FOX News Sunday (FNS): Host Chris Wallace goes all Debbie on us, talking to superdelegates Debbie Dingell of Michigan and Debbie Wasserman Schultz.of Florida. Then he talks War on Terror with Congressman Mike Pence of Ohio.

This Week (ABC): Host George Stephanopoulos is going to talk Florida & Michigan with DNC boss Howard Dean, Senator Carl Levin (D-Michigan), and Governor Charlie Crist (R-Florida).

Meet the Press (NBC): Tim Russert does the surrogate thing: Chuck Schumer for Obama, Governor Ed Rendell of world famous Pennsylvania for Hillary.

Face the Nation (CBS): Host Bob Schieffer starts with Howard Dean and the surrogate thing with Florida Senator Bill Nelson for Hillary and Massachusetts Senator John Kerry, reporting for duty, for Obama. Then he goes with Ed Rollins and Joe Trippi.

Late Edition (CNN): Host Wolf Blitzer chats with Marc Morial of National Urban League, Russian chess guy Garry Kasparov, and then a little mismatch between two Senators: Jon Kyl of Arizona and Bob “Junior” Casey of Pennsylvania.

More surrogates plus some folks to discuss the Dems’ problems with Michigan/Florida. I hope either Steph or Schieffer asks DNC Dean why he personally loused things up so badly with those two States. This is potentially the most divisive political contest in recent memory: first African American, first woman, with the losing side crying foul and walking out. And this whole thing is labeled by a giant photograph of a grinning and whooping Howard Dean. “YEAAARRRRGH!”

Perhaps Mr. Morial of the Urban League will address what might happen if the Dem nomination is stolen from Obama by the Clintons and their smoke-filled fatcats.

Junior Casey (D-Pennsylvania) should not be allowed by his fellow Dems to be on television, but if you get a chance to see him, note that he has a single eyebrow. For his race against Rick Santorum, his campaign had him shave the middle to make it appear as if he had two eyebrows.
