Example Input: (CNN) -- Verizon pulled a rabbit out of its corporate hat earlier this month. The wireless giant announced a multibillion-dollar deal to purchase rights to largely unused spectrum, which is like an open lane on the congested wireless Internet highway. Verizon purchased these rights from Comcast and Time Warner, two large cable-TV companies, and the smaller Bright House Networks. Sound familiar? AT&T made a similarly surprising move in March, declaring its intention to buy T-Mobile, in large part to get access to T-Mobile's underused spectrum. The AT&T deal drew the wrath of the Justice Department and the FCC. Indeed, it appears the current incarnation of the AT&T proposed merger is dying a slow death. U.S. District Judge Ellen Segal Huvelle agreed on Monday to a request from both sides to delay the merger hearing, and asked AT&T to supply information on whether it will pursue a different deal with T-Mobile.Writers: Verizon, AT&T deals are attempts to get more spectrum for wireless servicesSpectrum, or bandwidth, is getting scarce because it is badly used, they maintainWashington could sell spectrum for billions of dollars, they say, still minimize monopoliesWriters: Until then, regulators should look more kindly on telecom mergers

Example Input: (CNN) -- The midterm elections are a week away. Control of the Senate will be decided by a handful of close contests that remain competitive in the final days. In an era of narrow majorities in the upper chamber, just one or two races can make all the difference in terms of who will be in control. Most experts are predicting that Republicans will gain the Senate, though there are a few outliers, like my colleague at Princeton University, Sam Wang, whose statistical models have been showing that Democrats can still be victorious. In the coming days, here are six campaigns to watch. In each of these states Republicans are holding their ground by connecting their opponent to President Obama while Democrats strike back by reminding voters of extremism in the GOP.The outcome of six races could determine whether the U.S. remains in Democrats' handsJulian Zelizer: Democrats citing GOP extremism; Republicans cite Obama's performanceIn four of the states, Democratic incumbents are seeking to win re-electionZelizer: Can White House reverse historical pattern of midterm losses?
