Sunday Morning "Talking Heads" Lineup

George Wenschhof

Can you believe it has been 40 years since the Watergate scandal led to the resignation of President Richard Nixon?  It has, and Bob Woodward and Carl Berstein will be on CBS "Face The Nation" to discuss.

Expect discussion of the outcome of the Wisconsin recall election and what, if any, impact this will have on the national elections in November.

Wisconsin Republican Governor Scott Walker, along with Maryland Democratic Governor Martin O'Malley (who has 2016 desires) and AFL-CIO President Richard Trumpka will also face off on CBS "Face The Nation".

The recent intelligence "leaks" will be the focus on CNN "State of The Union" where Obama campaign strategist David Axelrod and Senator John McCain (R-Ariz.) will appear.

Look to see the slight uptick in unemployment to be talked about and President Obama's recent statement saying "the private sector is doing fine" to be jumped on by Republican party surrogates.

Plan to tune into C-SPAN "Newsmakers" to lsiten to Senators Debbie Stabenow (D-Mich.) and Pat Roberts (R-KS) discuss the $969 Billion Farm bill they have jointly introduced in the Senate.

It appears the ongoing violence in Syria along with the continued economic problems facing the Euro Zone will not face the scrutiny they deserve this Sunday.  But, I hope I am wrong.

Below is a full list of the scheduled guests:

NBC "Meet The Press" - preempted for coverage of French Open.

ABC "This Week" - David Axelrod and Rick Santorum

Roundtable with Ed Rendell, Mike Huckabee, Ann Coulter, and Van Jones.
