Just months ago it seemed like Newt Gingrich would take any television appearance he could, while Mitt Romney refused. Now Gingrich’s media plan seems to be working as he rises in the polls, Romney keeps slipping. This week we’ll have Bloomberg’s Margaret Carlson, The Daily Caller’s Matt Lewis, and Politico’s editor-in-chief John Harris on to discuss this and the Trump debate. Harris will also talk about Politico’s new e-book. Republican and CNN contributor David Frum will also be on the show to talk about how he feels the conservative media is ruining the GOP. And no recent election is complete without the political parodies on shows like “Saturday Night Live” and “The Daily Show.” We’ll have Mediaite’s Rachel Sklar and Syracuse University pop culture professor Robert Thompson on to talk about the shows’ impact on the 2012 election.
