Hour 1 Segment 1 Cenk, Ben, and John Iadarola hosting today. Video of Little Face Mitt. Talk about how Romney could win the popular vote and why Obama’s strong debate performances aren’t panning out as well as they should. Video of an ad from an arm of the AFL-CIO outlining how Bain Capital outsourced jobs to China and took down the American flag to accommodate them. Segment 2 A convicted tax cheat was in the crowd of donors at Romney’s now infamous fundraiser where he bashed 47% of the country. After cheating on hundreds of thousands of dollars, his monetary fee for his crimes was only $30,000. President Obama finally openly said that if Romney gets in office, the SCOTUS will overturn Roe v. Wade. After Donald Trump’s offer to give $5 million to Obama to release his records, Michelle Malkin criticized him, and a Twitter fight ensued. Reinforcing President Obama’s point about bayonets and horses with a graph illustrating our Navy’s power since 1916, the time when we had more ships.
