The Hardball Briefing On MSNBC
------------------------------------------------------
Scott McClellan stands his ground!
President Bush's former spokesman strongly defended his memoir this morning.
Will voters buy McClellan's account of the case for the Iraq war? And will this
story ultimately end up hurting Sen. McCain?
Next, Sen. Clinton continues to make her case for the nomination, writing in a
letter to superdelegates that they should consider the popular vote in deciding
their endorsement. Hardball's David Shuster will have the report and then we'll
talk to two Democratic advisers about reaction to Clinton's claims.
And in just two days, the Democratic Party's rules committee will decide one of
the most contentious issues in the race - what do to about Florida and
Michigan's delegates. Tonight we'll talk to two Florida representatives who
have very different ideas about what should happen.
Plus, how much does McCain want to be seen with Pres. Bush? Hardball's Big
Number should have some insight for you - don't miss it!
We'll then take a look at the latest war of words between Obama and McCain over
Iraq during tonight's Politics Fix.
