LOOKING BACK AT TODAY.
The big news: Going into tonight's debate, the market continued its volatility.
After the market's more than 900-point gain, it closed today down 733.08, or
almost 8% of all volume.

New battleground polls from CNN/Time show Obama leading in Virginia, Colorado
and Florida and narrowing the gap in two other states Bush won.

Wondering what you'll hear from the pre-debate spinners? Whoops! This morning,
the Obama camp mistakenly distributed some talking points meant for staff eyes
only. The pointers spell out how the campaign hopes to focus on McCain's
"erratic" response to the economic crisis and his expected aggressiveness in
tonight's debate.

Despite swirling rumors that the McCain campaign's days of full court press in
Wisconsin may be numbered, NBC confirms that the Republican nominee's team has
bought ad time in markets there next week. But the RNC's independent
expenditure arm has stopped its efforts in the Badger State, as well as in
Maine, where McCain hopes to snag one of the state's electoral votes.

With so much focus on whether moderator Bob Schieffer -- or McCain -- will
bring up Bill Ayers or even Jeremiah Wright tonight, it's worth noting that
those kind of issues never came up at the Bush-Kerry debates four years ago.
Perhaps the equivalents of Ayers and Wright were the Swift Boat charges
regarding Kerry's military service, as well as Bush's own service in the Texas
Air National Guard. But, after reviewing the transcripts, neither became a
point of discussion in their three debates in 2004.

Joe Biden called McCain's "the most scurrilious campaign in modern history" in
Ohio today. http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/10/15/1548251.aspx
And was Biden really arrested for chasing girls? In Ohio, he told a tale of
being "arrested" in the 1960s after meeting two "young women" who were heading
back to their dorms. "I said, 'Well I'll come with you.' And they said, 'okay,'
and I walked into their dormitory," he said. "And [I] was immediately accosted
by a cop who arrested me, because back in those days men were not allowed in
women's dormitories." But a Biden spokesman clarifies that the senator's
detainment was by a campus policeman. And for what it's worth, a spokesperson
for Ohio University says that the OU Police Department has no record of any
arrest, although she says that it's possible that an incident report -- long
since archived -- could have been filed at the time.

What's a Phillies phan to do? Will diehard Joe Biden watch his team or the top
of the ticket in primetime tonight?

New Hampshire voters like to get to know their candidates, and they spent a lot

season. But they are meeting Palin for the first time
