This week on RadioNation: John Nichols and Michelle Goldberg come back from Alaska with some pretty frightening stories to tell about Sarah Palin*. Plus, in the debate over the Bush Administration's proposed bailout plan for Wall St, the rubber hit the road. Who rules the legislature--the voters or the financiers? We'll talk with former Banking Committee chief Economist Robert Johnson and the AFL-CIO's Thea Lee. And also: the peace movement sits down with Iranian President Ahmandinejad and Howard Zinn talks about political boldness and a new New Deal. Click here to listen to the broadcast.
