| 0:20.0 | This is CBS I'm the world I'm John Batcher with my colleague Elizabeth Peak. |
| 0:24.0 | Columnist at the Hill, columnist at Fox News, and she has a column at Fox News looking at the Washington Post ABC poll, I believe most recently. |
| 0:33.0 | Other posts reflect this. |
| 0:35.0 | The President of the United States, despite the fact that we're not in a recession, despite the fact that the jobs market is strong, |
