I don't think tomorrow's story matters. The one the day after that and for the next 32 days won't matter either. People's minds are already made up.
The right wing has already found a way to blame the democrats for the current economic situation, even though they've controlled the White House for the last 8 years and controlled congress for 10 of the last 12.
The left wing has managed to blame house republicans for the bailout package not being passed, even though the dems have the majority in congress and theoretically don't need a single republican vote to pass anything.
Anything bad that happens can be twisted and spun to make it the other side's fault, and anything good that happens can be twisted and spun so that your favorite party can take credit for it.
Nothing that happens between now and election day is going to change anyone's mind. The only thing that matters is who gets more of their troops to show up on election day.
