Only 6 "weekday" news cycles left in the election
Things tend to go a little dim during the weekends, particularly this one. The one before the election might be different but a lot of people tune out on the weekends. That leaves McSame with very little time to make some news and turn this around.

2. Don't see it happening
I was expecting a major attempt yesterday to get coverage heading into the weekend. Maybe it was the B Girl, although I can't imagine the campaign being that inept.

4. So what should the Dems attention-hog of the week be, starting Monday?
I'm really enjoy having Mccain on his heels Monday-Friday.

5. Ted Stevens' probable conviction within the next few days...
