An update from the crowded sidewalks of Washington, D.C.
The streets and sidewalks of Washington, D.C. are filling up with excited people from across the nation and around the world as the final preparation for Barack Obama’s swearing in as president get underway. We check in with Capitol News Connection’s Todd Zwillich who is on the podium waiting for the President-elect, Femi Oke who is on the increasingly crowded sidewalks of D.C., and the New York Times’ Marcus Mabry.
