Sunday Morning "Talking Heads" Lineup

George Wenschhof

The secret service scandal in Colombia will dominate the morning talk shows this Sunday.  Six members have resigned or been removed since news of the scandal involving prostitues hit the news.

Also, sure to be mentioned is the out of control spending by the Government Services Administration.  Republicans will surely point to President Obama and weak leadership as contributing factors to both.

With Mitt Romney now the presumptive Republican Party nominee, the discussion now is focused on who he will pick as his running mate.

Senator Joe Lieberman (I-Conn.), chair of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, along with his counterparts in the House Peter King (R-NY) and Darrell Issa (R-Calf.) will add their thoughts on the current scandals swirling around Washington.

Rumored Republican vice presidential candidates; Senator Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), Governor Mitch Daniels (R-Ind.) and Governor Bob McDonnell (R-Va.) will all appear as guests.

Obama campaign senior adviser David Axelrod will also appear on two of the morning shows.

Note, recently fired commentator Keith Olbermann appears on the roundtable discussion on ABC "This Week".
