The year is almost over, and it’s certainly been an eventful one.
We’ve seen a new president, some huge bank bailouts, a dramatic election
season and we’re closer than we’ve ever been to national health care
reform-whether that’s a good thing or not.

It’s also about to be 2010 and the end of a decade that Time magazine
suggested might’ve been the worst ever. Hyperbole? We’ll discuss the
year that was and the decade that was with a roundtable of our favorite
guests, including Katrina vanden Heuvel of <a
