Friday night on InterCHANGE

Here are the topics we discuss on InterCHANGE Friday night on Milwaukee Public Television Channel 10 at 6:30 with a repeat broadcast at 11:00 Sunday morning:


1 - GOP Convention and the Presidential Campaign.


Was it a great speech by Sarah Palin, or just a scripted performance?  Is she a pit bull or a hockey mom?  Was she effective at bashing Obama?  Does the fact that she has a pregnant 17-year-old daughter hurt her or help her?  Will she steal any of the female vote from Obama?  Does being a fairly inexperienced, small town Washington outsider help her or hurt her?  Does she bring the conservative Christians to the polls?  Will this selection prove to be brilliant or disastrous?  The floor at the Democratic convention was filled with African-Americans, but there’s hardly a black face visible when they take a shot of the floor at the Republican convention.  Why is that?


2 – Milwaukee Potholes.



The Journal Sentinel runs a front page headline story “investigation” about how it took a few days longer to patch pot holes in poor minority neighborhoods than it did in more well to do white neighborhoods?  Who cares?  Big deal or no big deal?  An indication that City Hall ignores poor black neighborhoods?  An example of the type of “investigation” that might be one reason the paper continues to lose readers?


And more...
