elizabeth was being trailed by tv cameramen with very big bright lights. when suddenly, this cameraman disappeared and ran to the front door of the ambassador's residence, because elizabeth taylor was making her grand entrance. the ambassador was furious. the queen of was merely amused. her press secretary told me that because for once, somebody else was the center of media attention. in private during that trip, she also demonstrated the secret of her sturdy stance that the allows her to endure long hours on her feet. lifting her evening gown above her ankles, she told the wife of her foreign secretary that one plants once the apart like this. always keep them parallel. make sure that your weight is evenly distributed, and that is all there is to it. the queen was accompanied by her good friend, jenny, who was her first and only american lady in waiting. who grew up in new york and newport, rhode island. as the wife of one of the queen's friends since childhood, she had been entertained frequently at the queens home, that all moral, and when the queen nas

>> i have known elizabeth for many years, and elizabeth is one of the smartest people i know.i believe she is not just going to be another senator. i believe she is going to be a great senator. i believe she is going to be a progressive voice not just for massachusetts for all of america. i was campaigning for her common-law and i am overjoyed that she is going to make it, because we really need her. >> what do you see as your mission right now in the second term as senator from vermont? >> i will tell you what the immediate mission is, and that is when congress reconvenes, it is going to be a lot of discussion about the fiscal cliff and deficit reduction. you have virtually every republican and some conservative democrats who want to lower tax rate for the wealthiest people in the country and cutting social security, medicare, medicaid. i think that is insane. i think that is unacceptable, and we have got to rally the american people. we have to do deficit reduction, but also the wealthiest people are doing fundamentally well. it is time for them to start paying their fair sh

like, taking the reader as close as possible to elizabeth, the human being, the wife and mother and friend, as well as the highly respected leader. i also wanted to do what none of her other biographers, all of them english, had done. just to explain her strong connection to the united states. not only has she been to this country five times -- 11 times, excuse me, five of them on private holidays, the most vacation time she has been anywhere outside her private estate, some of her and her closest friends are americans, which may be one of the biggest surprises. she has also known every president from harry truman to barack obama with the exception of lyndon johnson, who tried, but failed to meet her. i remember being impressed when an official told me at the memorial service at st. paul's cathedral, after the 9/11 attacks, the queen sang every single word of the american national anthem. and i would bet that there aren't any presidents who can sing all of the words to god save the queen. since we are here today, on the national mall, i thought i would focus on the queen's fondness

and now, now, news, we know what elizabeth warren wants to do first.-elect elizabeth warren this week planted her first flag in terms of what she wants to do with her new job. and it is district. and it is to the point. check this out. on the first day that the senate is in session and only on that day, there's something important that can happen. the senate that day decides its rules. right now if any one senator wants to block legislation, they can basically just say they want to block it and presto it's blocked. instant filibuster. which then means you need not a majority but a 60-vote super majority to get anything passed through that body. it was not supposed to be like that. the constitution established super majorities for some things, but for rare things like amending the constitution or ratifying treaties. and yes, minorities of senators could hold stuff up in that body. but the filibuster was really rarely used. that's how it was. that is not how it is anymore. now the republican minority in the senate uses it for everything. for just generic

elizabeth warren's background is an expert on bankruptcy law. she was the chair of the oversight panel for the bank bailout. she came up with the idea for the consumer financial protection bureau and helped get it off the ground. elizabeth warren was born to be on the senate banking committee. if anybody want ever born to be on that committee, she was born to be on that committee. want to know who would very much not like elizabeth warren to be on the banking committee? the banks. we have been hearing pretty much since she got elected about how wall street is going to do anything in its power to keep elizabeth warren off the banking committee and presumably out of their hair as much as possible. the latest reporting coming from mother jones. mother jones reporting on trade groups pressuring lawmakers to somehow block elizabeth warren from getting a seat on the banking committee. one senate aid telling mother jones that d.c.'s lobbying corridor has been going nuts trying to keep her off that particular committee. but what -- how does that work? h

let's get to elizabeth. we have been following a standoff since 11:00 last night. >> reporter: police standoff, it started around 11:00 last night on treasure island is over. the armed robbery suspect is dead. we have confirmed that. so they are in the process now of re-opening those off-ramps to treasure island. just a couple of minutes ago, in fact, they opened the eastbound off-ramp to treasure island. they should be re-opening the westbound on the upper deck access any moment now. in the meantime they turned on the metering lights early a good, gosh, 20 to 25 minutes earlier than typical so that's why you see these early- morning backups already behind the pay gates. earlier when treasure island was completely closed off to the public, never really impacted the morning drive on the upper deck and now we're just beginning to see slowing up that incline towards treasure island so again the latest information as of a couple of minutes ago is they are in the process of re- opening those off-ramps to treasure

host: elizabeth lower-basch? guest: for the fighting poverty, this is the measure. it is been around for a long time. so you can compare year to year. but it has some real problems. the big problem is a lot of things if we do that are most effective, you do not get any credit for in the official poverty measure. so if a family get food stamps, that is not officially list them out of poverty. a family earned income tax credit, which we know is very effective at lifting families out of poverty, it is not counted in the official measure. if you look that total spending, a lot of it is on health care, which is obviously very important to low income families, to seniors receiving medicaid. but that is not counted in poverty. even if medicaid is spending you know 3000 or $40,000 a year. host: let me go to veronique de rugy's point. how we get that poverty rate changed? and get it lowered? guest: there are two things. if you measure it with the modernized measure which does take things like food stamps and unemployment

and, george, my thoughts -- >> it's me. >> elizabeth, excellent. issue is going to be the economy. >> it is. >> and those tax cuts. that happens immediately. >>> let's pick up where you left off, jon. those tax cuts, taxmageddon, as people called it in your piece, are going to be a big issue. 90% of american families facing one of the biggest tax cuts they ever faced at the end of the year. let's bring in matthew dowd, martha raddatz, and liz ann sonders. what are the chances, president obama, with this divided congress, and divided country, really. we talked about 48% in the red column, and 48% in the blue column. what are the chances a deal will be reached? >> that's the situation that followed. there's an even bigger issue that divides the division and you say in the country. it's not only politically. but it's demographically divides in this country. we can't solve those problems until the divisions are bridged. the president has to work on the means of governing first. how does he fix the means of governing? it's broken now and dysfunctional.

george, elizabeth? let's go back inside. >> the storms just keep coming around. >> chris christie said i'm waiting for the pestilence and the locusts. after -- >> how much more? how much more? you think about the heavy snow and what it's doing to the partially damaged trees after sandy. >> i'm just thinking about the folks in staten island and new jersey displaced. we're thinking about you guys. >> we sure are. >>> coming up on "gma," we have another story. the married father accused of terrorizing highway drivers across the midwest in more than two dozen shootings. what made him snap? >>> and the brazen robbery caught on tape. thieves on motorcycles racing through a mall. stealing hundreds of dollars of jewelry in a high-speed heist. >>> and fashion fight. the war of the roses between tory burch and her ex. >>> and girl power on the gridiron. wait until you meet sam. means living with pain. it could also mean living with joint damage. help relieve the pain and stop the damage with humira, adalimumab. f

elizabeth cook, cbs 5. >>> you see the rain behind elizabeth. we got this in by a photographer.stuck a camera on his news van while driving south. wipers going at full speed. it's coming down. cbs 5 meteorologist paul deanno where it's about to really come down. >> the bay bridge is getting the worst of it right now. this front is splitting the bay area in half. in san francisco, oakland, is where we find the heaviest rain right now. concord and pleasant hill you're getting heavy rainfall. areas like santa rosa, you're getting a bit of a break. and the south bay, you're waiting for the first drops of rain. but trust me the morning commute tomorrow around san jose is going to be sloppy. latest computer models suggest a half inch of rainfall for santa rosa with half of that toward hayward and less for san jose. you can look at doppler radar at cbs sf. com. wait until you see how much sunshine in the forecast. coming up next. >> cbs 5 reporter shows us while the thief was casing the house. the house was casing her. >> he stole the items off the porch in six seconds. >> i want to sa
