SANCHEZ: Earlier this hour we talked about one of the biggest issues, if not the biggest issue, for most Americans -- jobs. But there's another pocketbook issue a lot of you are concerned with. I want you to look at this. This is a $13 trillion financial hole this country is in, a hole that keeps growing year after year after year. Remember the cancer quote that I shared with you this week? It's from Erskine Bowles, a Democrat who co-chairs the debt commission appointed by the president of the United States. Here it is from Bowles talking to the National Governors Association meeting. This is Sunday.</s>BOWLES: This debt is like a cancer. It is truly going to destroy the country from within.</s>SANCHEZ: Comparing the debt to a cancer that will destroy the country from within if we don't get it under control. Sobering stuff, and Bowles says there is no way that we can grow our way out of it. So what can Congress do? Cut spending? Increase taxes? Reduce taxes? Leave it alone? Does Congress have the political will to do whatever it needs to do in this case? I'm going to be taking a really good, hard look at that tomorrow with two men responsible for tackling the problem. Why? These two fellows are members of the president's debt commission. These are Democrats, Senator Kent Conrad of North Dakota and Republican Senator Judd Gregg of New Hampshire. Both of them are on our show specifically addressing this. Write it down, get your DVR ready, tell your friends and neighbors. Levi Johnston is back in the news. He's been called a liar, and now Sarah Palin's future son-in-law? How did that happen? That's next on "The List." Stay with us.
