(Indianapolis, IN)


"Nats Obama"



Barack Obama is trying to close the
deal with undecided voters with a
speech entitled "closing argument."



(Barack Obama/Democratic Presidential
Candidate)


"If you decide that this election is
bigger than flag pins and sniper fire
or the comments of a former pastor -
... then I ask you enlist your
neighbors and knock on doors and work
from now until Tuesday."



Obama campaigned all over Indiana with
his family Saturday. He hit Hillary
Clinton hard on her holiday gas price
plan which would suspend the federal
tax this summer.



(Obama) "In a moment of candor, her
advisors actually admitted that it
wouldn't have much of an effect on gas
prices. But, they said, it's a great


political issue for Senator Clinton."



(Wake Forest, NC)


"Nats Clinton"



Clinton spent most of the day in North
Carolina... where she went on the
offensive regarding her gas tax
proposal.



"You've probably heard the debate on
the gas tax all because my opponent is
running ads, and holding press
conferences--- attacking my plan to


give you some kind of a break this
summer."



(Gastonia, NC)


"Hello Gaston County."



Clinton sounded raspy as she addressed
voters at a second stop in the state.
Polls show Obama leading in North
Carolina-though that lead has shrunk in
recent weeks.



(Hillary Clinton/Democratic
Presidential Candidate)


"The voices and the votes of North


Carolinians are going to play a big
role in picking the next president."



It's unlikely Tuesday's results will
bring an immediate end to the
campaign�but the primaries are pushing
more superdelegates to make a call- but
a couple hundred of them have yet to
announce their all-important decisions.

GRAPHIC=Richmond Sprint Cup The Cup cars traded some paint


tonight in the state capital in the
Crown Royal 400. Denny Hamlin was
looking for the weekend sweep after
taking the checkers in Friday night's
Nationwide race. The native of nearby


Chesterfield was nearly untouchable
tonight leading every lap but one until
there were 18 to go. Hamlin had a tire
go down late, and he was passed by Dale
Earnhardt, Jr. and Kyle Busch.


The race was red flagged past
the halfway point after an 11 car
pileup, triggered when Dave Blaney got
together with JJ Yeley.


The laps are winding down at
RIR. With under 10 laps to go Junior
got turned by Busch. Clint Bowyer
passed them both. We'll have some
highlights on News 7 Sunday Mornin'.

Pelicans vs. Avalanche Overcast skies didn't deter :00 these folks from getting out to the
ballpark tonight on the first weekend
in May.


The Avs got on the board first
in the second inning. With the sacks
jacked, Jhon Florentino smacks one to
deep centerfield and off the wall.
Three runs scored for the home team
before Florentino was thrown out
heading to third.


In the third, Myrtle Beach
answered. Ernesto Mejia slugs one over
the wall with two Pelicans on. The
three run homer made it a *CG final Myrtle Beach tie ballgame just like that. There 8 was plenty more where that came from as Salem the Pelicans poured it on winning by a 4 final of 8 to 4.
