CONTAINING LINKS TO 1280 STORIES FROM THE NETWORKS' NIGHTLY NEWSCASTS
     COMMENTS: Ohio State & Penn State

Republican John McCain rested his hopes for victory on doing the unexpected. "I think we are going to fool the pundits one more time," he predicted in his interview with ABC anchor Charles Gibson. NBC's Kelly O'Donnell repeated the claim by McCain's advisors that he has "enough resources, the money and manpower to get out the vote." She promoted his upcoming appearance on her network's Saturday Night Live, "hoping satire and a final push can give an underdog the last laugh." As for his state-by-state strategy, CBS' Chip Reid found McCain playing little defense in five of those vulnerable red states from 2004: NC, Fla, Nev, Mo, Ind. Instead all of McCain's eggs are in the baskets of Ohio and Pennsylvania. Reid contrasted the stump visits in those two states by each ticket over the last five days: Obama-Biden 7 vs McCain-Palin 25.
