The Hardball Briefing On MSNBC
------------------------------------------------------
First up, great expectations?
The new cover of Newsweek says it all: Yes He Can - But He Sure Hasn't Yet. Is
President Obama disappointing liberals or were the expectations too great?
We'll discuss the expectations of President Obama with MSNBC Political Analysts
Harold Ford and Newsweek's Howard Fineman.

Next up, the power of cable.
The White House has continued its war with Fox Is the White House losing this
fight even if it didn't start the war? We'll analyze the conflict with Vanity
Fair's Michael Wolff and DC Correspondent for The Nation John Nichols.

Plus, the response to Cheney.
Surprising figures have criticized Dick Cheney for his "dithering" statement
concerning President Obama's Afghanistan policy. Senator John McCain, Senator
Orrin Hatch, and Columnist George Will all hit Cheney on his statement. Will
said "a bit of dithering might have been in order before the invasion of Iraq
in search of weapons that didn't exist." We'll play Hardball with former Deputy
Assistant to Vice President Cheney Ron Christie and former San Francisco
Democratic Mayor Willie Brown.

the New York gubernatorial race, the expectations of President Obama, and the
