Will Proposition 14 on next Tuesday's ballot open up state politics or make it even harder to challenge Republicans and Democrats?  Do a couple of long-shot candidates have a chance to buck their own party in campaigns against Congresswoman Jane Harman and US Senator Barbara Boxer?  On our rebroadcast of today's To the Point, President Karzai's effort at reaching out to the Taliban may have failed before it began. We update this week's "peace jirga" with 1600 tribal leaders and politicians. Is it building support for Karzai's government? Will it make any difference for US soldiers?
