“The CBS Evening News With Katie Couric” launches its “Presidential Candidates” series tonight. Couric will ask the same questions to Barack Obama and John McCain, with their answers shown back-to-back on the newscast, TVNewser reports. Tonight’s questions are about the fact that there hasn’t been a terrorist attack on U.S. soil since 9/11 and about the flaws the candidates believe they have that would hinder their ability to be president. Every Wednesday will feature new questions for the candidates.
