Sexy Liberal Hal Sparks joins us in the Los Angeles Bureau at 9am ET / 6am PT for three hours of Humpdays With Hal

GOP Strategist Rich Galen calls in at 10am ET / 7am PT to talk about the 2012 GOP field and the possibility of Chris Christie getting into the race

Rep. Eddie Bernice Johnson (D-TX) calls in at 10:30am ET / 7:30am PT to talk about President Obama’s American Jobs Act

Comedian Lewis Black calls in at 11:50am ET / 8:50am PT to talk about the release of his new CD, “The Prophet”

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie didn’t say yes, but he didn’t say no explicitly, so his speech last night in California on “American exceptionalism” still may fan rumors that he’s wavering on a possible run for the presidency.

President Obama’s former senior adviser and campaign strategist David Axelrod acknowledged yesterday that the 2012 presidential election will be a “titanic struggle” for the incumbent president facing a struggling economy and high unemployment.

Former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin has threatened to sue the author and publisher of “The Rogue: Searching for the Real Sarah Palin.” She said was filled with “lies and rumors presented as fact.”

With 1,096 essays for “60 Minutes” under his belt, Andy Rooney will deliver his 1,097th on Sunday’s broadcast. And it will be his last as a regular contributor.
