*** SATELLITE COORDINATES & EXCERPTING GROUND RULES ***

A live feed (Saturday at 6pm ET) and highlight package (Saturday late night and Sunday morning) from MySpace and MTV, with The Associated Press: "Closing Arguments: A Presidential Super Dialogue." With Senator Hillary Clinton, Governor Mike Huckabee, Senator Barack Obama and Representative Ron Paul taking place live February 2nd at 6pm ET in MTV's Times Square Studio in NY. Participants will vie to earn the support of young voters, who are expected to turn out in record numbers on Super Tuesday. Each candidate will individually have the floor for roughly 15-20 minutes, addressing questions posed by online viewers via MySpaceIM, ChooseOrLose.com and from the live college-aged audience. The event will broadcast live on MTV, MTV2, and MTV Tr3s, with highlights on college network mtvU. It will also be streamed live online via MySpace www.myspace.com/election2008 and MTV's www.ChooseorLose.com. WashingtonPost.com political reporter Chris Cillizza, MTV News Correspondents Gideon Yago and Sway Calloway, and Associated Press political writer Philip Elliott will moderate.

A revolutionary online polling tool, powered by Flektor (www.flektor.com), allows the online audience to instantaneously register its approval or disapproval of candidate responses. The Flektor tool allows the series' industry-leading pollsters, John McLaughlin and Geoffrey Garin, to custom tailor in-depth response options for the online audience, enabling viewers to provide insightful feedback and reactions to the candidate's responses. As a result of the tool, the online audience can help shape the direction of the forum as its happening. Poll results are displayed on the screen and viewers can compare their opinions to those of the entire community through a "popular vote" function.
