May 21

The AP has an intriguing story tonight saying that John Kerry is considering delaying accepting the Democratic nomination because of the potential implications for fundraising and expenditure.

According to the Washington Post, though, Kerry raised nearly twice as much as Bush in April. Total spending in this year's political campaigns - presidential and congressional - could reach $3bn, Bloomberg reports.

The Bush team, meanwhile, is planning to launch a new TV ad campaign attacking Kerry's stance on the patriot act, USA Today reports.

With yet more stories about John McCain and the Democratic ticket, Knight-Ridder's Washington Bureau has a piece on the extent to which the southwest is in play.

The key battleground state at the moment, though, still looks like it will be Ohio, although both sides are also putting resources into Wisconsin.
