Episode Detail
Undecided Voters (#110)
Original Air Date: Thursday, November 8, 2007
The Iowa Journal discusses the candidates and the 2008 election with Time magazine and ABC News political analyst Mark Halperin. Halperin has covered White House races for nearly two decades, bringing a wealth of hands-on expertise to his new book, The Undecided Voter’s Guide to the Next President: Who the Candidates Are, Where They Come From, and How You Can Choose, which covers the men and woman vying to become the 44th President of the United States. We also take a look at Orange City with Out and About correspondent Dan Kaercher and examine the state's headline news with Iowa Public Radio's Jeneane Beck.
