For Sunday, June 1, 2008

You have three guesses who is Russert's main guest, and the first two do not count.

FOX News Sunday (FOX): Host Chris Wallace talks to Clinton mouthpiece Howard Wolfson and one of Obama's Michigan stooges, Dave Bonior.

This Week (ABC): Host George Stephanopoulos speaks with the increasingly relevant Terence McAuliffe.

Meet the Press (NBC): Host Tim Russert talks to… WAIT FOR IT… Scott McClellan. He also chats with Obama surrogate Tom Daschle and Hillary hit man Harold Ickes.

Face the Nation (CBS): Host Bob Schieffer chats with Obama supporter Senator Claire McCaskill of Missouri, Hillary supporter Ed Rendell of Pennsylvania, then to Hillary tool Mandy Grunwald.

Late Edition (CNN): Host Wolf Blitzer interviews Senators Chris Dodd and Bill Nelson; South Carolina Governor Mark Sanford; Bonior and Ickes; and his usual cast of millions.

FNS, MTP, FTN, and LE do the dueling-surrogates thing to one extend or the other, while Steph sticks to the only thing he knows: Clinton (channeled through McAuliffe). I referred to Terence as "increasingly relevant," because Hillary's stock is again rising. It's like a Phoenix… 'cept that's in Arizona, so they lose.

Last time I saw Bonior, he was with Jihad Jim McDermott in Baghdad, making politically whoopee with the late Saddam Hussein. Last time I saw Daschle, he might have been courting some dead South Dakota Sioux to cast their ballots for Tim Johnson.

Rendell is on FTN again. He recently received praise from former Obama surrogate Oprah. He sent her a letter promising to overhaul the regulations involving dog breeding kennels in the blue Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

And it looks like a good time will be had by all. I'll watch, write it all down, and report back to you tomorrow.
