An Economic Interlude in Michigan, Super Committee Drama, Mt. Rushmore and Christmas Trees… Since the AM Note


Mt. Rushmore Reimagined – Here’s what Mt. Rushmore botas ugg botas ugg botas uggwould look like if every GOP candidate got their wish on who to add.

Michigan Debate – Now back to politics –botas ugg botas ugg botas ugg If we can stop thinking about Christmas trees and sexual harassment scandals for two hours tonight, the focus will be on the economy at a GOP presidential debate in Michigan. It will be a good day for the pivot – the DOW fell more than 400 points today. We’re trying to recall abotas ugg botas ugg botas ugg question during a Republican debate on the financial crisis in Europe. Hasn’t been one, we don’t think.

Wednesday was a day without a Herman accuser or a Herman Cain interview. All eyes are on Michigan, where the candidates will gather for a debate on the economy.

It’ll be a good opportunity to again put Mitt Romney on the spot in the state where his father was governor for his opposition to the auto bailout. He talked again about it to George Stephanopoulos yesterday. http://abcn.ws/ujonxk

Matt Jaffe’s preview: “Few states have been hurt worse by the country’s faltering economy than Michigan, where the unemployment rate still hovers at 11 percent, 2 percent higher than the national average. The automotive industry, so crucial to this state, has tried to bounce back after receiving federal bailout money, first under the Bush administration and now under Obama’s.” http://abcn.ws/s8s3OY

Debate Numbers - Notes Elizabeth Hartfield: Tonight’s debate on CNBC will be the ninth debate of the 2012 primary season. It is the sixth debate featuring the full GOP field. After tonight there are 14 more debates left on the books, stretching into the middle of March. March 19th is currently the last debate scheduled. (The Iowa Caucus, recall, is in early January).

Super Drama – With just two weeks until its deadline to reach agreement on cutting $1.2 trillion to $1.5 trillion from the federal deficit over the next 10 years, the Joint Select Committee on Deficit Reduction today reached a tense and prickly moment, according to John Parkinson and Sunlen Miller on Capitol Hill. But reports of demise are premature even though Rand Paul, who is not a member of the supercommittee, told ABC that the six Democrats who sit on the supercommittee are “no longer negotiating.”

“We haven’t stepped away from anything,” said Patty Murray, D-Wash. “There’s a lot of conversation and a lot of work going on.” More from Parkinson and Miller:
