The Hardball Briefing On MSNBC
------------------------------------------------------
First up, Barack in Britain!
How's our President holding up across the pond? Is he still a hit over in
Europe or have hard times taken a toll? Plus, how's the foreign press
portraying it all? That's what we'll ask NBC News Chief Foreign Correspondent
Richard Engel and the Daily Telegraph's Toby Harnden.

The special election in NY-20 is too close to call! First the Minnesota senate
race and now this. What's going on with all these "too close to call"
elections? What do they mean and why are they so important? Charlie Cook of
the Cook Political Report and the Atlantic Media's Ron Brownstein will weigh in.

Plus, there's a whole lot of glamour surrounding the President and First Lady
as they make the rounds in Europe. What does the all attention garnered by the
first couple mean? We'll ask the Washington Post's Lois Romano and MSNBC
Political Analyst Michelle Bernard to share their insights.

(R-AK)'s legal battles.
