Obama, Clinton face off in SC primary
Democratic presidential rivals Barack Obama and Hillary Rodham Clinton collided Saturday in a racially charged South Carolina primary, prelude to the Feb. 5 coast-to-coast competition for more than 1,600 national convention delegates. Former Sen. John Edwards was the third contender on the ballot, hoping to benefit from the acrimony between the other two.
McCain: Romney favored Iraq withdrawal
John McCain accused Mitt Romney of wanting to withdraw troops from Iraq, drawing immediate protest from his Republican presidential rival who said: "That's simply wrong and it's dishonest, and he should apologize."

Defunct spy satellite falling from orbit
A large U.S. spy satellite has lost power and propulsion and could hit the Earth in late February or March, government officials said Saturday.

'Do Not Deliver' list would bar papers
Connie Finch doesn't read a newspaper, but she picks up plenty each morning. At least one free newspaper is dropped at the end of her driveway each day, and she picks up more newspapers left by her neighbors.
All of them end up in the garbage.
"We're not asking for it," Finch said. "And it's just littering our streets."
