January 31 - Winning and Losing in Florida; The Backdoor "NAFTA of The Pacific" Deal; Newt The Nasty's Long March

Full Program

Part 1

Part 2

Then joining us in the studio is Matthew Kavenagh, the Director of U.S. Policy and Advocacy at Health GAP (Global Access Project).  He joins us to discuss what he considers to be a backdoor deal with Corporate America, the Trans Pacific Free Trade Agreement the Obama administration’s U.S. Trade Representative has just made nearby in secret at a Beverly Hills hotel. A deal that leaves labor, environment, AIDS and public health activists frustrated and confused.

Part 3

Then finally Howard Schweber, a professor of Political Science and Law at the University of Wisconsin joins us. He has an article at the Huffington Post “Newt Gingrich and The Politics of Resentment”. We discuss Newt the nasty, tonight’s increasingly incendiary losing candidate, who seems determined to carry on tearing down Romney, the establishment candidate, all the way to August when the Republicans convene in Tampa.
