Senate Republicans filibuster their colleague Chuck Hagel. They claim they want more time and information. Will Obama's choice for Defense Secretary get a vote? The President channels his inner FDR during the State of the Union and proposes solutions for the redistribution of income like preschool and raising the minimum wage.

Joining us today is former Minnesota Congressman and Republican strategist, Vin Weber.
