welcome to "cbs this morning." the latest cbs news national poll out this morning shows donald trump remains the republican presidential front-runner. 35% of gop primary voters across the country support trump. that nearly doubles ted cruz. he is in second place at 18%. but another new poll finds cruz taking a narrow two-point lead in the national race. the candidates are still slugging it out in south carolina and major garrett is in mt. pleasant, just outside of charleston, following all of the republican candidates with two days to go before the republican primary. major, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. donald trump has a big lead here and a team of lawyers he says is ready to sue top rival ted cruz, not once but twice. once over a campaign ad. a second time over cruz's canadian birthday. cruz has argued nine cases

and may handle the disposition of trump himself. this concludes the law and order portion of our south carolina republican presidential primary coverage. lawsuits. i've had great success in things are going to have a lawsuit, but we certainly want to keep somebody honest. >> reporter: in dueling television town halls last night, donald trump and ted cruz aired their legal laundry. >> at last, this has not been a typically race by any sense. and i don't think anyone is surprised that donald is threatening to sue people. he has done that most of his adult life. >> reporter: trump has threatened to sue over this ad that shows his previous support for abortion rights. >> i am pro choice in every respect. >> reporter: trump's lawyers said in a letter to cruz's campaign the ad was, quote, replete with outright lies and misrepresents that mr. trump is pro choice. wednesday night, cruz said a lawsuit filed over one's own words would fail.

most ridiculous theory i've ever heard that telling the voters what donald trump's actual record is deceitful in lying. i invited mr. trump. this lawsuit. >> reporter: also part of a town hall discussion, marco rubio echoed trump's charge that cruz is a serial liar. >> i said he has been lying because if you say something that isn't true and you say it over and over again and you know it's not true there is no other word for it. >> reporter: rubio has the support of south carolina governor nikki haley. she stumbled out of the gate. >> this is one of many bruises i will take from marco rubio. we make presidents. let's make marco rubio the next president of the united states! god bless! >> reporter: rubio is now cornered the market on new establishment south carolina republican endorsements. haley, u.s. senator tim scott and congressman trey gowdy

party inspired political sense abilities and not enoughsure if it's enough to propel him past trump's campaign. john dickerson is in washington. john, good morning. >> good morning. >> reporter: how do people make sense when they see competing national polls? >> well, they should treat them very, very gingerly. in february of 2012, rick santorum was up over mitt romney by about ten points. what they give us a sense of where the low information voter is. as primaries and caucuses, the ones we have been focusing on as the big gets more national and we have these big days like super tuesday, national polls give us a better sense as the contest gets bigger. we basically, right now, the game is in south carolina. >> how much of a difference do you think, john, governor haley's endorsement will make for marco rubio? >> in a year where the establishment is in such foul

i think establishment endorsements probably don't mean that much. they don't mean that much any way. nikki haley endorsed mitt romney and newt gingrich won the south carolina primary in 2012. so i think in the battle between marco rubio and jeb bush it's nice to have something on your side if you're marco rubio. in that respect, it helps. but it's not going to, i don't think, give him a huge boost in south carolina. >> john, in some ways, haley's endorsement of marco rubio a blow to jeb bush? apparently, former president george w. bush met privately with haley on monday to ask for that endorsement for his brother. >> jeb bush's argument is governors know it better than senators. he said i've had experience. so it would have been nice to have a fellow governor say i agree with that. and so in the news cycles, it's not good for jeb bush. he was trying to build a little something in south carolina. if he doesn't do well in south carolina, which means beating rubio, it's a real blow to his campaign.

have liked this, but his challenges go well beyond the endorsements he is not getting. >> john, let me switch you across the country to nevada where polls in the democratic race suggest tightening and very tight. >> yeah. the key thing to watch about nevada if bernie sanders does better he has to do well with non-white voters and one of the bigger challenges for his campaign. if he can do it in nevada, maybe do it in other places and interests me about nevada. >> john, thank you so much. sources confirm to cbs news overnight that the white house is set to announce today that president obama will make a historic visit to cuba. the short stop over in march will mark another huge step toward improving relations. the plan drew immediate criticism from critics, presidential candidates. no sitting president has visited havana since calvin coolidge in there is your fun fact for the day. >> thank you, norah o'donnell. >> write that down. >> i'm writing it down. apple is getting support this morning from another

standoff with the fbi. google's ceo says apple is right to defy a judge's order to help unlock the iphone used by one of the san bernardino killers. the fbi needs just four digits to crack this code. jeff pegues is in washington with the escalating fight. >> reporter: good morning. apple's lawyers are digging in. industry sources say the tech giant is ready to fight this all the way to the supreme court. the fbi is locked out of syed farook's iphone. they say apple is not a company that hands over its company's private information. the u.s. magistrate judge ordered apple to -- apple's ceo tim cook says the tech giant doesn't have the technology and that developing it would create

iphone but millions of devices. the white house defended the department of justice's request for apple to aid in an investigation. the president calls an important national priority. >> they are not asking apple to redesign its product or to create a new back door to one of their products. they are simply asking for something that would have an impact on this one device. >> reporter: as the war on terror and the right to privacy collide, cnet's dan ackerman says apple and the fbi have competing and compelling interests. >> apple says if you promise you only use it once it's going to get used again and again and once you create the precedent of giving that access once you're not able to deny at the time next time. >> reporter: google's ceo posted a series of tweets wednesday citing with apple, saying we give law enforcement access to data based on valid legal orders, but that is wholly different than requiring companies to enable hacking of

in the two months since farook and his wife tashfeen malik killed 14 people in san bernardino, california, the fbi is poring over theirs electronic and internet history and discovered evidence that farook and malik sympathized with isis and other islamic radicals leading up to the terror attack. publicly, apple says it doesn't have the technology to do what the fbi wants but a top industry official tells cbs news that apple could theoretically write the software to comply with that ruling. a los angeles hospital admits it paid nearly $17,000 in ransom to hackers. the fbi is investigating the cyber attack that disabled the computer network at the hollywood presbyterian medical center. carter evans is at the hospital with the story behind the ransom payment. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. the hospital says patient care was not affected by the attack and computer systems are up and running again.

for these hackers who were paid with bit coin. a digital currency that is nearly impossible to trace. and while the hospital says it notified law enforcement immediately, we are now learning that may not be the case. in a brazen attack, hackers disabled the computer network of the hollywood presbyterian medical center. a source familiar with the investigation tells cbs news, the hospital paid the nearly $17,000 ransom to take back control before contacting law enforcement. in a statement, the president of the hospital said, the quickest and most efficient way to restore our systems was to pay the ransom. >> if they decide to pay the ransom, it probably means they didn't have very good backups and weren't able to recover the data and that the data would have been lost if they didn't pay the ransom. >> reporter: on february 5th, hackers infiltrated the hospital's computer network what is known as ransomware that held sensitive information and files

making it accessible only with provided after ransom was paid. target now. >> reporter: dave kennedy runs a cyber security firm and has experience with these type of attacks. he says after highly publicized data breaches involving credit card companies hackers are moving on to easier targets and many hospitals have been slow to adequately secure their networks. a 2015 study found that criminal cyberattacks on health care organizations have increased 125% since 2010 and the danger can sometimes be life threaten. >> when the ransom pieces affect the machines it's causing the system to stop functioning and can definitely impact life and systems that support life. >> reporter: now if hackers are able to gain access to medical records, they will have social security number and other private information that could be sold on the black market. cyber security experts tell us

hospitals and schools that are especially susceptible to these ransomware attacks. >> thank you, carter. this morning, cbs news poll shows americans are split over the president's plan to nominate a successor to supreme court justice antonin scalia. 47% in our poll says the president should choose a nomination this year and 46% say the nomination should be made after the november election. margaret brennan is at the white house with reaction. >> reporter: good morning. president obama decision to skip the saturday funeral of justice scalia is being seen by some as a snub of the conservative judge. and a missed opportunity by others. former obama administration

want to reduce partisanship we can honor those who we disagree with. the president will pay his respects on friday when ska lee''s body is in repose at the supreme court. there is no protocol. while george w. bush delivered the eulogy at justice rankin's funeral his predecessor bill clinton attended two services and skipped the services for two others. the white house won't say whether it was the president's schedule or security concerns or another factor that led him to bow out. but, norah, it has become yet another politically charged moment ahead of that fierce battle to fill justice scalia's seat. >> thank you, margaret. turkey blames this morning a syrian with ties to a kurdish militia for a devastating bomb attack. the car bomb attack killed 28 people and hit dozenses more in ankara, the capital city.

not just throwing insults, now there are threats and even lawyers' letters. donald trump has called ted cruz a liar all week. he is also has repeated his threat to sue the canadian-born senator over his eligibility to be president. trump's campaign sent cruz a cease and desist letter. >> it demands cruz stop running this television ad using an old interview where donald trump says he supports abortion rights. trump says the entire base for your argument that mr. trump is pro choice is based on an interview that took place nearly two decades ago. cruz responded last night in a town hall in south carolina. >> hits argument in the letter is running his own words was defamation. >> he says you're misrepresenting his current position he has evolved pro life. >> it is quite literally the no ridiculous theory i've ever heard that telling the voters what donald trump's actual

>> at the same town hall, marco rubio, again, called ted cruz a liar and accused him of consistently repeating things about rubio that cruz notion to be untrue. >> rubio has won the coveted endorsement of south carolina governor nikki haley. jeb bush who wanted that endorsement says he is him. his brother former president george w. bush met with haley privately on monday. at a bush event yesterday, south carolina supporters told bush how worried they are about the campaign and some shared their advice what turned into a campaign session. >> if you can raise the bar in the next session, and try to -- try to be beyond, you know, the bullying, because i think that is who you are. i think the campaign has been co-oped by the p.t. barnum of our time and i think he is getting you off of your message. i would encourage you to

>> this is what i do. this is called campaigning right now. >> no. i mean, sir, on the more national level, to the extent that you can. i know when you get into those debates, it's a free-for-all sometimes. >> oh, yeah. >> but i would encourage you to go, not just on your record but on your plan. >> those bush supporters and other south carolina republicans vote in two days. the campaigns are bombarding them with television ads and reaching out in other ways as well. one voter showed major garrett how overwhelming this media blitz can be. major is in mt. pleasant, south carolina. good morning again. >> reporter: good morning. if you're a south carolina republican, you simply cannot avoid presidential campaign phone calls, five, six, sometimes more a day. you can't avoid campaign mailers either. five, six, sometimes more a day. and then there are the campaign volunteers who knock on your door five -- well, not that many. no. but enough to be, mildly, annoying. tommy harkin is an undecided republican who welcomed us into

they start to have almost a negative effect. you get so much of it, you don't know what to believe on them because so many of them are negative. >> reporter: harkin said he and his friends are getting worn down and worn out, but political pros say this repetitive outreach pays off. >> all those mediums have a effect on persuasion and when 1 in 8 on undecided and who they are going to vote for, the advertising that voters receive is going to have an impact. >> reporter: harkin told us he doesn't even read the mailers or take the phone call any more. but campaigns cannot afford not to try. >> maybe the mail piece that a voter receives today doesn't persuade them, but the one they receive tomorrow does. advertising works. it's why businesses do it. it's why candidates do it. >> reporter: harkin isn't so sure. he just knows this about his family and his equally besieged republican friends. >> everybody, my friends at least, we talk about it, hear

with it and getting tired of it. >> reporter: there is a method madness. at some point, he' and other undecided republicans will make up their races and campaigns want to be the last word they hear before they cast their ballot because that word couldn't make a lasting >> thank you, major. >> i see both sides. you have to get the word out. >> you do. >> make the difference. you can't afford not to try. >> that's right. a new cbs news poll out. a national poll among republicans and says that more than half of republican voters say they may still change their minds about who to support. >> which is why that advertising is iortant. >> keep making your case. >> right. nevada democrats vote on saturday in the state's caucuses. the latest poll finds hillary clinton and bernie sanders are in a virtual tie. clinton is one highway ahead within the margin of error. this morning, her campaign released a new commercial that shows an exchange last sunday between clinton and a 10-year-old girl. she is worried her parents may

"the new york times" says for the first time in more than a century an opera composed by a woman will appear at the metropolitan opera.

december and by a composer who is from finland. the operation is one of the six new productions in the 2016 to 2017 season. babysitter's pay is rising. those caring for one child earn $15.71 an hour and up nearly 5.5% since last year. watching two kids can pay please $18 an hour. rates can be even higher in some big cities. i used to charge $2.50. >> i know i'm dating myself but i got a dollar an hour and i thought that was big bucks! i was very happy. stay up three hours, people! government regulators this morning are taking steps that could lower your part of your cable bill. the s.e.c. is offering to open i the market for boxes. the average monthly cable bill is close to $100. digital expert nicholas thompson

that's what you are, nicholas thompson. >> glad to be here. >> most people don't feel they have options. you get the cable box and comes into your home and what? >> there is a wire that comes out of the wall and goes into the cable box and you connect the box to the your tv. that cable box is provided to you by the cable company, by comcast, time warner cable and verizon. every month in your cable bill, you're paying 9, 10, $11 to rent that box. what the fcc is considering whether the cable companies need to change the way the information flows over that line so that other companies can make boxes, then there will kbe competition for the box and presumably that line in your bill will get reduced. if there is competition, you'll pay a little bit less. >> the cable companies, they say the consumer will pay more. true or false? >> the company cables have a bunch of arguments. hey, the system works right now and two, there might be some kind of violations of people's privacy or people will be able

then the cable companies have a monopoly and raise other parts reduced. my view it probably will bring prices down and that competition is good and this is a way -- >> it's interesting. it comes at a time when cable companies are finding out they are part of a ship to streaming yet, at the same time, they are one of the big entry points possess access to the internet. >> right. they are a huge entry point for access to the internet. they have monopolies. they have a lot of power. they have an inonovated as fast as other parts of the internet but they say they are doing fine and people are happy what we are doing. >> apple encryption, what is exactly apple being asked to do? >> they have this phone that was used by one of the terrorists in san bernardino. with the way apple phones, modern apple phones are built, i believe a 5c if you enter a pass wored ten times that is wrong the data will be erased.

crack this. fbi says to apple make a software so we can get the password and get all of the information. apple is say, no, we are not going to do that. a judge says apple has to do that and only says we are fighting it in court. >> at the same time, apple saying we can't do that without doing something new. >> apple is saying if we build this system that allows you to give in this phone we will have created a system that allows people to violate other people's cases in other cases. the fbi says you're doing this in one case, the terrorism case, please do it. >> do they do with one phone and destroy the software? once you've built it, it exists. once you've shown it can be done perhaps other people can do and that is apple's point. on the other hand, this is a terrorism case. this is a phone owned by the terrorist's employer and a situation of national security so maybe you should be more compromising. >> what do you think the position apple is taking? >> i think apple is taking a very strong stand on behalf of privacy and its users.

intrusions exposed in the edward snowden leaks but i think it's very bad for apple. i think in situations like this an american company and somebody who is trying to destroy many of the ideals that built apple and built silicon valley there is an obligation to a certain degree to work with your government to help resolve those things. >> i think the concern that law enforcement has is what if we are facing another 9/11 style event? a buyiobiological war fare event and information on phone they have to get to and that pose concerns in terms of safety. >> that is a prospective issue not looking back. >> it might be. who knows. >> that's right. >> there could be something that could help stop the next terrorist attack. >> couldn't they have worked it out privately? i'm wondering about that. >> apple chose to take a stand. >> okay. >> thank you, nick. >> thank you. >> university of missouri says this morning the investigation into the assistant professor who sparked a national backlash is nearly done. >> i need somebody over here! help me!
