Join us as we discuss the likely effects of the November 7 mid-term elections in the US on the Bush administration's foreign policy.

Will the American public continue to support the Republicans? Or will they swing behind the Democrats amid growing disappointment with security and sex scandals? And what will it mean for the countries in Bush's "axis of evil"?

Stryker McGuire - Bureau Chief, Newsweek.

Sir Robert Worcester - Founder of MORI.

John Micklethwait - Editor-in-chief, The Economist.
