However, the tight Presidential race is playing out to the advantage of domestic carmakers as they press for legislation for the loan guarantees. The list of states that would benefit includes the potential swing states of Michigan, Ohio, Indiana and Missouri.

Barack Obama, the Democratic Presidential candidate, and Republican nominee John McCain have endorsed the loan guarantees. Both candidates also voted for the Energy Bill approved by Congress and signed by President George W. Bush in December that...
...Sloths are a common sight in parks and on hillside trails, and marmoset monkeys scamper along telephone lines and swing through the trees of several neighborhoods.
