Fwd: BOTH SIDES NOW: Econ vs. Obama? GOP "Goldwaterized"?
Dear Friend,
Sitting in for Arianna Huffington and Mary Matalin, respectively, Hilary Rosen and Kellyanne Conway respond to three "Resolveds" as if formally debating three big topics of the week: do May's weak economic numbers tilt the re-election odds against Obama? will base-pandering fringe talk by GOP-wingers "Goldwaterize" the eventual nominee? did President Barack "Aiken" just declare victory and come home (soon) from Afghanistan? Click here to listen.
Also, in Quick Takes & Takeaways, we discuss whether a) our lawyer-president was right to overrule his Pentagon counsel and conclude that there is no need to go to Congress for a War Powers Act resolution on Libya, b) Sen. Richard Shelby can keep a straight face when he says that Peter Diamond, a Nobel Economics Prize winner, isn't qualified to be confirmed to the FED Board and c) whether Sen. John McCain simply misspoke or demogogically lied when he blamed, without any evidence, "illegal immigrants" for starting the Arizona wildfires. Talk about incendiary.
Best,
