It's become an annual tradition at the annual meeting of the Clinton Global Initiative for journalists to appear as Featured Attendees and moderate or speak on panel discussions. This morning's session featuring both John McCain and Barack Obama was moderated by NBC's current Meet the Press host, Tom Brokaw. CNBC's Maria Bartiromo not only speaks today, but anchors a taping for later CNBC airing of Clinton's Global Citizen Awards. The Clinton foundation announced that "CNBC is the official broadcast media partner and The Economist is the official print media partner." CNBC is also thanked for its financial "sponsorship assistance."
Also appearing on panels are New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristof, and perhaps unsurprisingly, former Clinton spokesman and ABC News star George Stephanopoulos (on an education panel with, among others, hip-hop musician Wyclef Jean) and former Clinton strategist David Gergen, now with CNN.

John McCain speaking at
September 26, 2008 - 01:03 ET by Rush FanJohn McCain speaking at Bill Clinton's Clinton Global Initiative serves as a reminder that John McCain has not and will not change: He is a RINO through and through. Yes, I will vote for him and my hope is that he is elected.
But I have no doubt that as President he is going to be as big a disappointment as he has in the past. Once a RINO always a RINO.
So I have a new tag line that I strongly believe: The most important change we can make is to vote out the Democrats and RINOs in Congress! Without the support of his Democrat buddies in Congress, John McCain will not be able to make headway on his Immigration and Global Warming policies.

You want change? I’ll give you change. The most important change we can make is to vote out the Democrats and RINOs in Congress!
