California GOP Eat Their Own as Party's Base Crumbles

Hosted by
Republicans launch a recall campaign against one of their own, and tonight's Angels game is cancelled after a promising rookie pitcher is killed. On our rebroadcast of today's To the Point, scientists of human behavior are helping President Obama "nudge" Americans to make "better" choices.

Pitcher Nick Adenhart threw six shutout innings for the Angels last night in his Major League debut. He was later killed in a hit-and-run accident. We have more on that and Republican efforts to recall one of their own legislators. On our rebroadcast of today's To the Point, scientists of human behavior who helped Obama get to the White house are now helping him "nudge" Americans to make "better" choices. Is it psychological trickery or a subtle new form of leadership in a complex and confusing world?
