...completely wrong was which groups we would be strong with. The notion that voters who supported Senator Clinton would vote Republican in the general election was never supported by what we saw in our polling. At the beginning of June, going into the general election, Obama had a double-digit lead in our battleground poll against McCain among women. He was competitive among Catholics and led 2 to 1 among Latinos...
Minnesota: Where Comedy Isn't Pretty, 8:30 a.m. E.T. Ben Golnik, the McCain campaign's regional manager, asserts McCain is viable here, despite polls that have showed Obama in double digit leads and that the state hasn't voted for a Republican president since Richard Nixon in 1972.

Clinton made two stops in Duluth, a northern city near the Iron Range where Republicans hope McCain can steal union votes from Democrats...
...These days, Hu must be suffering from serious insomnia.

In the first few minutes of trading on Friday, stock indexes dropped 5% as the double whammy of deleveraging and a worldwide economic slowdown continued to buffet company shares...
...even when growing at a double-digit rate, China's economy is not yet large enough by itself to keep the global economy surging. The country accounts for only about 5% of total world GDP; the U.S. is responsible for 28%. "China's strength can help," says UBS's Wang, "but it's not enough to save the world." China may be lucky just to save itself...
