Sneak Peek: Clinton and Gore Together Again

September 25, 2007— -- Bill Clinton and Al Gore make a rare joint appearance in New York on Wednesday as the third annual meeting of the Clinton Global Initiative gets underway.

The former president and vice president take the stage during the opening session, moderated by Clinton, billed as "an action-oriented discussion" examining "global health, education, poverty alleviation and energy and climate change."

The 10:00 am ET Clinton-Gore event takes place at the Sheraton New York Hotel & Towers.

Other panelists include Afghan President Hamid Karzai, President of the Philippines Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, President and CEO of Wal-Mart, H. Lee Scott Jr, Archbishop Desmond Tutu, and World Bank President Robert Zoellick.

The end-of-the-third quarter mad dash for cash pauses for 90 minutes on Wednesday when the eight Democratic '08ers square off at Dartmouth College in Hanover, N.H.. The D.N.C.-sanctioned affair, which will be moderated by NBC's Tim Russert, gets underway at 9:00 pm ET on MSNBC, New England Cable News, and New Hampshire Public Radio.

Wednesday's debate will be the first time that Barack Obama will be on stage with Hillary Clinton since the former first lady released her second attempt at universal health coverage. (Tell us, Senator Clinton, do you agree with Senator Edwards that Obama's plan would leave 15 million uninsured?)

It's also the first debate since Bill Richardson stepped up his "I'm different on Iraq" argument with a television ad in the Granite State.

Watch it here:

Before the debate, Obama attends a fundraising house reception in Peterborough, NH. His wife, Michelle, is in Iowa meeting with local activists and community members in Iowa City and in Muscatine. She'll end her day at a debate watch party in Davenport.

TiVo Alert! Mr. Clinton appears Wednesday on "The Martha Stewart Show".

As for the Republicans…

Mitt Romney is fundraising in California, making stops in Long Beach for a breakfast fundraiser and a 4:30 pm ET town hall meeting before dinner fundraiser in Santa Barbara and Ventura.
