Obama plays basketball and Romney campaigns on Election Day
Can anyone other than Vice President Joe Biden himself imagine Joe Biden as a presidential candidate after all we've learned about him in the past four years while he has sat one heartbeat away from the presidency?
Chris is ready for election day. He reviews the latest news from the campaign trails and talks to key Republican candidates Tom Smith, Joe Kyrillos, Pat Meehan, Mike Fitzpatrick, Jim Gerlach and Pat Meehan.
While Mitt Romney talks about binders full of women, Democrats have ballots full of women.
Unfortunately, political poll after political poll reveals that the presidential election of 2012 has much to do – in fact, more to do – with the race of the presidential candidate than most anything else.
From Florida and Ohio early vote disasters with long lines to power outages in Connecticut, New Jersey and New York there are doubts that some people will have the opportunity to participate in this election.
On Friday, President Barack Obama told his supporters at a campaign rally – inside a public high school, no less – to vote for revenge!
Chris reviews the weekend of Presidential campaigning that culminated with Mitt Romney's stop in Bucks County.

As the focus begins to shift toward Tuesday's election, some political observers are wondering how Sandy will impact the presidential campaign.
The wife of Vice President Joe Biden is making several stops in Pennsylvania in support of President Barack Obama's re-election campaign.
As the campaign draws to a close it has become very apparent that Obama will return to the White House and that Harry Reid will lead a Democratic Senate.
If you're still looking for a reason to decide on which candidate to vote for, think about Obamacare and the fact that one report after another clearly shows that it's going to cost the nation much, much more than originally stated by President Obama and his administration.
The newspapers that are not endorsing President Barack Obama are extremely brave. They are to be positively recognized for their courage to stand up against the onslaught of the liberal media which refuses to speak in the best interest of the country as the presidential election nears.
In the final days of the campaign for president, Pennsylvania's 20 electoral votes are suddenly looming large.
Chris details Mitt Romney's visit to Bucks County this weekend, the continuing aftermath of Hurricane Sandy, and the indictment of former Penn State President, Graham Spanier. He talks to Steve Gates, from the American Coalition for Clean Coal Electricity, Steve Cordasco on Finance Friday, CBS 3's Beasley Reece to preview the Eagles Monday night game in New Orleans, and Steve Moore from the Wall Street Journal.
In an effort to make voting a little easier for New Jersey residents in the aftermath of Sandy, Governor Chris Christie announced the deadline for county clerks to accept mail-in ballot applications has been extended to the close of business on Friday, November 2.
Now, the question is: Is the country better off than it was four years ago? Anyone – including you – can answer that question.
Governor Christie went out of his way to praise the work that the President and his administration are doing, something that he got a lot of credit for...outside of the right-wing blogosphere.
As odd as it seems, President Barack Obama and Governor Chris Christie of New Jersey are in the midst of a marvelous "bromance".
Chris is disappointed in New Jersey Governor Chris Christie by allowing himself to be used in a photo-op by the President during his hurricane response. He talks to John Hayward from Human Events, Mitch Modell, the CEO of Modells, about being on the season premiere of Undercover Boss, as well as Pennsylvania Senate Candidate Tom Smith and Congressman Jon Runyan.
Whether it's because college kids are getting smarter or have just found better things to do with their energy and time over the past four years, there is a survey result which indicates that President Barack Obama's "star power" among the young is fading drastically in 2012 as compared to 2008.
Consider the economy, the job market, the recent horrendous occurrences in the Middle East before voting for a person because of his race, his social-issue promises, or any other rather selfish reasons.
Chris assesses the damage and response to Hurricane Sandy. He discusses the crossover of the political response to the hurricane into presidential campaign and the status of Pennsylvania as a fading blue state. He also talks to Politico's Kevin Cirlli and Maureen Ferguson from the Catholic Association.
When the storm and its headlines have passed, however, the questions about the Benghazi tragedy should continue full force as November 6 continues to near. During the much-needed questioning and impending investigation, it would be grand if President Obama would remain presidential throughout the process.
