This Sunday: The Senate gears up for a potential confirmation battle over nominee Elena Kagan, the Solicitor General and former Dean of Harvard Law School. Will the President's choice for the highest court in the land get the votes she needs? We will hear from the leader of the Senate Republicans, Mitch McConnell in his first sit down interview since Kagan's nomination and a leading democrat on the powerful Judiciary Committee, Senator Chuck Schumer. Plus, how will this fight impact immigration and Wall Street reform?
Then, our roundtable weighs in on a busy week for President Obama. A historic pick for the Supreme Court; and on the heels of the failed terror attack by the Pakistani-Taliban, we’ll have a visit from the leader of Afghanistan. All this, while voters around the country continue to show their anger at Washington, throwing out two long time Congressional incumbents. How is the President and his party faring? And what can we expect in this Tuesday's primary elections in key races. We'll ask: Newsweek's Jonathan Alter, Author of the new book "The Promise: President Obama, Year One"; The Wall Street Journal's Peggy Noonan; Republican Strategist Mike Murphy; and Democratic Strategist Bob Shrum.
