jacky kucinich. thanks to you both. jackie, i ll start with you on the ukrainian crisis. i guess the question is at this point, on the one hand, you ve got negotiations going on. on the other hand, you ve got troops building up on the bor r border. so is putin really negotiating in good faith here? he reached out to the president on friday. that s good news. you have secretary kerry talking with his russian counterpart in paris. they seem to be moving in that direction. there s a plan they re actually discussing. i understand secretary kerry might speak soon. we ll have to see what he says. it certainly looks like it s moving in the right direction. the troop build-up certainly is of concern. raul, it s interesting. because it feels like this is a lot about, at this point, russia s fear of losing the grip on the ukraine. they want assurances, right, that they won t lose it to the eu. lavrov said something interesting on state tv. he said, quote, if you look at the wider picture, it
secretary of state john kerry will engage if last-ditch diplomacy with russia s foreign minister in paris. putin did call our president. the white house has to wait and see how serious putin is about diplomacy. will there be a diplomatic solution to this crisis? i hope so. in your forecast this week, diplomacy, domestic agenda, and dog whistles. we begin with the diplomatic efforts to diffuse the ukrainian crisis that president obama back at home and back to his top domestic issues. john kerry is meeting with his russian counterpart in paris to try and find a way out of the escalating confrontation over russia s annexation of crimea. the last-minute rendezvous came after putin made a phone call to president obama on friday. meanwhile, the top american general in europe has been called back early from a trip to washington due to concerns about russian troop movements at the ukrainian border. here s how intelligence chair mike rodgers describes the situation there
we ll examine that face-off between barack obama and mitt romney. our journal is still far more fixated on the theatrics of the bee baits and on funny little moments like this one. it s phrase that won t die. binders full of women. binders full of women. biernds full of women is something you find in a killer s basement at the end of a law & order: svu. plus newsweek is ending its run. tina brown on moving into the digital world. i m howard kurtz, and this is rely reliable sources. moderate as presidential debate as we have seen this fall means putting yourself in the cross fire and that s where she found herself during the second face-off this past week. governor romney, there will be plenty of chances to go off. let her answer and the answer way off the mark. you certainly will have lots of time here coming up because i want to move you on. i just want to make sure. i think i was supposed to get that last answer but i want to point out i don t be
