Hecklers interrupted 4 times... While
the largely-friendly crowd did their

McCain, who has a five year plan to get
out of Iraq, would not back down.



(SOT: JOHN MCCAIN / R - PRESIDENTIAL


CANDIDATE) - "I WILL NEVER SURRENDER IN
IRAQ."



The candidate is hoping his credentials
will impress voters =and= donors.


McCain's campaign funds are just about
half that of Barack Obama's, so he's
turning to the president for help.



(STANDUP BRIDGE: Susan Roberts / CBS
NEWS / THE WHITE HOUSE) - "President
Bush is on a 3-day fundraising trip --
headlining three McCain events. But the
Arizona Senator is walking a fine
line.. trying not to align himself too
closely with an unpopular president."



Campaigning in Las Vegas -- Obama was
quick to point out Bush and McCain's
similarities.



(SOT: BARACK OBAMA / D - PRESIDENTIAL


CANDIDATE) - "THE QUESTION FOR THE
AMERICAN PEOPLE IS -- DO WE WANT TO
CONTINUE GEORGE BUSH'S POLICIES? I
THINK THE ANSWER IS NO."



Obama is on a swing through the west --
seemingly focused on the November


election. He's hoping to woo voters in
battleground states - like Nevada,
Colorado, and New Mexico.



Hillary Clinton still has her focus on
the disputed delegates of Florida and
Michigan. A decision this weekend in
Clinton's favor could help her gain
some ground on Obama, but catching him
is still virtually impossible.

<< Good evening, I'm meteorologist
Robin Reed in the SkyTracker7 Forecast
Center. A cold front will work through


tonight and early Wednesday, bringing
scattered showers and thunderstorms.
While not everyone will get wet, some
communities along and east of the Blue
Ridge Mountains may find brief
downpours and gusty winds with the
storms. Any remaining showers will
exit Wednesday morning, with areas and
fog sticking around as we start the
day. By the afternoon, sunshine will
break through, but not enough to make
up for the cooler air behind the front.
Look for highs Wednesday near 70. A
ridge of high pressure will keep the
region in a fairly dry pattern Thursday
and Friday, with increased shower/storm
chances (30-40%) Saturday through
Monday. As far as temperatures go,
warmer southwest winds will push highs
back into the low 80s by the end of the
week and into the weekend. TUESDAY
NIGHT: Scattered showers and storms.
Low: 62 WEDNESDAY: Cooler with a
morning shower. High: 69 WEDNESDAY
NIGHT: Turning partly cloudy. Low: 52
