2Political Podcast Episode 42 is now available. You can listen to it on the widget on the right side of my blog, or you can go the podcast site, 2political.com. You can leave comments there as well as download or listen to any episode.
After our Special Day, when Arthur displays his arithmetic prowess, we begin with a columnist's reaction to Jon Stewart's rally before moving on to a few of the Teapublican candidates and then on to races were voter turnout by Democrats will really matter. That leads to talk about voters whose apathy may deliver Congress to the Republicans. Arthur is still filled with optimism because a small shift of voters could retain Congress for Democrats—he even sticks up for Blue Dog Democrats! Jason is less optimistic.
Next week we’ll take a look at the election results, especially some key races.
