## Transcript

Welcome to the PageCast. It's Saturday, September 13th. I'm Mark Halperin in Gotham City with your three things to watch for in politics today. First, watch to see how the campaigns react to Hurricane Ike taking up a lot of the news hole, changing the tones of the campaign. Watch to see how they deal with that developing story. Second, watch to see how the campaigns deal with negative attacks, both campaigns, ferocious on September 10th and 12th. Watch to see what they do here on the 13th in terms of press releases and attacks on each other. And then finally, Sarah Palin doing some solo campaigning out west late in the day, watch to see what kind of message she drives, what she-- the elements of her stump speech from the first few days out in the campaign trail she maintains or whether she launches at a different direction.

Those are your three things to watch for in politics today. You can get all the political news all the time, unobscurred, right here on The Page. For now in Gotham City, I'm Mark Halperin. Thanks for watching the PageCast.
