WASHINGTON (CNN)—Barack Obama officially opted out of public financing for the general election Monday, leaving him the option of raising unlimited campaign cash. In the latest installment of CNN=Politics Daily, Senior Political Correspondent Candy Crowley has the details on how Obama came to the decision, and what this means for John McCain.

CNN’s Dana Bash reports on John McCain’s first-hand look at the floods that ripped through Iowa, on a trip that coincided with President Bush’s visit to the state.

While visiting Vietnam to promote Operation Smile, Cindy McCain sat down for an exclusive one-on-one interview with Chief National Correspondent John King. During the interview, she explains why she thinks she and Michelle Obama should be off-limits.
