Deja Vu Junkie

Another Wednesday, another battle over the spending bill for Iraq. This will come as a surprise, but a democratic-led congress says they have a bill in mind, and the president threatens a veto. Deja vu all over again. Leave it to our Political Junkie to tell us what it all means. And, this week, there's more on the table than another squabble in Washington. Republican presidential hopefuls debated last week, Philly chooses a new mayor, and if the fight for the earliest primary continues, we may have to vote tomorrow. Send us your questions and comments for Ken Rudin.

Your political junkie talked breadwinners over heartwinners. It took a caller comment for him to talk about Ron Paul. Has Ron Paul been eliminated as a canidate simply because he has less money than McCain and others? I expect more out of NPR programming.
