 71 million American voters define themselves as centrists. So why is nobody listening to them?

We do. Focus group guru Frank Luntz discusses what he calls commonsense voters.

And we find a ton of them in Rockford, Illinois, a blue-collar city that has voted for the winning presidential candidate in 7 of the last 8 elections.

And finally, we tell you about the Ohio bipartisan speaker election that should embarrass Washington. 

See more information relating to the episode in the Reading Room.
