NC, IN, JFK and OTHER LETTERS OF IMPORT


Speech writer and Presidential advisor, Ted Sorensen was at the center of many of the major events of the John F. Kennedy administration. He’s now sharing his that inside view in his book, 'Counselor: A Life at the Edge of History' We’ll find out not just what happened, but why and how the players thought and felt at the time. We leave comparisons to later and current Presidents to you.

Then, to comment on the Indiana and North Carolina primaries, David Wilhelm. He’s the Former DNC Chair, campaign manager for Clinton in '92 and current Obama Supporter. He’s also a super-delegate.

IN THE ENDLESS CAMPAIGN

Obama wins big in NC, Hillary takes Indiana by a hair. Here’s the latest delegate count.

Hillary wins Indiana but the press is using dire metaphors to describe her campaign.

On the ropes and Close to Oblivion … what does that even mean?

Someone should tell Clinton about this doom and gloom, as she has no plans to drop out. Should she? She hasn’t lost yet.

According to one blog someone is telling Clinton she should: Her long time supporter, Wesley Clark, is privately urging Hillary to quit the race.

We won’t hear about this from the candidate herself because, Hillary Clinton canceled all her morning talk show bookings and public appearances today.

What kind of judges would be appointed by the various candidates? John McCain says he likes John Roberts and Sam Alito ... not great news, but at least he didn't say Clarence Thomas.

Federal agents raided the offices of Special Counsel Scott Bloch who is charged with overseeing the protection of whistle blowers. He may have been doing the opposite and cracking down on his own staff.

FOLLOW UP: Here’s a video about the Pentagon correspondent cover-up that Paul Waldman and Lionel discussed on Monday.

After much hubbub over the Indiana law requiring citizens to show ID to vote, 12 nuns denied the right to vote. Not exactly a big story, but nuns tend to make headlines when they do non-religious things.

And much, much more …
