ed rendell is a former democratic governor of pennsylvania.l is this stretch of i-95 to the country? >> ed rendell: it's the nation's number one highway. 22 miles of it goes through the city of philadelphia. there are 15 structurally deficient bridges in that 22- mile stretch. and to fix them would cost $7 billion, to fix all the roads and the structurally deficient bridges in that 22-mile stretch. >> kroft: rendell says no one knows where the money is going to come from, and this stretch of i-95 has already had one brush with disaster. in 2008, two contractors from the pennsylvania department of transportation stopped to get a sausage sandwich, and parked their cars under this bridge. >> rendell: and fortunately, they wanted that sausage sandwich because they saw one of these piers with an eight-foot gash in it about five inches wide. and oh, they knew automatically that this bridge was in deep trouble. >> kroft: the section of 1-95 was immediately shut down and blocked off while construction crews buttressed the column with steel girders. it

. >> former pennsylvania governor ed rendell is watching the returns as they come in tonight.us. tom wolf has held a double-digit lead over tom corbett since the may primaries. what are your predictions for tonight? >> well, i think tom wolf is going to be winning but it will be closer than the polls indicated. the last polls were 13% to 14%. i think it's probably going to be 8%, 9%, 10% margin. but that's a healthy margin. pennsylvania is a purple state in presidential elections where it is always close, 2.5 points, 3 points. an 8 to 9% victory is the equivalent of a landslide. >> governor rendell, looking beyond the election tonight, what does pennsylvania need to do to succeed? >> well, he's got to find a way to generation more economic growth. you know, we have over a billion dollar deficit and it's basically because we are 50 out of 50 states in job creation. when i was in office, we were 9 out of 50 states. taxes means revenue, and revenue means we can do a lot of things we need to do. so tom wolf's first task will be to balance the budget. but his second task will be to

let me bring in governor rendell. it seems if all you do is give basic amnesty to people here illegally, or without documents, if you want to put it that way, you're not dealing with the long-term problem of people coming here without permission, basically, from our government. you're not fixing the problem at all. you're saying, we'll have the problem of illegal immigration. as a band-aid, i'll help the people here. it doesn't seem like a solution, mob of a problem. politically, you may have to do it. >> i think he has to do it. if i was the president, i would do it and i would say, i'm instituting this policy by executive order, but the executive order's going to sunset on august 31st of 2015. it's my hope the congress will act and send me a comprehensive bill that will allow me to let this executive order go out of operation. but if they don't, i reserve the right to extend it. i think that's the right tone. >> jonathan, what do you think of that? you have his job basically putting together all these policy implica

. >> reporter: wolf compares corbett spending to that of his predecessor ed rendell, but governor rendellad the benefit of lots of federal stimulus dollars to boost school spending. that money was never meant to be on-going funding source. so it's not fair for wolf to count that against corbett. the other hand corbett uses big increases in pension contributions to argue he's boosted school spending. but that money doesn't wind up in classrooms. he goes to retired teachers. so the fact checkers argue it's a somewhat bogus boast. the truth may lie in between the competing claims but the dollar figures may ultimately prove meaningless. says cap land -- >> people tend not to look at the actual numbers. they have a perception, and that's what they go on, when they go to the polls to vote. >> reporter: if that is in fact the case then democrats may have won the perception battle already. governor corbett's job approval numbers this year have been underwater. and among those who think he's done just a fair or even a poor job as governor, the polling shows school funding tops their list of compla

ed rendell makes a good point. the main message from last night the american people are totally fed up. they're not happy with where we are right now. they're not happy with where we're headed. it they took their anger out last night on democrats. the republicans should not be skipping you this the hall because people are frustrated. nothing is getting done. the one word we keep hearing, we'll work together. we need -- >> but it's a word. we want to see -- >> compromise, a word we never hear. you think about the next two years. the governor mention ad few things. the corporate tax reform is one trade. infrastructure. nothing big. we have to look at this in a proper perspective. the president does move for on immigration, wove seen what happens before when he did with it the health care bill. responds don't respond well to that. >> let's talk about that. i was in a meeting with president obama this afternoon. he met with six or seven of us civil rights leaders. talked about immigration and voting rights. immigration

we have with us our panel this morning, ed rendell and formama turkal. so, this "times" story that we're talking about the tea party reaction to how mitch mcconnell reacted to the election is interesting to me. the republican leadership for mcconnell now seems to be sending this signal, hey, we might have a revote on obama care repeal. we don't actually think that is going to happen and we want it move on to other stuff pretty quickly and now hearing the sounds from the tea party. wait, no, we have this power and we want to use it for an all-out war on obama care. who wins that fight? >> i think, like you said, sort of right on cue that they started objecting immediately and a peace in the "daily collar" was sort of an interesting note about this. boehner and mcconnell announced their agenda behind the pay wall of "wall street journal" which angered a lot of activists. what mcconnell was announcing. let's move forward on trade. these are things the business community wants. i think boehner and mcconnell will push forward so they can show they will govern
