Conan the candidate hits the streets – going door to door to meet the people of Orange County, California. It’s all part of his bid to become the next governor of the Golden State.

A shrewd political move, or a blatant publicity stunt? We’ll get a fair and balanced debate from Bill Whalen, former speechwriter for former California Gov. Pete Wilson, and Ellis Henican, columnist for Newsday and FOX News political analyst.

About 40 supporters of an Alabama judge's Ten Commandments monument stood watch over it early Friday, hoping to keep anyone from removing it from the rotunda of the state judicial building. How will the standoff end? We’ll be live with the latest.
