CONTAINING LINKS TO 1280 STORIES FROM THE NETWORKS' NIGHTLY NEWSCASTS
     COMMENTS: Notes from the Stump

On the campaign trail, NBC's Kelly O'Donnell followed Republican John McCain's continued quest for prominent endorsements. Wednesday it was the GOP House leadership; Thursday former rival Mitt Romney; now he announced that former President George Bush would announce for him on Monday. O'Donnell observed that McCain is gearing up for Barack Obama as his General Election opponent. He and Obama had both pledged to rely on federal financing, which has an $85m maximum, instead of unlimited private contributions. "That was before Obama started raising eyepopping funds," O'Donnell pointed out, when McCain challenged the Democrat to stick to his vow of relative poverty.

Obama, of course, still has to beat Hillary Rodham Clinton. ABC's David Wright followed her attempts to frame herself as the candidate "of, from and for the middle class." She launched an attack ad against Obama for his failure to endorse universal healthcare and his refusal to debate her before next Tuesday's primary in Wisconsin. CBS' Dean Reynolds could not nail down a report in The New York Times that Rep John Lewis, the Civil Rights leader from Georgia, was switching his superdelegate vote from Rodham Clinton to Obama. Lewis's spokesman issued a non-denial denial, "saying the story was 'inaccurate'--they did not exactly say how." Reynolds called the confusion "a worrisome development."

As for Obama, NBC's Lisa Myers examined his relationship with Exelon, the nuclear power plant operator--a prominent source of campaign funds and influential employer in Illinois--while CBS anchor Katie Couric added credibility to Obama's prospects in the second part of her so-called Exclusive interview with his wife Michelle. Her husband is not even the nominee, let alone the President, yet Couric asked her to contrast herself to former First Ladies, specifically "a lawyer, a mother, an outspoken advocate for her husband. Do you see any similarities between you and Hillary Clinton?" "I am sure there are some but I feel like I am uniquely me," Michelle sidestepped.
