but if you step back and tnk abohere we were four days ago versus where we are now, it's pretty remarkable how much the two sides have come to very close to reaching an actual deal. now the two sides are in this position where the job is to sell it to their different caucuses and make sure that the seams don't come unraveled in the coming days. once speaker boehner on friday decided he would retreat on republican opposition to raising tax rates, it became a matter of what you dial up and what you dial down as opposed to this philosophical debate we'veeen seeg sice t election. now that's what they're doing. the staff is meeting and deciding how much goes up in spending cuts. where does that from? they're deciding on how much revenue the package should have and where the threshold is for income in terms of raising tax rates. >> woodruff: todd zwillich from the speaker boehner side of all of this, how does it work? >> well, speaker boehner's staff and rep cons in congress despite some of the bluster today in congress are actually still feeling okay about the talks between the speaker and the

so a huge shoift in attitude is whatany tnk is called for. but back to the government, yes t was caught flat-footed, no question about it. for example, the home minister insisted that he wasn't obligated to talk to any demonstrated and ended up equating them to maoist rebels. so that, that was a comparison that really enraged a lot of people. >> suarez: during this same week the victim of another notorious rape committed suicide. has that just added fuel to the fire? >> all the while this furor was eruptg ove t gang rape in delhi, details emerged of this harrowing case in the punjab where a 17-year-old girl committed suicide. she was reported to have been diswrought about being gang raped during the volley this year, the hindu festival of light and being harassed by police who also refused to register her case. so again, more of these cases are coming out and i suppose they're hitting the headlines harder because of the-- because the-- because the country is in a recessive mood to see them. you know h this is a venting. these demonstrations a

>> (laughing) well, i haven't seen th letter, as i tnk you know. it's nice that the speaker would give me some credit for trying to do that. but what he is referring to is when i testified before the super committee, i tried to show these guys that if they truly wanted to ghettoing that they could ghettoing at that time. and basically as an example on discretionary spending they were talking about cuts between $200-$400 billion. look, ghettoing on $300 billion. on health care between $500 billion and $700 billion. there was $600 billion. another mandatoryhat got that number that came out is $300 billion. both were talking about changing to the superlative c.p.i. so you could get $200 billion there and you'd have $400 billion come out of interest. that would be $1.8 trillion on top of the 1.3 would give you 3.1 trillion. at that time, the speaker and the president were supposedly talking about having $800 billion in use. that would give you 3.9. i said that would be a good start. if you still need to reform the tax code, yo still needo do something

ought to have a voice in this conversation as well i tnk they can go ahead again, reassure that nobody is is going to be out trying to say we need to take away your shotgun or take away the kind of components that are part of american culture in terms of the right to hunt, the right to enjoy the outdoors with firearms, but i do think that simply saying that the status co- is acceptable and bemoaning another tragedy six or nine months from now without any real close examination of seein whatawsand rules and regulations need to be changed would be a real mistake and would not do... would not be the appropriate honoring the legacy of those poor kids whose lives were taken. quite honestly, i have to give my three daughters a better answer than i gave them on friday night. i've got to be able to say, you know, i was part of trying to at least get some level of solution so this kind of tragedy doesn't happen again. >> ifill: senator mark warner of virginia, thank you so much for joining us. >> thank you, gwen. >> woodruff: tomorrow night, we'll talk with connecticut's senator, joe lieberman.

there's an awful lot going on on that score, but i tnk hillary clinton may be able to keep herself aboveing the white house for this rice situation to be resolved. we fully expect president clinton to make -- excuse me, president obama to make his announcement about his national security team any day now. >> what do you hear with regards to that, david? are you hearing that susan race is going -- susan rice is going to get the nod or that the waters are shark infested and -- >> complete silence. i think it's between susan rice and john kerry. i think the ultimate decision will be made by the president himself and he's keeping his own council abthat. he's alleges got the cia slot to fill as well. there are rumors there may be changes on his national security team. but nobody is being very specific about it at this point. >> shira, just the optics of the gop engaged in -- in a days-long filibuster with regards to susan rice, attacking susan rice for days. is that a fight that they want to pick? >> you'd think they wouldn't want to pick this fight, especially when there are other well-quali
