The Rachel Maddow Show *hearts* democracy!  So if  you live in New Hampshire go exercise your civic duty-- vote.

Today's show is going to be co-hosted by Rachel and political guru David Bender, Rachel will host the first hour and David will host the second hour when he'll be taking your calls.

Air America's New Hampshire Election Night Special, hosted by David Bender and a slew of your favorite hosts, will continue from 8 pm-12am ET. 

MENTIONED ON TODAY'S SHOW

If you don't believe John Edwards when he says that if you want health insurance or a responsible energy policy or a fair tax plan then you cannot give the lobbyists a seat ot the table, if you do not believe that statement?  Check out this guy.  He will spend $60 million dollars in the next 11 months to make sure to don't any of the things I just mentioned.

The latest seriously lame Mitt Romney attack (hint: the Olympics!)

The latest seriously lame Rudy Giuliani attack (hint: 9/11!)

Another Day, Another Podcast Problem

As usual, it's the next day and last night's The Rachel Maddow Show podcast doesn't work and isn't on the unofficial site.  

I appreciate Bob's work to fill the gaps, but it is wrong for Air America to be charge for a premium service then rely on an underpaid part-timer from a fansite to cover for a broken system.

It's also wrong for Air America staff and management has remained silent about this. There should be a message on the front page, instead of info buried in blogs.

At the very least paying customers deserve an easy to find official explanation and apology from management for what is going on. Ethically we should be getting what we paid for.

Air America should stop taking money for premium subscriptions until this is fixed. This is the sort of behavior would be bad from mainstream media; it's vile for the insurgent left radio network.

And it seems kind of odd that the Rachel Maddow staff can't speak to power on this issue.
