    We discuss the latest setbacks to bail Europe out of its debt crisis. Also this week, critical comments from House Speaker John Boehner on President Obama's jobs plan. Plus, just how "presidential" are Rick Perry and Mitt Romney after the latest GOP candidates' debate? Finally, some response to the poverty data released this week by the Census Bureau. (Guest panelist David Winston fills in for Tony Blankley.)
