Gee, I wonder what the main subject of all the talk shows will be today.

All the Village tongues are clucking about the debt-limit debacle, so that's going to dominate the discussions. The White House will be sending out its A Team -- Chief of Staff William Daley and Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner -- to make the rounds.

House Speaker John Boehner will be appearing on the friendly confines of Fox News Sunday, along with Reps. Joe Walsh (R-Ill.) and Donna Edwards (D-Md.).

NBC invited on Gang of Six member Sen. Tom Coburn (R-Okla.), along with freshman Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.) and Cory Booker, the Democratic mayor of Newark, N.J.

Here's the complete rundown:

ABC "This Week": Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner; New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg. 8 a.m.

NBC, "Meet the Press": White House Chief of Staff William Daley; Sen. Tom Coburn, R-Okla.; Rep. Adam Kinzinger, R-Ill.; Cory Booker, mayor of Newark, N.J. 8 a.m.

CBS, "Face the Nation": Daley; Sens. Jon Kyl, R-Ariz., Mark Warner, D-Va., Saxby Chambliss, R-Ga., and Dick Durbin, D-Ill. 8:30 a.m.

CNN's "State of the Union": Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif; former Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty, a GOP presidential candidate. 6 a.m. and 9 a.m.

"Fox News Sunday": Geithner; Reps. Joe Walsh, R-Ill., and Donna Edwards, D-Md. 4 p.m.; also 3 p.m. on FNC
