## Transcript

Welcome to the PageCast. It's Sunday, January 20th. I'm Mark Halperin in New York City. Your three things to watch for in politics today. First on the Republican side, watch to see if the other candidates now go after John McCain. They've been reluctant for some reason to do that up until now. Since McCain has won South Carolina, see if the other candidates decide to finally go after him. Look for judges and taxes to be part of the mix. Second on the democratic side, Barack Obama, has to find a new tone. It's clear his campaign will evaluate it's tactics and strategies in the wake of their loss.

Watch to see what he does coming out of the box as they head into the important fight into South Carolina. And then finally, on the media side, watch to see if the press has made the full turn from covering wins and losses to covering delegate accumulation. The Sunday show will give us some indication of that. But watch the overall coverage to see if people are focused on wins or losses or what really matters which is delegate accumulation. Those are your three things to watch for in politics today. You can get all the political news, all day long, right here on the page. I'm Mark Halperin in Gotham City.

Thanks for watching The PageCast.
