Each candidate struggled last night to make a broad appeal to voters in what is a highly diverse Senate district that includes the tony Agassiz neighborhood of Cambridge and the blue-collar towns of Revere and Everett, as well as Harvard’s Yard dorms, the Law School, Adams House and the Quad...
...mouse game with inspectors. This is precisely the scenario Defense Secretary Rumsfeld and Vice President Cheney have been determined to avoid. Yet to insist, as they have done, that inspections won't remove the need to oust Saddam carries the risk of undermining the sincerity of Bush's appeal to the UN to enforce its own rules - after all, Washington won't be able to sustain the argument that Saddam was given a last chance to comply if he was also being told that he's toast even if he does.

Even temporarily allowing military recruiters to visit while the litigation was underway in order to keep the funding would have preferable to capitulating without a fight. Though a legal challenge may not have ultimately succeeded, by declining to appeal the Air Force’s decision, the law school missed an opportunity to defend its values in the courtroom...
