...lister to give the former Massachusetts Governor his blessing. In announcing his endorsement, Moral Majority co-founder Paul Weyrich praised Romney's "clear conservative vision" and "exceptional record of putting conservative values to work." And he sent a plain message to wavering Christian-right leaders who have threatened to bolt the GOP if either Romney, a Mormon and recent convert on abortion, or the pro-choice Rudy Giuliani are nominated: stay the course...
...Adoring Springbok fans have called talk shows to express their fears that their stars would all bolt from the country and leave South Africa with little hope for future wins. A few weeks ago, government officials dropped a decision to bar Springbok players from playing future international tournaments if they played for local teams overseas. As the political arguments have grown more heated, one South African rugby blogger wrote wistfully this week: "We knew it was too good to last!

In the same week, the Israeli army...
...party waits to pounce on any perceived misstep. That has forced Rice to wade neck-deep into Israeli politics, meeting with two key conservative faction leaders in Olmert's coalition - Eli Yishai of the Shas Party and Avigdor Lieberman of Yisreal Beitenu, who have warned Olmert that they would bolt if he goes too far on any of the final status issues. It may be unusual for America's top diplomat to court such figures, and risk inflating their sense of their own influence, but she is hoping to ensure that the Annapolis gathering doesn't torpedo Olmert's government...
