This week on RadioNation with Laura Flanders, we take a roller coaster ride through a country on the verge of change and make some bold predictions about Election 2008. This Tuesday it's a new type of ground game up against old dog whistle racism and vote suppression versus rising hopes of a Democratic landslide. Chris Hayes and Leslie Savan sound off on the Presidential race; John Nichols previews the Senate, the Congress, and the impact of third parties; Andrew Gumbel assesses the threat of widespread vote suppression; and Ari Melber and Ludovic Blain ask if Tuesday will be the last stand for racist campaign politics. Listen to the broadcast here.
