Ripe-voiced Graham is well on her way to becoming the Renee Fleming of mezzo-sopranos. Her starring role in the San Francisco Opera's upcoming premiere of Jake Heggie's Dead Man Walking will probably do the trick. So why not board the bandwagon early?

New Hampshire conservatives, moderates and independent voters all jumped on the McCain bandwagon. Why? One word: character.
