In the Headlines

"A final push in most expensive campaign" (Brian Mooney, Boston Globe) - An unprecedented $64 million worth of television ads in just the final week of the race will put an exclamation point on the most expensive presidential campaign in history.

"Bill Clinton hails Obama as America's future" (Ben Feller, AP) - Portraying harmony like never before, Bill Clinton hailed Barack Obama on Wednesday, a power pairing designed to inspire Democrats already smelling victory.

"John McCain could still win -- if everything broke his way" (Steven Thomma, McClatchy) - John McCain still could win. It would take what one analyst calls a "perfect storm" of events breaking his way in the campaign's final days, but he could come from behind, overtake Barack Obama and pull off the greatest upset in 60 years.

"McCain, GOP gain ground on Obama ads in key states" (Jim Kuhnhenn, AP) - After weeks of being out-advertised by Barack Obama, Republican presidential candidate John McCain and the Republican Party are nearly matching the Democratic nominee ad for ad in key battleground markets.

On the Morning Shows

Good Morning America - Barack Obama: "You don't want to say ‘here's something I didn't do. Here's a hand I didn't shake.'  People are going through such a hard time.  One of the things you develop over a campaign like this is just an accumulation of these stories and I want to make sure I do what I can to help these people.”

Sarah Palin on the criticism and negative polling she's faced: “I don't care what the polls say, I honestly don't.  There have been many underestimated persons elected to office given the opportunity to prove the pundits wrong.  I know the truth, I know my record and to prove who I am and who I would stand for. It's all worth it and I'm not giving up on any of it.”
