THE FINAL STRETCH

Last swipes center on the economy

On the stump:
John McCain in Tampa: "Senator Obama's massive new tax increases would kill jobs, make a bad economy worse. I'm not going to let that happen."

Barack Obama in Jacksonville, Fla.: "Despite our economic crisis, John McCain actually came here, to Veterans Memorial Arena, and repeated something he's said at least 16 times on this campaign. He said - and I quote - 'the fundamentals of our economy are strong.' Well, Florida, you and I know that's not only fundamentally wrong, it also sums up his out-of-touch, on-your-own economic philosophy."

On the air:
No new national ads by either candidate.

On tap today:
McCain: Rally in Grand Junction, Colo.; election night event in Phoenix.

Obama: Event in Indianapolis; election night event in Chicago.
