This is it! The Hustle's partying down with 3,000 rabid Democrats for Barack's historic win, and our season finale – but not before interviews with ladies of the Central Texas House, Donna Howard and Valinda Bolton. Plus: where are the Hustle's previous guests now?
In installment uno of the the Hustle's election night two-fer, we count down to Barack o'clock with Mayor Will Wynn, judicial candidate Woodie Jones, and Texas Senator Kirk Watson, at the Travis County Dems' Downtown bash.
The Hustle chats up Central Texas pols running for all manner of seats: U.S. Representative Lloyd Doggett, Texas House member Valinda Bolton, U.S. House candidate Larry Joe Doherty, and judicial candidate Woodie Jones. All this, and a socialist sandwich too.
Despite some goofy voter fraud allegations, early voting is underway and high turnout has the Hustle going bananas. Featuring U.S. Senate candidate Rick Noriega, Texas Rep. Dawnna Dukes, and other sundry politicos.
Joe the Plumber (and his cuz, Joe Six-Pack) have garnered more attention than Bill Ayers and Barack combined, but what do we really know about them? The Hustle investigates, waxing a debate recap (and John McCain's eyebrows) along the way.
In this inaugural episode, we tackle the first presidential debate, the worldwide economic crisis and McCain's "suspended" campaign. It's all in a day for the Hustle.
If you're anything like the Hustle, you caught some of the Republican National Convention – albeit probably peering between your fingers, eyeing the screen in nauseated disbelief. If you didn't catch it, the Hust' recaps the RNC while recuperating at conservatism's spiritual home – the golf course. Featuring John McCain, Sarah Palin, Mitt Romney, and more.
Okay, so it ain't Denver – but the Hustle observes the Obama acceptance speech alongside progressive PAC Annie's List at their watch party at the Belmont Downtown. State Reps. Eddie Rodriguez and Elliott Naishtat are in the house, along with some outré convention clips you probably missed. It's way beyond the hall!
