Dear Hardballers,
Welcome back to the members of Congress!
Hardball political analyst Bob Shrum has Washington buzzing with his new book,
"No Excuses: Concessions of a Serial Campaigner." Tonight, the veteran of the
Kerry, Edwards, Gore and countless other Democratic campaigns shares the real
stories from the frontlines and inside the war room....Pay attention folks
because you won't hear anywhere else - don't miss it. Read what the New York
Times has to say today about the book:

in The Hardball debate tonight: Why is Presidnet Bush saying that Iraq i soging
to be like Korea....Is that an honest comparison? Decision 2008: Will Democrats
pull it together to capitalize on Republican weaknesses, or will the elephants
stamp out the donkeys again? Sunday, Shrum duked it out on NBC's "Meet the
Press" with fellow campaign strategists James Carville, Mary Matalin and Mike
Murphy. Tonight, Republican consultant Mike Murphy is back for round two. If
you don't catch this week's "Meet the Press," you'll want to watch it after our
Hardball debate. Click here to check out entire show online:

Plus, reporter Eric Alterman planned on covering Sunday's Democratic debate for
The Nation he didn;t plan on being arrested...Here is his story tonight.. He'll
be here tonight to tell us what happened, and stick around as we bring in the
National Journal's Carl Cannon, whose cover story on what is fair game in a
candidates personal life is a "must read" and Jennifer Senior from New York
Magazine - who recently called running for president "the last remaining freak
show in the United States" - to debate all the hot news of the day. Age,
marriage, religion: are personal questions on the campaign trail insight into a
candidate's authenticity, or fodder for gossip? How much does the public
really have the right to know? Plus, CBS Evening News anchor Katie Couric
takes a political stand on D.C. voting rights.
