Attention XM subscribers: A new station to cover 2008 Presidential race

From an email I received from XM today:

P.O.T.U.S. '08 - XM 130
In September, XM will formally launch P.O.T.U.S., a new radio channel dedicated to the 2008 presidential election, marking the first time that a national radio channel has been devoted to a presidential campaign. The 24-hour, commercial-free channel, created in association with C-SPAN and other media outlets, is named after the acronym used by government insiders for the President of the United States. The presidential election channel will feature news updates, candidate interviews, complete speeches, debate coverage, latest polling results, fundraising status, and live call-in shows. The channel will provide free airtime for presidential candidates to speak to voters. Non-traditional media outlets, such as bloggers and podcasters, will provide content for the channel. It will also air archival audio of historic moments from past campaigns, tapping C-SPAN's rich political archive.

I definitely think I will be tuning in! I just hope the coverage will be balanced between the Dems and the Repubs, but I guess that remains to be seen.
