The Hardball Briefing On MSNBC
------------------------------------------------------
One GOP contender will end the night with 2008's biggest prize to date -- 57
delegates from Florida's winner-takes-all primary. Will the Sunshine state
anoint a frontrunner? Or will the crowded contest continue on to Super Tuesday?
Tune in as our panel of analysts tells you what's at stake tonight.
Giuliani has lost six straight primary contests. With polls showing this former
frontrunner lagging behind his rivals, is Giuliani's candidacy viable if he
loses again? Radio talk show hosts Mark Green and Ed Schultz will tell you what
they think.
Next, while Clinton leads the polls in delegate-rich Super Tuesday states,
Obama has won a huge symbolic endorsement this week from the Kennedy clan.
Obama supporter Rep. Robert Wexler (D-FL) and Clinton supporter Rep. Kendrick
Meek (D-FL) will tell you why their candidate has the momentum heading into
next Tuesday.
Plus, which key Bush adviser was dumped as a commencement speaker? And how have
the polls influenced Giuliani's campaign strategy?
We'll take a look at these stories and more in our Politics Fix.
And, be sure to tune at 6pm ET for MSNBC's live coverage of the Florida
Republican primary, anchored by Chris Matthews and Keith Olbermann.
