    California Votes on Legalizing Marijuana

    Will California be the first state to legalize pot? Will the Obama Administration reverse the will of the voters?  Win or lose, what will Proposition 19 mean for the rest of the country? Also, WikiLeaks releases nearly 400,000 secret documents from the Iraq War, and a preview of a very unlikely world series.

    Will California be the first state to legalize pot? Will the Obama Administration reverse the will of the voters? Win or lose, what will Proposition 19 mean for the rest of the country? Also, WikiLeaks releases nearly 400,000 secret documents from the Iraq War, and the Giants and Rangers will start this year's World Series on Wednesday night. How did that happen?
