things are not business as usual. >> no, they're not business as usual. the figures all show that the middle class income is essentially stagnant and that's just for the people who are employed. of course, there are many poor people in this country and there are also not only the unemployed that are officially counted but the people who are in such despair that they've given up looking for work and that's something that has to be corrected and has not been. it's hard to do it when you're fighting off the aftermath of a major recession, but, you know, we can't let that be the new normal or then the country is in trouble because the country not only has an economic mood, it has a psychological mood, and we have to feel that we can in the american way better our situation and progress or we're not going to do it. otherwise it becomes a sort of downward spiral. >> i'm glad you mentioned that because the psychological impact is important actually. so what danger do you think this current debate over the fiscal cliff is having? like last summer's debate over th

things are not business as usual, are they? >> no, they're not, and the fruit is, the figures all show that the middle class income is essentially stagnant, and that's just for the people who are employed. and there are many poor people in this country and they're also, not only the unemployed are officially counted, but they have given up looking for work. and that has to be corrected and has not been. it's hard to do it when you're fighting off the aftermath of a major recession. we can't let that be the new normal or then the country is in trouble. no one has an economical move, they have a psychological mood. we need to feel that we can better our situation and progress or we're not going to do it. >> i'm glad you mentioned that because the psychogical impact is important. what danger do you think this debate is having? is that impacting this countryo? >> well, it probably is if you look at, you know, the kind of thinings you look at. world markets and the mac row economy. in terms of the general public, i think it's just m

there is still a prevailing attitude that business as usual is ok. it is not. our country is in serious trouble. fiscally, we have seen what is happening in europe. that should be a warning to us. there's no leadership at the presidential level to address the problems. i think ted cruz came from way behind he structured it as a race of the insurgents. he wanted to be a fighter of the establishment. i look forward to welcoming him to the senate in working in to try to change washington and making sure business as usual is no longer the order of the day. >> what about your own race? does this give you any pause or that you need to keep an eye on things back? -- back home? >> i would always recommend that you go home and keep in touch with your constituents. we have senators who have lost races. there is a lot of skepticism for those who have been in washington. the important message that i need to articulate is that i am here trying to fight for change and not for the status quo. so far i think i have been successful. people like orrin hatch have been successful
