Buffett Rule: blocked. Senate Republicans voted down a move to open debate on the Buffett Rule. Will this hurt the GOP in the long run with middle class voters? We’ll ask Rep.

Time Deputy Managing Editor Nancy Gibbs and Time Executive Editor Michael Duffy give us a look under the hood with their new book, “The Presidents Club.” The real thing is actually a lot more interesting than Funny or Die‘s 2010 interpretation of the crew.
