Jonathan Harris (from The Examiner, Jimmy, John are hosting a power panel.  There is a huge blizzard in the capital and like many cities that don’t usually get snow...it is not going well.  With tension rising in Iowa, the panel discusses what will happen to the O’Malley voters.

We then move on to a story involving the snow storms currently hitting the east coast and the frozen residents looking to “warm up” with some bedtime loving via Craigslist.
