------------------------------------------------------ The Hardball Briefing On MSNBC ------------------------------------------------------
The GOP's back! Republican governors are meeting today in Miami to discuss the future of the Republican Party. Of course, the conference is also filled with 2012 White House hopefuls including Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin (R). Tonight Gov. Haley Barbour (R-MS) will join us from the meeting to give us his take on the party. For the meeting schedule: http://www.rga.org/lib/2008-Annual-Conference-Schedule.pdf Also, is there anything more American than the U.S. auto industry? Democrats are now urging emergency help for an industry in desperate trouble. Should the auto industry be forced to make it on its own? Is it just too big and important to be allowed to die? We'll ask author and New York Times columnist Tom Friedman. Don't miss his column in the New York Times: http://www.nytimes.com/2008/11/12/opinion/12friedman.html?_r=1&hp&oref=slogin Plus, would you believe we're living through the Obama recession? Or that Barack Obama might use Gestapo tactics? That's just some of the overheated rhetoric we've been hearing from conservatives. Air America's Mark Green and radio talk show host Heidi Harris will discuss. Also, what are some of President Bush's greatest regrets? We'll bring you the interview that has everyone talking in tonight's Politics Fix with Newsweek's Howard Fineman and New York Times columnist Bob Herbert.
