Coming up on 'This Week' ... Sen. Joe Lieberman (I-Conn.), Sen. Kent Conrad (D-N.D.) and Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison (R-Texas)

— -- As the president prepares to deliver his State of the Union address, three top Senators come to "This Week" to debate the state of our nation.

"This Week" anchor Christiane Amanpour asks Sens. Joe Lieberman, Kent Conrad and Kay Bailey Hutchison what the President needs to achieve in his speech next week. Will the health care law survive Republican efforts to repeal it? What can the President and the Congress do about jobs? With a call for a new tone in Washington in the wake of the Tucson shooting, does bipartisanship have a chance? And why have these three Senators decided to retire?

As those longtime Senators prepare to leave Washington, Christiane talks with three new Republican members of Congress. It's a behind-the-scenes, all-access view of the Capitol as you've never seen it. Rep. Chris Gibson (R-N.Y.), Rep. Bobby Schilling (R-Ill.) and Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah) share their views on how they hope to change Washington, whether they can keep their campaign promises and their thoughts about the Tea Party movement.

Plus our roundtable with George Will, Nobel Prize-winning economist and New York Times Columnist Paul Krugman, former Bush political strategist Matthew Dowd, and Democratic strategist Donna Brazile will take a hard look at the tough compromises that both the White House and newly emboldened Republicans on Capitol Hill will have to make if Washington is to avoid gridlock.
