directions, was overwhelmed with a lot of the attacks. i'm not going to sit back and get attacked day in and day out without returning fire. >> reporter: romney immediately went after gingrich saying he couldn't win. >> i don't think we can possibly retake the white house if the person who's leading our party is the person who was working pfor the chief lobbyist of freddie mac. >> reporter: he was arguing that gingrich was just another washington insider who lobbied on behalf of a mortgage giant

that helped trigger the housing crisis. gingrich took issue with that. >> you've been walking around the state saying things that are untrue. >> reporter: he said his records from his freddie mac contract released just before the debate back him up. >> i've had a very long career of trying to represent the people of georgia and as speaker the people of the united states. i think it's pretty clear to say that i have never, ever gone and done any lobbying. >> reporter: as for records, romney also was pressed on his tax returns which he's releasing today. romney made more than $40 million over the past two years, almost all of it from investments. he paid 6.2 million in federal taxes during that time, and he gave 7 million to charity, including 4 million to the latter day saints church. his tax rate 13.9% in 2010. >> you'll see how complicated taxes can be, but i pay all the taxes that are legally required and not a dollar more. >> reporter: the debate was

mainly between romney and gingrich and lacked fireworks of previous debates. that gave former pennsylvania senator rick santorum an opening to attack them both. >> there is no difference between president obama and these two gentlemen. >> reporter: while texas congressman ron paul continued to insist he could lead the party forward. >> you talk about electability. why don't we take on the first three states and take everybody 30 years and under. i'm doing pretty darn well. i'm winning that vote. >> reporter: now gingrich's entire campaign has been largely fueled by these debates. he finished fourth in iowa. there were no debates in two weeks leading up to the voting. in south carolina he had that dominant win with two debates going into that. so last night was a real opportunity for him to tee up florida. this is a key state. he really fell flat. instead it was romney, he was crisp, authoritative. i think it was probably his best performance yet. >> anything in these tax returns that will damage him in florida, jan? >> reporter: oh, charlie, we've just gotten our hands on them.

i finished up a call with romney's advisors. they had a conference call as they're trying to help journalists go through 500 pages of tax returns. you can be sure that we'll be spending the next day, two, three weeks trying to figure out what's in there, his investments, where did his money come from. already the democrats are on that call trying to make an issue out of it too. one of romney's advisors during the call said i just want to know there are 26 people from the chicago area listening in suggesting that the obama re-election team was monitoring that call. they would be ready to come out and attack. >> jan, thanks very much. tonight attention turns briefly from florida to washington. president obama delivers his state of the union address. it is his chance to set the stage for the rest of the presidential campaign. chief white house correspondent nor ra o'donnell joins us. what do we know as you get ready for this? what do we know about what the president is going to say that might lead to the beginning of

the campaign? >> reporter: well, good morning. advisors i've spoken with describe this as an incredibly ambitious speech. they know how high the stakes are. there will probably be no other speech this year where the president has the attention of tens of millions of americans where he can make his case for his vision in this election year. now the president's advisors say the title of this speech is an american built to last. the president will be building on the themes of a speech he gave in kansas just last month where he really addressed the issue of economic inequality. he talked about a make or break moment for the middle class. expect the president tonight to talk about taxing millionaires and billionaires more. he will talk about manufacturing, energy, skills for new workers, and a whole issue built around american values. so that's what this whole speech sort of sits on. he's going lay out a lot of thick policy proposals that he will lay out over the next three days when he makes stops to five different states putting sort of

more meat on the bones of what the president says tonight. >> so, nora, to that point. a lot of people will be looking to see whether this is a speech about policy or one for his re-election campaign. we'll guess how the white house will spin it. >> reporter: that's exactly right. it will definitely be very thick with policy, but make no mistake, this is a political speech in an election year where the president can speak directly to millions of americans, and he is going to draw distinctions with the republicans and he is also going to try to appeal to those independent voters who are overwhelmingly disa int appointed with the president. >> cbs will have live coverage and the republican response. it starts at 9:00 eastern. >> we want to get a perfect spekt tiff of the speech. >> good morning, charlie. >> paul ryan, the republican

congressman follows you. what account president say this evening that might bring paul ryan to work with him on issues that concern the country? >> what the president is going to lay out tonight, charlie, is the make or break moment for the middle class is a blueprint for how to build an economy that's built to last. we saw what happened when we had an economy built on bad debt, financial instruments. that didn't work. it caused a crash and we're still recovering from it. we know what we need to do here. we've had 22 straight months of private sector job growth. 2011 was the best job producing year. given the hole the recession caused we have so much more work to do. these are common sense ideas. investing in american manufacturing. making sure that we are seizing the new era of american energy. working on the skills and education for workers and renew american values. >> as you recite those i think you must know that speaker boehner has said this is a rehash and it will not fly in the congress. >> well, listen, speaker boehner, mr. ryan hopefully will

actually listen to the ideas tonight. these are ideas, many of them traditionally have been embraced by members of both parties that are common sense ideas. having the wealthy pay their fair share is something more and more republicans are actually gravitating to and invest where we need to. last year it was a tough year. a lot of gridlock. a lot of partisanship. we were able to pass a trade deal that enabled us to sell fords and chevys in south korea. we made some progress. there's no question that as the american people look in that chamber tonight, they don't want a repeat of last year. even though this is an election year, we have to find every opportunity to make progress, not just on the economy as a whole, but also specifically how do we strengthen the middle class. i think there are some areas we can work together. >> one issue will be tax reform. as you know, fairness has been a theme that the president has articulated in kansas. is an effective 14 or 15% tax rate that mitt romney has said

he paid your judgment of what is fair? >> well, listen, 47 more republican primaries and caucuses. they'll have their ability to weigh in on that question directly. it is an example of what warren buffet talked about, which was someone like him shouldn't be paying lesser tangs rate than his secretary. the president actually tonight charlie is going to lay out what he's described as the buffet rule in more detail about how that would work. so, listen, we want to reward entrepreneurs and wealth and success. that's what america's about. but as we look to how do we close our deficit, how do we invest in growing the middle class, we have to have a tax code that's more simple and more fair. you can't have people making 50, 60, 100, $200 million a year paying less effective tax rate. >> ronald regan made this notion are you better off than you were four years ago which is a question many americans might want to ask now. when you look at what's happened, can the american people look at four years of the obama administration and say

we're better off and we're prepared to have this election a referendum on president obama's performance rather than a referendum on our promises that we're making in the state of the union? >> well, listen, we're happy to have this a referendum on what we've done. let's remember, we were in something that rivaled the great depression. that wasn't just an accident. there were policies that caused it. so do you want to go back to those policies? do you want to let wall street write its own rules, have your entire tax and economic tax policies trickle down? there were policies that caused it. people don't want to go back to that. the question is do we want to continue to make the progress? 3 million jobs over the last 22 months, charlie. also the ideas the president has. how do we continue to grow economically? what lies underneath that? american manufacturing. american energy. the kind of skills and education the middle class needs. we're happy to have a debate

about what the president has done. we'll have a debate about the differences where we want to take the country and our eventual opponent. in the meantime there will be time for politics and elections. what the president is going to lay out tonight are very specific ideas, very specific ideas about how we can continue to make progress for the middle class and the economy. >> these are all important questions and we ought to debate them. i invite you to come to this table and engage the conversation about the important issues the american people will need to decide on in the coming election. david, thanks so much. >> hope to do that. health budget committee paul ryan, what the republicans are expecting. congressman, good morning. >> good morning, charlie. welcome on the new gig. >> thank you very much. that's what we daul around here, gig. let me just ask, did you hear what david said? do you expect that there is a willingness on the part of republicans to listen carefully and see the president in wanting to reform taxes, wanting to consider investments in the future might be common ground? >> well, i heard what he said and it sounds like we're going to get more of the same,

charlie. i think nora o'donnell pretty much pegged it. it's going to be a political speech. we've heard good speeches from the president before. we've heard the same kind of rhetoric before and look at the kind of results we're getting. it sounds like it's going to be a spending wish list, more borrowing and spending. they hit small businesses, manufacturers. if we're for more american energy and manufacturing y is he opposing the keystone pipeline, why is he opposing taxes on manufacturers? the rhetoric doesn't meet the substance. that's our concern. i don't think the president can run on his record. it's not good. he's not going to change his tune or ideology. he's dug in on that. i think he's going to resort to divisiveness. that's what's concerning. it's going to be a politically divisive speech or it's going to be a divisive agenda. i think he's going to double down in the direction he's taken us. today marks 1,000 days since the

senate bothered trying to pass a budget. we have an economic debt crisis which only can be addressed if congress gets to work and passes a budget. they haven't passed a budget for 1,000 days. it's a record he can't get around. >> as you say that, there is a man leading the republican primary race in florida who described your efforts as social engineering. speaker gingrich in an earlier conversation, as you well know, said what you proposed to do in terms of cuts in medicare and other programs proposed by you, social engineering. >> well, if you check the tape he took that back. he recognized that he misspoke. he's endorsed what we've proposed. charlie, here's the issue. medicare is going bankrupt. the president's new health care law puts aboard 15 unelected, unaccountable bureaucrats this year in charge of price controlling and, therefore, rationing medicare. what we have said is don't make changes to people 55 and above but save the program for bankruptcy for those 55 and

below, 54 and below. the way we propose to do that is have the program work the way federal employees have. it has bipartisan support here in the capital. it's something we've put ideas on the table, solutions, not just rhetoric to try to fix this country's primary problems. >> another idea that's getting problems, nice to have you back with us, is this idea to have the wealthy pay more in taxes. when you look at the how the american people feel about this there's an overwhelming majority of people that want this. 58% of people support raising taxes on incomes of $250,000 and higher. is that something that you could perhaps at least have a conversation about? >> see, here's the issue, erica. what people don't realize when they're given these poll questions is most small businesses pay their taxes as individuals. eight out of ten american businesses file as individuals. nine out of ten from wisconsin.

so what that ends up doing is it raises tax rates on successful small businesses. they could go as high as 45% in a year from now and the problem, erica, is these tax increases that the president's talking about, the money doesn't go to reduce the deficit. it only covers 8% of the president's proposed spending spree. the other 92% of the president's spending is on borrowed money. so you're not even talking about closing a fiscal gap, we're talking about taxing and spending and taxing successful small businesses more. i have a better idea which would be far better for our budget. instead of taking more from successful small businesses, stop subsidizing wealthy people. stop corporate welfare, stop crony capitalism. don't spend money on these people which is what the government is doing. >> always good to see you. thank you very much for joining us. >> thank you. want to follow up on a story that we brought you yesterday in alabama. they are still searching for tornado survivors in the wake of two twisters that destroyed or

damaged as many as 500 homes in the birmingham area. at least two people were killed. more than 100 were injured. meantime, in utah over the weekend snow and ice caused some serious trouble on the roads as you can see. it made this street impossible to and a half have i gad. this is a youtube video we have. it actually didn't stop it. it took a lot of folks trying and failing

>> time now to show you some of the morning's headlines around the dwloeb. we begin with "the times" of london. they told police in 2002 that they were listening to voice mails. rupert murdoch's newspaper had to shut down. seniors working well past retirement age. nearly 18% of people over the age of 65 have jobs. so do p.5% of those 75 and up. in the "los angeles times," a picture, not a headline caught our eye. a giant explosion on the sun is sending radiation our way. this is the strongest geomagnetic storm in years and it could disrupt satellites and air travel. it could even cause power blackouts. and finally this from the "new york post," a new york high school has school crossing paintpain painted on the street outside.

s-h-c-o-o-l. school didn't notice it for months. president kennedy's auto tapes just being released. they show him making a schedule for the day he was buried. you're watching "cbs this morning." your local news is next. fifteen year old gir good morning, everyone. it is 7:26. get you caught up with some of the bay area headlines on this tuesday. a 15-year-old girl is hospitalized right now after a sexual assault in the fisherman's wharf area overnight. san francisco police do have a suspect in custody. he is also in the hospital. there is no suspect in a deadly shooting in richmond last night. a contra costa college student gunned down as he sat in a car with his sister. and a southern california woman filed a report with san francisco police claiming ross mirkarimi was abusive to her when they dated a few years ago. meanwhile, mayor ed lee says sheriff mirkarimi should take a

leave of absence to avoid distractions until his trial is over. got your traffic and weather coming up right after this.

good morning from the traffic center. look out for police activity through san francisco. turk street is closed between polk and larkin so all that area is blocked off. expect delays. delays continue at the bay bridge toll plaza. slow and go backed up into the maze. busy off the eastshore freewayas well on the westbound side. accident northbound 680 at treat boulevard. two left lanes are blocked. chp on scene. traffic is starting to back up as you work your way through there. also slow and go in the 880/237 connector as you head through milpitas and golden gate bridge, not doing too badly. that's traffic. here's elizabeth. >> thanks, gianna. sunrise over san francisco, that's the view from behind me. yeah, we have a lot of low and high clouds out there today. and we got some areas of fog, as well. north and east bay valley fog, especially for this morning and then we are burning off by this afternoon. and we're going to see some sunshine. temperatures out the door,

right now mostly in the 40s, a few 50s out there. check out mountain view, san jose, oakland come in at 49. warming up to the upper 50s to the low 60ss across the bay area. so partly cloudy today, staying dry through the week with above average temperatures by the weekend.

i called up my pop and i said, hey, dad, i'm going to coach. he said, you're going to coach? he said, what did you go to college for? i said i think i can do a good job here. he said, well, you make sure you have an impact. don't waste your time. >> that was joe paterno talking to me in 2006 talking about the day he decided to be a football coach, and it changed his life forever. welcome back to "cbs this morning." this afternoon penn state university is holding a wake for paterno. he died on sunday from complications from lung cancer. two months after his

record-setting career were cut short when he was fired in a scandal involving his former top assistant. >> two of his children are here at penn state college. thank you for taking time to talk with us. talk for a moment about his legacy and what these last years have been for him. >> well, his legacy is going to be in his five children and 17 grand children and certainly the hundreds of players that he's coached over the years. what do we do with our lives and what they do with their lives are going to be the thing that becomes a legacy for him. >> how do e these last weeks and controversy weigh on him and what impact did it have on him physically? >> you know, really he was very focused on the next chapter in his life. he was -- he was fighting. he was looking forward to what he had ahead of him. he was positive, confident, and

was really enjoying this stage of his life. we had an 85th birthday about a month ago. all 17 grand children, children and spouse. his birthday wish was not for us but the wish he had for that night, health, happiness, a great family, a loving family, and a strong family. and, really, the legacy of having lived your life the way you wanted to live it and done things the right way. >> the legacy's clearly there, and it speaks for itself and the players speak for themselves and the family speaks for itself. clearly this had to be hard for him and had to weigh on him. and did he feel he had an opportunity to put his own perspective on what had happened and to make any apologies or whatever he wanted to make? >> he was very much a forward-looking person. i was sharing with someone the other day that when we were -- when i was younger and until

very recently my parents entertained after most games and win or lose, people would be there. no matter what happened, whether they won or lost, he was very focused. if there had been a loss and they were saying whatever, he would say, aye, i'm worried about the next game. same thing if they won. you're great, what a great play. he'd say, that's over. i'm worried about the game next week. i think that's where he was. he was worrying about what he was doing next and what the next fight was. >> jay, there's been a lot of question as to whether penn state officials should be able to attend the memorial of your father. how do you as a family feel about that? >> well, i think the focus takes away on what we're trying to do the next couple of days. we're celebrating 61 years of penn state, 85 years of a life lived at a very high level of integrity, more reality at penn state. obviously we want all penn

staters to feel welcome and all people who have supported the family through cards, letters, emotion, and the outpouring of support we've gotten, not just since the days he's died but over the course of his 61 years. so this is an open celebration of really an incomparable and beautiful life. >> what do you think -- we talked a lot about it and charlie touched on his legacy in the greater world, among the penn state alum, those who admired him as a coach. talk about his legacy personally, to you, his children and 17 grandchildren. what will they remember? >> i think what you're going to see is as we get past the next couple of days and celebrate his life, the legacy that's going to remain is his sense of personal excellences, what really came through. he believed that success was something people outside of you put on you and defined you, but your personal excellence is

really what you were all about, and that's a lesson i've hear from him and players have heard from him and penn staters have heard from him and they've tried to maintain that and he has. i think there's never been a question he's always done the right thing and i think that will come shining through. >> i would add, too, in the several days leading up to his passing that his legacy became very apparent in his children and grandchildren. he had always taught us commitment loyalty. we were all very loyal to each other. and the way the 17 grandchildren handled watching this transpire, they were all -- his values were clearly coming through and their bash and how they handled themselves and the kinds of things they said to him as we were saying good-bye. >> as he was saying his good-bye to all of you, what did he most want to say? >> he was most concerned about all of us. i think even up to a couple of days ago i was in visiting him,

and he was sort of saying, go home, take care of your family, i'll be fine, don't worry about me hchl e was always more concerned about o'people. >> jay and mary kay, i really preach your time. again, our condolences. >> thank you. a former cia official is charged with leaking secrets and potentially putting other agents' lives at risk. joran miller goes inside the case. and you're watching "cbs this morning." stay with us. ♪ [ female announcer ] philadelphia cooking creme. a simple way to make dinner fresh and new again. creamy philadelphia along with savory herbs and spices. just stir it in. now it only takes a moment to make the moment. ♪ living the life with me ♪ so spread a little something

former cia officer john kier a coo once helped track down a suspected al qaeda leader. on monday he was charged with leaking classified information and also the names of cia colleag colleagues. >> john miller is with us. he is a former cia official and police official. welcome. >> hello. >> what can you tell us about

this. >> this is so unusual. here's a former cia case officer who was on the scene in pakistan for the capture of top al qaeda leaders who gave up the names of two cia employees, one of whom was a covert operator, the other of whom was right in the middle of capture of key al qaeda leaders. >> how did he give up the names? >> well, he gave them up in interviews, in e-mails, and in conversations with reporters. >> and the reporters were named in "the new york times" as well. >> that's right. >> now they're going after him. >> yes. and think that the league crux here is when you're a cia officer or work for any intelligence agency, and i had to sign the same sheets and documents working for the intelligence agency numerous times, you swear that what you learn in the course of what's classified remains so until you're told otherwise.

somebody i worked with every day in the intelligence community who was an extraordinarily good case officer. and what happens is, a, you're not going to work undercover anywhere in the world. you're not going to be able to travel. be the other risk is that foreign governments are able to kind of track backward and say, well, when was this guy here and where did he say and who was he with and who were his sources and who could he have met with and what associations did he have with the people in our government and were they sources. so it actually can be dangerous. >> so you approve of what the government's trying to do here. >> i don't approve of anything or disapprove. i'm a reporter. >> but as a friend. this has a personal thing for you. >> the reporters who pulled this information out, they're doing their job. the defense lawyers who pulled this information out -- and the names and frats ended up in the cells of al qaeda detainees in

♪ ♪ >> that is a quick thinking violinist right there. he's interrupted by a cell phone in the audience during his concert in poland. you saw what he did. he played the ring tone right back. it's 8:00. welcome back to "cbs this morning." i'm gayle king.

charlie, who says violinists are stuffy? >> god bless youtube for that kind of video. i'm charlie rose. we begin with a piece of history that's just been made public. it's the final batch of secret tape from president john f. kennedy. >> bill plant has the story. >> reporter: good morning, gayle. it's eerie to hear president kennedy in his final days. the recordings released today are the last of those that he made in the oval office and on the phone. jfk may have intended to use them for a memoir, but they now give us a new window on the final three months of his presidency. nearly 50 years after jfk's death, the final release of his personal recordings. 45 hours of tape chronicaling the end of his presidency up to two days before the assassination. >> president kennedy died at 1:00 p.m. central standard time. >> reporter: three days before,

a particularly ominous note. staffers were asked to schedule a meeting with a general. at one point, he makes a haunting reference to the day on which his funeral would be held. the tapes were a secret from even his closest aids. they document kennedy's private meetings and phone calls with in-depth discussions about key events of the day, including the upcoming election, u.s.-soviet relations and the vietnam war. there are light-hearted moments as well. you can hear clearly the sounds of the president's children playing near the oval office as he introduces them to soviet foreign minister.

>> this shows the president incredibly vigorous, able to make at one hand the strongest policy statements and crack a joke at the next minute. >> reporter: for historian, the tapes provide a rare insight into the time that became known as camelot. >> these tapes are his autobiology if i of the white house, if you'd like. their value can't be overestimated. >> reporter: lyndon johnson and richard nixon also made personal videotapes. jfk's tapes seem to have fewer bomb shells, yet they still show the private side of the public personality in the oval office. charlie, gayle. >> bill, thank you very much. arthur walter isaacson is with us in the studio. he's written several biographies. his latest is the best seller "steve jobs." here, you have steve jobs who

you had a chance to have many conversations with. ben franklin, no conversation. what do you think of having this kind of material from the president's own words as source material and understanding of what it's like to be in the white house? >> those of us who like to write biographies, we yearn for the days when people used to tape themselves. richard nixon messes up for everybody because of the watergate tapes and nobody would tape themselves afterwards. if you listen to the johnson tapes, the kennedy tapes, the nixon tapes -- and there are a lot of kennedy tapes that came out before. these give you a great source of history. we used to have, charlie, diaries. you know, we used to have letters, tapes. now people don't even do e-mails. it's pretty hard, which is why when you do a biography, you have to sort of do a subject and try to talk to them, get that first draft of history down. >> speaking of biographies, you

had this wonderful opportunity with steve jobs and went right up close to the end. have you learned things since his death that you would have loved to have been able to put into the book? >> no, not really. there were a lot of things that steve jobs told me that i was a little circumspect about because they involve future apple products. for example, the i books and the textbook. the idea you could disrupt the textbook industry and have, you know, sort of these interactive texts. he was passionately committed to that, but because these were future products, i think it was, you know, incumbent on app apple to announce how they were going to do it. everything we've seen so far is the dna of steve jobs. >> and their profits are come out this week. it looks pretty good. i think i heard up 6%. how is the company able to do so well without the visionary of steve jobs?

>> in his last board meeting, he resigned as ceo. they started making fun of hewlett packard for getting out of the tablet and laptop business. steve jobs said, wait a minute, they tried to create a company that would last. don't laugh at them. these bozos who have messed up their company, i don't want that to happen here. he had infused a simple thing into the dna of apple, which is be at the intersection of creativity and technology. i think that will last for a while. >> can i just talk about your book for a second? i just happen to have it here on the set, walter. i got it when it first came out. i was in an airport. i stopped counting at ten. ten people had the book. we all looked at each other knowingly. i'm so fascinated by your impressions of him because he comes across as so prickly to me. totally unexpected to me. a little bit mean. >> you negotiatiknow, he believ

normal rules didn't exactly apply to him. even little things, like not putting a license plate on his car. now, you may think -- and certainly he was sometimes really rough on people. he would just get furious. >> a little rough on people? >> well, he'd look at the plan for the new imac. he was so emotional. he wanted it to be perfect. i think that's connected to who he was. if you want a pure nice guy, i've written a biography of ben franklin. he was nice. steve jobs had a passion for perfection. >> did you have any questions about him you did not get answered? >> yeah. >> which were? >> well, a couple things. his relationship to philanthropy was something he didn't talk about. i kept trying to push him into that. >> so what's the next project? >> i was thinking of doing ada lovelace, who was a math mathematician, the daughter of

lord byron. i may do that. i might extend it to the whole notion of the digital revolution. >> you ever think you'll have an opportunity like you did with steve jobs again? >> i don't know. i did henry kissinger. after that, i don't know. >> there is a story that president clinton approached you as steve jobs approached you. >> oh, no. steve jobs definitely approached me. i talked to people, you know -- i talked to clinton about it and people close to him, but he didn't approach me. i think he's kicking around whether he's going to write his own. he's done memoirs, but there's still the clinton presidency to write. let me deflect that question. >> you're deflecting very well. >> the answer is no. he never said, please, write my biography. >> but something happened here, didn't there? >> no, i think it's an interesting project to take on. i think he's probably at some point going to look for somebody, but i'm not that person. >> but might you at some point

be that person? >> i don't think so, charlie. it's just -- i don't know. i don't think so. doesn't seem like it's for me. >> but steve jobs said that one of the reasons why he approached you is because you can get people to talk. i'm wondering what that skill is, walter. if you can get people to talk to -- >> ask charlie. >> no, no. we're sitting at the table with a master. i get that too. i was fascinated by all the people he could have gone to. but he came to you. >> you know, one of the things that -- and he said be honest. i'm brutally honest. you talk about saying mean. he was brutally honest. he kept pushing me to be honest in the book. i think the question of getting people to talk, it's like we're

all right. it's the a first for the iowa lottery officials. they're demanding a person claiming a lottery jackpot reveal his or her identity or forfeit the prize. >> the case has been filled with mysterious twists and turns from the very beginning. >> reporter: hours before iowa's hot lotto deadline was set to expire this past thursday, no one had brought forth a winning ticket. >> we would love the winner to come in. >> reporter: iowa lottery ceo terry rich was prepared. >> most think that if someone does show up, it will be in the last two hours on thursday. we have all hands on deck for all day thursday just in case someone shows up. if they do, we'll have the money ready. >> reporter: and mere minutes before the deadline, a winning ticket found its way via a mysterious law firm and fedex. a new york attorney identified as crawford shaw signed the ticket on behalf of a trust and

shipped it to a des moines law firm. but who is crawford shaw? and how did he get the ticket? shaw has allegedly been sued for fraud in the past. that adds to the lottery intrigue but proves nothing. rich noted the lottery has received multiple claims the ticket was stolen. >> more importantly, pef to know the facts. we want to pay it, if it all comes through. >> reporter: like everyone else, lottery officials want to know who actually bought the ticket. they set a friday deadline. terrell brown, cbs this morning, new york. >> it's a little fishy. >> it is a little tissuey. >> if i won the lottery, i wouldn't show up either. number one, people would not be happy if we showed up. what are they playing the lottery for? if i won, i wouldn't show up. i would share with someone. >> we wouldn't want everyone hounding you for money. >> no, we wouldn't want that. >> this is a fishy story.

this morning government officials are close to a deal with america's five biggest banks over their mortgage and foreclosure practices. business correspondent rebecca jarvis says it could put some money in your pocket. emphasis on could. so what exactly are we talking about in terms of a possible settlement? >> as gayle said the five largest banks, bank of america,

jpmorgan, citigroup, wells fargo, they could turn around and help those facing foreclosure or are facing foreclosure and in exchange for that banks get a cleared green light to proceed with business. they're not going to get sued in the future for deceptive pr practices that they may or may not have performed. >> what exactly was done? >> one of the things that has been talked about a lot is robo-signings. people getting pushed through the foreclosure process without the banks actually paying attention to the details because there was such a huge volume of foreclosures coming through the pipelines. banks couldn't handle them. banks signed off. that's the claim. >> if you look at this, if it's agreed upon, who qualifies? >> it qualifies for privately health mortgages issued between 2008 and 2011, no fannie and freddie mortgages would apply.

that's about half of the mortgage market. if you do qualify, there's a couple of things you may get as an american homeowner. for one, if you own a home and you're facing foreclosure, about a million people could get a $20,000. victims of improper foreclosures could get $1,800 because they've been foreclosed on and refinancing at 5.25%. which is a little above the rate where it is now for the mortgage but better than what a lot of people are paying and because their mortgage has been under water they haven't been able to refinance. >> how likely is this? >> it's going to be difficult. right now you have a number of states who have to agree to this. california has already dropped out of the process at this moment in time. they want the ability to go back and sue the banks if they believe the banks have done improper things. under the settlement agreement they're only going to do it if

they get the clear signal. there is still a very contentious debate. >> we want you to stop talking because we want to wish you happy marriage. >> thanks so much. >> when is the wedding? >> saturday. >> next time we see you,

future. i'm -- it's my stage of life, but i'm excited. >> dr. jon lapook is with us. this is exciting. >> exciting. there are almost 2 million americans with macular degeneration and another 7 million are on their way, so for them this is real hope. >> go ahead, erica. we all want to go. >> it's somewhat controversial because this deals with embryonic stem cells. >> that's right. human embryonic stem cells, and it should be clear that for some people this is the destruction of life, and certainly some people believe that, okay? this embryo was donated by a couple who had made as part of infertility treatment and it was leftover. it was going be discarded presumably. so on one hand people believe this is a destruction of life and on the other hand this represents people who have their only hope.

parkinson's, blindless, paralysis. it's one thing when it's affecting your family. >> that's an ongoing political debateful what is interesting here is the medical possibility of stem cell, and we've all been looking for the reality of the possibility and this may be the first glimmer of that. >> that's right. because a lot of things went right. people worry. you take stem cells and you put this in a person. they have the ability to differentiate in the body. you put it in the eye and it becomes an ear or a nose. they first differentiated it, tickled it to become something closer to the cell that was being destroyed. so they didn't feel it was a danger that it was going become a tumor. it wasn't rejected, didn't cause any kind of safety problems, so far, so good. >> it's only two patients. should we still be excited about it? >> the most exciting one was the second woman. they looked in the ba back of her retina and they looked in

the back and saw the new cells were taking up home. she did this dramatic thing. by the way, no one asked her to do this before. i said cover your good eye first and she couldn't see. she covered her bad eye and she was looking just with the good eye. and you should have

the rubbing? >> i have. >> okay. here we go. we take you live to the ceremony

point with 11 nominations and "the artist has ten, these are films that the academy and hollywood really loves because it has a lot to do with old hollywood and a love of film. >> intense nostalgia on a faentd life of movies. >> absolutely. >> as i was saying, the "descendants," really, is an extremely loud and incredibly close are about the only films in there that are realistic dramas about the present day. >> let's go out to los angeles where we have nancy o'dell there, nancy, what do you think? >> good morning. how are you, charlie? >> your reaction to what you just heard? >> el with, thing one of the biggest surprises is how well "hugo" did with the most nominations. best director, best movie. another shock, i think, no lie nar dough dicaprio. i think i'm going to have to start a campaign on his behalf. i think he deserves an oscar so

much. also talking about martin score see city. it was his first 3 h difficult project, "hugo" was. i'm not surprised. everybody artist" is, i think, the movie to be. >> it has kind of momentum and kind of sentimental favorite because it reaches back in black and white? >> it does. but i would say there's no dispositive winner. it's a wide open group. i could pick five or six that would run. >> there's no clear runaway that can do this. >> i doan think so. >> nancy, take your pick. best actor or actress, how do you see those races in terms of who's the most likely to be in competition onglobe, critics

choice awards, which i think is a clear prewasser as well as the golden globes. the last seven out of the eight actors who won -- >> and hollywood likes george. >> everyone likes george. i have to say a funny thing about him -- >> everybody loves george. >> i have to say something he told me on the golden globes red carpet. he said he was slightly depressed because of the golden globes come nom knees. he was the oldest. but gary oldman, that was a surprise nomination. he was the oldest. he can't say anymore. >> plus he's competing with his friend brad in "money pit." >> i know. that's true. and brad deserving as well. >> there are a number of categories, either films he was directly nominated for or involved with. >> directed and co-wroted "ides

of march." >> why do you suppose leo wasn't nominated. everybody says the golden globe is a precurser -- >> it's not the best work by leo decap preyeo. >> or clint eastwood. >> the golden globes are sort of a precursor to the oscars. how d thauz hold for 2012? >> well, actually the best picture winners for the golden globe were the "descendants" and "the artist." martin scorsese, michelle williams, george clooney, meryl streep. you'd have to count them among the top candidates. >> what about nancy -- what's the title? >> "extremely loud and incredibly close." are you surprised about them? >> i think that was surprising they were nominated.

speaking of whether the golden dwloebs are a precursor, thing they are. they haven't been in years recently though. one out of seven golden globe winners have gone on to win best picture, so they haven't been a great indicator of the past three years, but i do think the golden globe winners is between the decendents and the "help." what does that look like? >> rooney mara. >> i think the big competition is between viola and rooney and meryl. i think meryl is going to walk away with it. i think it's probably the voters, if they remember the last time she won an oscar was 30 years ago. that's hard to believe because she's nominated every year.

it looks like she's won more but she's only one two. she's tied with hillary swank. meryl has been acting a lot longer. hillary is a wonderful actress but you would think meryl would get it. michelle williams was fantastic in my week with marilyn. >> let me ask you, is this a good year for movie goers? >> i would say you've got ten good movies as best perfect nominees out of a year that was not the best year for movies is my view. >> what about "bridesmaids" making the cut? is that a big surprise? making the cut? "bridesmaids?" >> i don't think -- was it nominated? >> it was nominated for best picture. >> you know, i was -- i would be happy with anything that "bridesmaids" would do. i know melissa mccarthy is a

fantastic actress and she's been getting a lot of critical acclaim. i love to see "bridesmaids," they've done really well getting nomination across the board by different entitities. it's doing what the k"hangover" couldn't get do. >> they don't get the oscars. >> they don't. but melissa got the nod. we'll have much more coming up with nancy tonight. be sure to czech your local listing. stay with us. you're watching "cbs this morning." we'll be right back. >> thank you, nancy. >> thanks, guys. get married?

[ announcer ] before you make your leap, make a list. then get going in the completely redesigned cr-v. all new, from honda. that does it for us, but before we go, the one person, the one film that you hope wins, what is your all-time favorite this year? >> you know, i think i need to see all of them, which i have

not yet done before i can answer. >> i'm going say "the artist," because i watched it very reluctantly, but by the end i was hooked. but for you, charlie, what is george going to wear to the oscars? >> this would mean a lot to him if he win this

laces? really? slip-on's the way to go. more people do that, security would be like -- there's no charge for the bag. thanks. i know a quiet little place where we can get some work done. there's a three-prong plug. i have club passes.
