On the final weekend before the election, surrogates from the campaigns for both Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump will appear on the Sunday shows to make a closing pitch for their candidates.
Here’s who will be on TV:
NBC’s “Meet the Press”: Clinton campaign chair John Podesta and Trump surrogate and former House Speaker Newt Gingrich (R-GA)
ABC’s “This Week”: Podesta and Republican National Committee Chair Reince Priebus
CBS’ “Face the Nation”: Democratic vice presidential nominee Tim Kaine and Priebus
“Fox News Sunday”: Clinton strategist Joel Benenson and Republican vice presidential nominee Mike Pence
CNN’s “State of the Union”: Clinton campaign manager Robby Mook, Trump campaign manager Kellyanne Conway, and RNC spokesman Sean Spicer
Today’s spoxes-on-boxes-- will feature ‘Soundbites for the Masses’.
Last-minute reverberations echoed in today and tomorrow’s last-minute ads.
As anyone who watches these shows regularly–
have long-determined and likely already voted for their candidate.

I know that the current system of having dueling spokespersons is baked in, and probably good for ratings, but the effect on discourse is horrible.
In my opinion it would be much better to let campaigns give written statements on key issues, after which non-aligned journalists could discuss the facts.

One Democrat and two Republicans? How is CNN the “Clinton News Network” again?
Nice work, Jeff “Mother” Zucker.
Well, in all fairness, they did fire both Donna and Corey.
Conway and Spicer together? I feel a “What Ever Happened to Baby Jane” batshitcrazy tag-team meltdown coming on.
