GOP Hopeful Rick Santorum

Rick Santorum joins us live from the campaign trail, where he is trying to solidify his status as the anti-Romney alternative after a clean sweep in this week’s three GOP contests. As the Romney campaign retools its message and sets their sights on attacking Santorum, can the former Pennsylvania senator stay strong and on message? Does he have the resources to go the distance and respond to negative campaign advertising?

MTP Political Roundtable

Santorum's sweeping victories reshape the Republican field in an otherwise busy week in politics where issues like religious freedom and gay marriage rocked the political landscape.  Plus, a "super" decision by President Obama encouraging contributions to his Super PAC ensures that we'll hear plenty of political sparring on the airwaves en route to the November election. Our roundtable previews the fall campaign: Joining us, head of the Super PAC supporting Pres. Obama, Bill Burton; Wall Street Journal's Peggy Noonan; Washington Post's EJ Dionne, and MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough.

White House Chief of Staff Jack Lew

New White House Chief of Staff Jack Lew, who has the big job of running the White House during a re-election year, joins us to talk about a big week in Washington with possible re-election repercussions for the president. How will the president's embrace of Super PACs square with voters tired of the ways of Washington?  And as the economy improves, social issues return to the forefront. Will the dust up over the Obama administration’s policy pertaining to contraception and  religious institutions have an impact with voters in November?
