the driver of a sedan got wedged underneath a big rig.was reported more than one hour ago and we have had several lanes blocked. obviously it is a major artery for the east bay commutes of the backup continues to grow. maybe we can see some of these delays, we have a sea of brake lights. the cars are not moving too fast and there are no major alternates in the area. we check live traffic centers across 680. obviously you do not want to get on to 580 and get stuck in this mess unless you like sitting in traffic. it is a fatal accident so the investigation is still not wrapped up and emergency crews are still on the scene. a couple of other things are going on, 880, the nimitz, this camera actually looks ok for in north oakland. westbound 237 looks pretty good out of milpitas heading toward san jose and the golden gate bridge is pretty quiet as well. all mass-transit is running on time. >> the state legislature is back from a summer recess and they have a lot of work to get done in just one month. one of the hot topics is the battle over th

over the last few months, you can see what's known as a wedge pattern. that's a wedge pattern. this matters because it now looks like the fxe may be breaking out of the wedge to the upside. again, these are all nascent moves, trying to catch the breakout ahead of time. he's saying this is our next move. even more important, i want to look at the stochastics. it tells whether securities have become overbought or oversold. if people been reaching too much, bouncing, selling it too low. the euro, extreme oversold territory. happened five times since 2010. every time we got a bounce. it's pretty clear. produced gains of 16% to 30%. in may, you caught a brief bounce and right back down. if you bought then and held on, your losses would be pretty small. you combine the oversold read raedings on the stochastics, worked 4 out of 5 times, with the breakout wedge formation, collins believes that's a situation where the risk-reward is very attractive. possibly too good to ignore. now, the best looking picture by far in his opinion is the euro's monthly char. so we're extending the time fr

over the last few months, you can see what's known as a wedge pattern. that's a wedge pattern. and this matters because it now looks like the fxe may be breaking out of the wedge to the upside. again, these are all nascent moves, trying to catch the breakout ahead of time. if the breakout is for real, it's got a lot of room to run before it hits the top of the channel at the 120 change mark. he's saying this is our next move. even more important, i want to look at the stochastics. terrific indicator that tells where the security has become overught or oversold. do people reach too much, have they been sellg it too low? right now the fxe and by extension the euro, extreme oversold territory. very oversold territory. happened five times since april 2010. every time we got a bounce. look at that. see? it's pretty clear. last time, no. produced gains of 16% to 30%. the last time it got oversold in may, you caught a brief bounce and right back down. that said, if you bought then and held on, your losses would be pretty small. you combine the oversold readings on the stochastics, wor

where there is no wedge, and actually, this is probably a pretty good example of them missing the wedge of welfare and trying to get it back, but they've tried the wedge between obama and clinton, and it just doesn't exist. and i think that the president believes that, again, welfare reform was built on state experimentation. he granted 44 waivers before the law was even passed to put people into work. and i think as long as this waiver authority is being used for the purposes that he wanted, which is to end welfare, as the way we used to know it, and really support work, i think that he'll stick with president obama. >> cal, i want to go to you. as someone who has sort of witnessed mitt romney's career thus far and has done a great job reporting on it, can you expound on romney's 2005 position on welfare when he was governor of massachusetts, a time mitt romney would not like to have a lot of sunlight shed on? >> sure, alex. it's interesting to note, you know, john's absolutely right. he was advocating a similar type of waiver at the time in 2005. but it's important not to overreach on

romney's real strategy was to drive a personal wedge between president clinton and president obama. >t obama tucked away the clinton doctrine in his large drawer of discarded ideas. it's enough to make you wonder it was a personal beef with the clintons, but it runs much deeper than that. >> personal beef with the clintons, where does he come up with this stuff? make no mistake about it, they've had a complex relationship over the years. president clinton is going to bat for president obama in a big way. he'll have a speaking role at the convention. and today he's featured in a new add. >> this election to me is about which candidate is more likely to return us to full employment. this is a clear choice. the republican plan is to cut more taxes on upper income people and go back to deregulation. that's what got us in trouble in the first place. president obama has a plan to rebuild america from the ground up. it only works if there is a strong middle class. that's what happened when i was president. >> now, that ad will run in eight key states, including six that president clinton won

mitt romney keeps trying to use the economy as a wedge and lying about the economy as a wedge as wellg the 2009 budget on this president. >> yeah. >> john: to top it off the stimulus is going to be, i think, more relevant than ever when you consider we were losing 750,000 jobs per month, my friends at the time george w. bush left office, it was the stimulus that stopped that hemorrhaging the stimulus was a tourniquet on our job less. has the recovery been as fast as anyone would like? of course it hasn't but let's not forget they keep taking away their wedges. this is like in '04 when john kerry was going to run and using the iraq war as an issue. when mccain was going to run against barack obama using his inexperience as a wedge issue sarah palin took it away. mitt romney's only hope is to use the economy as a wedge. no matter what he uses, lucy keeps snatching the football away. you had paul ryan who decries it and says how horrible it is. we've had great video of him supporting all of bush's stimulus right down to standing on the floor of the house and saying how a stimulus will he

a wedge within the republican party and going to the fall election, you have romney and ryan not owneir records but defending the statements and actions of akin all the way through. listen, politically, people can say this is good for the democrats. this is bad for the country. this is not the debate and discourse you want. big issues in the country, once we've kind of fallen to this level how a member of congress running for office doesn't understand they'd be completely disqualified running for higher office, i do not know. >> thank you. among the first republicans who called for todd akin to step down from the u.s. senate race in missouri was current massachusetts senator scott brown. one person who turned the criticism back on senator brown was tony perkins of the family research council who said brown should be careful and, quote, has been off the reservation on a number of republican issues, conservative issues i should say. his support among conservatives shallow. those are perkins' words. joining me from boston, noah berman, state house reporter for the boston globe. thank yo

now, first i would say as far as this being a wedge issue, the democrats already in the u.s. house of representatives and through the president have made clear we are opposed to bans on same-sex marriage. the house voted. i'm puzzled. people get it backwards. a platform is supposed to tell the elected officials how they should vote. we have already voted. in the house ten days ago, on an amendment to reaffirm the defense of marriage act, the republicans voted 230-5 to reaffirm this cancellation of our marriages and the democrats voted 161-17 against it. so the two parties are already split there. but the point is, there is no federal law to be passed. look at the situation with race. when there were states that would not allow interracial marriage, even after the civil rights acts has passed in '64 and '65, there was no federal law saying that interracial marriage had to be allowed. it was done by the supreme court. the constitutional framework has always been states decide who gets married. our objection is that for the first time the federal government is picking and choosi
