Politics month comes to a merciful close with an ABC made-for-tv feature from 1999 called "Swing Vote" (not the Kevin Costner one). Stop me if you've heard this one, but in this film, Roe vs. Wade is overturned and newly appointed justice Andy Garcia is the crucial swing vote on deciding what happens to a woman's right to choose now that individual states are deciding what's legal and what isn't. You know, an interesting "what if" from a quarter century ago, yeah? Right? *sigh* Anyway, we start Christmas movies next week. Listen in, how about?
