Tonight on "Hannity & Colmes"...

Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat (search) is dead... What does his passing mean for the future of the entire Middle East? Will we see more violence? Renewed peace efforts? We'll ask former Secretary of State Alexander Haig and New Mexico Governor and former U.N. ambassador Bill Richardson.

Plus, was the gay marriage issue play a critical role in the defeat of Senator John Kerry at the polls earlier this month? Or did the issue actually help him with voters? We'll have surprising new analysis for you this evening when former Democratic strategist Pat Caddell joins us.

Also, ABC News Senior Correspondent Carole Simpson has compared "red states" in this election to slave holding states in the nation prior to the civil war. Is this an extreme example of media bias? The author of "Arrogance," former CBS News correspondent Bernie Goldberg joins the debate!

Then, will President Bush succeed in getting his immigration reform plan through Congress? Texas Democrat Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee is opposed to the plan and she'll tell us why this evening.

Finally, boxing legend, the controversial Don King takes a break from the ring to talk with Sean and Alan.

These stories and much, much more!

About the Show

Fast-paced and hard-hitting, "Hannity & Colmes" brings viewers a heated discussion in a nightly face-off. Relishing in controversial topics, personalities and social issues, conservative radio commentator Sean Hannity and liberal radio personality Alan Colmes offer their points-of-view in an often animated, always compelling debate.

But, unlike similar debate shows — which often appear scripted — "Hannity & Colmes" conducts a live, spur of the moment deliberation on politics and social topics. Also, differentiating the show is its dedication to "move away from the Beltway," bringing audiences an alternative discussion program without the "in" comments.

Adding fuel to the fire, several high-profile guests have joined the program on a wide-range of topics.

"With guests who are 'in the middle of the fight,' we're able to hear their point-of-view on the topics, as well as advance our own feelings," said Hannity.

"Believe it or not, I agree with that statement," quipped Colmes.
