Well, I'm back on Belmont's campus today after a week in New York (including a stop at Hofstra University, the site of the final presidential debate -- more on that later today), and the talk of the city was Wall Street's continued tremors. That means you'll start hearing a lot more about the economy from the candidates, too, even if they don't know that much.
Meanwhile, Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin has a whole other problem on her hands: the hacking of her personal e-mail account. Now the Secret Service and the FBI are interested, likely both for privacy/safety reasons and previous evidence of her use of private e-mail for government-related matters. Maybe, Time magazine says, McCain should stick with his online ignorance (regardless of whether he helped invent the BlackBerry).
Also:
McCain and Obama's pledges to battle earmarks could hurt their political chances in states like West Virginia.
Pollsters say voters believe policy change is more likely from Obama than McCain.
