Forecast: Dreier, Then Snowe
Produced by:
We discuss the Senate's rejection of the Blunt Amendment and how the debate on contraception coverage is costing the Republicans. Also, just four days before a visit from Israel's Prime Minister Netanyahu, President Obama warns Iran that he's not bluffing on the military option. Plus, moderate GOP Senator Olympia Snowe of Maine announces she won't run again, saying the Senate is too sharply divided to get anything done.
