The gloves were off and the candidates went toe-to-toe in Thursday night's vice presidential debate. How our Voice of the Voter panel is reacting to the showdown. After we asked questions a recalled candy was pulled from the shelves. How the possibly tainted candy slipped past state inspection. K-State gets wired. How their Veterinary School is going paperless and why students say its helping their grades. The failing economy means it's going to be harder for you to get a car. What one used car salesman is doing to fight the financial crisis. Drops in stocks have Kansans confused about where to put their money. Why one lending institution in Topeka is actually seeing more business. It will be the only Kansas school that has one. Find out which elementary school is getting a new tornado safe room and where the money is coming from. In this edition of Good Morning Kansas' Breakfast Chat, Philicia McKee, executive director of Keep America Beautiful, explains how the group is keeping the Capital City beautiful. Plus, Meteorologist Craig Gold laces up the skates and shows us how fits in with the stars of Disney's High School Musical on Ice. He delivers some amazing moves and the weather forecast.
