Part 2

Then, as billions are starting to pour into last-minute attack ads that will carpet-bomb the swing states, we look into how effective negative ads are with John Geer the Chair of Political Science at Vanderbilt University and the author of “In Defense of Negativity: Attack Ads in Presidential Campaigns”. We discuss how much presidential debates can alter opinions created from months of negative advertizing in a political climate where facts seem to matter less and less.

Part 3

Then finally we discuss perhaps the most challenging issue facing the planet that was not mentioned or brought up in last night’s debate, global warming. New York Times reporter Andrew Revkin, the creator of the Time’s Dot Earth blog joins us to discuss what wasn’t discussed and critique what was discussed; cheap gas, clean coal, more pipelines, more drilling and more jobs.
