this one in south carolina. so now you've got the justice department saying that that law which requires officers to check for immigration status as we've seen in a couple other states, as you know s. unconstitutional. that coming from the justice department against south carolina. kelly wright has the details. kelly, what does the federal government want south carolina to do about its new immigration law that they say they implemented because nobody else would do it for them? >> reporter: martha, let's point out the south carolina immigration law does not go into effect until january 1st, but the federal government wants a judge to prevent that from ever happening, in fact, you may recall the justice department filed similar lawsuits against arizona and alabama because it determined those states were interfering with the federal government's enforcement of immigration. here's how attorney general eric holder describes the lawsuit against south carolina, in a statement, he says it is understandable that communit

pleasant, south carolina. the demonstrators were part of the occupy wall street protests and here is how it unfolded. >> the defense department is undertaking the first steps to trim $400 billion from its budget. if targeted carefully, those cuts can be made and in particular looks like they will be made over the next ten years. but however, if the pentagon will be forced to live within additional $600 billion in cuts as may happen as a result of the failure of the super committee to come to a realistic budget agreement in the next few weeks, then i believe that we will do very significant damage to our military capabilities and i stand against that action. we can make cuts, but they have to be made strategically and not randomly on a political whim. we can accomplish significant reductions in spending by cutting wasteful federal spending. yes, there is some, even in the defense department, including unnecessary pentagon programs and an often dysfunctional procurement system. they need to be called out. one ma

so how does newt defend this to south carolina voters? >> well, he says that he didn't need the money. >> what do you mean? >> well, he didn't need it. why would he lobby? >> i heard he was broke. >> no, he was at a campaign event the other day and he said, let me be blunt, i didn't need the money. >> i did no lobbying of any kind period. for a practical reason. i'm going to be really direct, okay. i was charging $60,000 a speech. and the number of speeches was going up, not down. normally we gradually sell fewer every year. >> so newt's justification to the good people of south carolina was i was so rich making $65,000 for 30-minute speeches, making more money in a 30-minute speech because of the access i could grant people that school teachers make in an entire year in south carolina. an elementary teacher in south carolina will make $48,000 for 12 month's work. truck drivers make $30,000 in south carolina for an entire year's work. so newt's defense to the good people of south carolina is i was so rich selling access, making a 30-minut

iowa, new hampshire, south carolina and florida. who has to win and where? mitt romney can survive a loss in iowa, but can michele bauchmann? newt gingrich can afford a loss in new hampshire, but for mitt it may be win or go home. the win or go home january races. next, president obama's chances of beating the nominee. where does he stand in the crucial battleground states? historically, how have other presidents done with approval ratings in the mid-40s one year out? and that's where he is. plus we'll looking potential running mates. could marco rubio seal florida for romney? could we see a gingrich/cain ticket? and most interesting of all, would president obama ever consider dumping joe biden for hillary clinton if things looked really bad? what about a third-party run? an independent candidate would almost surely throw the election to one side or the other. but which one? this is no fantasy, we'll be joined by someone who is making sure a third candidate will be on the ballot in all 50 states. >>> finally, amateur hour, we'll go to the videotape for the c
