The Hardball Briefing On MSNBC
------------------------------------------------------
Another day, another DeLay news cycle. Tonight, we'll look at a post-DeLay
Congress. Can Democrats seize control of the House and Senate this year?
What kind of impact will his absence leave on the Republican and Democratic
parties? Tonight, Chairman of the Democratic National Committee Gov. Howard
Dean will join Chris to respond to the resignation and detail the Democratic
agenda.
What will summer bring for Tom DeLay? And exactly what is life like after
serving in Congress? We'll ask former DeLay House colleague and former
Congressman Vin Weber (R-MN).
For details on the inner workings of the East Wing, Ron Kessler will share
details of his new book on First Lady Laura Bush.
And for analysis of the House without DeLay and a White House without the
Hammer's help, we'll turn to MSNBC Political Analyst Pat Buchanan and former
San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown.
Be sure to tune in for tomorrow's Hardball for an interview with Senator John
Kerry, who today in the New York Times called for a May 15th deadline for the
Iraqi government.
