    The least productive Congress gives way to a new Congress today, just hours after the last session grappled with fiscal cliff legislation. Guest host Sara Terry looks at what's first on this term's agenda and who will wield power. What can this Congress get done? Will relationships among Republican legislators continue to fracture? Also, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton steps down from her latest post with the highest approval ratings of her lifetime. What legacy does she leave behind? Is another run for the White House likely in 2016?
