The impact Michigan Dems are having at the National Convention, how Joe Biden for VP plays in Michigan and a recall of House Speaker Andy Dillon could be on the November ballot. The guest is Detroit political activist Adolph Mongo, with his take on the Kwame Kilpatrick story.

Adolph Mongo is a community activist and head of Adolph Mongo and Associates, a political consulting firm in Detroit. In the current flap involving the mayor of Detroit, Mr. Mongo has been a supporter of Kwame Kilpatrick. Mongo has been highly critical of the state Democratic Party, and of the governor. He is here to offer his take on the mayor's removal hearing next week, and the political fallout if the mayor resigns or is removed.

Chris Christoff, Kyle Melinn, and Bill Ballenger join senior capitol correspondent Tim Skubick.
