The Hardball Briefing On MSNBC
------------------------------------------------------
Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) picked up three key endorsements this weekend -- is he
the "comeback kid" of the 2008 election?
We'll talk to Sen. Joe Lieberman (I-CT) who endorsed McCain earlier today and
then break down the biggest political stories with Newsweek's Howard Fineman
and the National Journal's Linda Douglass.
Next, former presidential contender Ralph Nader plays Hardball! Tonight Nader
will tell you what he thinks of the '08 field and whether he's considering
another third party run.
With less than three weeks before the Iowa caucus, the '08 candidates are
canvassing the state in a last-minute push to sway undecided voters. Hardball's
David Shuster will report from the campaign trail in Iowa and then NBC News
analyst Charlie Cook will tell you what the primary polls are saying about the
race.
We'll then analyze the latest campaign action in our Politics Fix with the
Washington Post's Chris Cillizza, the Financial Times' Chrystia Freeland and
CQ's Jonathan Allen.
Plus, be sure to tune in to the Hardball Power Rankings live during the 7pm
edition of the show for a look at who's up and who's down in the race for the
2008 presidential nominations.
