CONTAINING LINKS TO 1280 STORIES FROM THE NETWORKS' NIGHTLY NEWSCASTS
     COMMENTS: Heading for the Hill

In a campaign year that has been dominated by the oversized personalities vying to be President, too little attention has been paid by the network newscasts to House and Senate races. Let's hope that in the final week more stories will follow the vignettes by Mark Potter from Miami for NBC. He brought us Tim Mahoney, the Democrat from Palm Beach, who was elected in 2006 as a "family values candidate" and has now become a debate no-show after admitting "multiple extra-marital affairs." The race between Lincoln Diaz-Balart and Raul Martinez in Miami has the incumbent Republican being accused of "taking a suitcase of money from an indicted politician" and the Democrat, a former Mayor of Hialeah, being reminded of his 17-year-old conviction for extortion and racketeering, since overturned on appeal.
