Here's an earlier sneak peek courtesy of the holiday.
On this week's program we will discuss the pros and cons of privatizing roads, and whether or not the press failed the public in their coverage of the presidential election.

On Tuesday, voters cast their ballots and elected Senator Barack Obama as the next president of the United States. We gathered a panel to analyze national and statewide results, such as the strength of the minority vote and the influence of technology in this election.

On tomorrow's program we'll discuss the results from Tuesday night's election. How did this presidential race shift the Democrats' standing on the Electoral College map and what's ahead for the broken Republican party?
In Florida, millions of voters have already cast their ballot for the 2008 presidential race by either visiting early voting locations throughout the past two weeks, or by mailing in their absentee ballots. Many more are expected to head to the polls today to help select our country's future president.
When did you vote and how long were the lines at your polling site? Did you have any problems? Also, tell us who you voted for in on our informal, unscientific (but still interesting) viewer's presidential poll.
