But it's amazing to watch so many of them walk up to the door, peek in and bolt. If they can't get it yesterday, they don't want...

After Jacob Davis used a magnum bolt-action rifle to mow down his girlfriend's ex-lover at his Tennessee high school in 1998, he dropped down beside the bleeding body. A friend came over and said to Davis, "Man, you just flushed your life down the toilet." Davis replied, "Yes, but it's been fun." The fun didn't last. Today Davis is serving a 52-year term at a medium-security correctional facility in Clifton, Tenn. Before the shooting, he had received an academic scholarship to study computer science at Mississippi State University. Instead, he takes a prison...

The Arizona Senator votes with Democrats on a number of issues and practically every Democratic senator running for President has gotten him to co-sponsor a pet bill. Bush, for his part, keeps trying to preempt McCain - for example, endorsing a rival patient...

...senator who's being coy about whether he might switch is Vermont Republican Sen. James Jeffords. When newspapers began suggesting last week that Jeffords might bolt for the Donkey Party, Jeffords had his press secretary issue a weak denial. "Sen. Jeffords is very comfortable as the most conservative member of the Vermont delegation," says spokesman Erik Smulson. "Regardless of party label, he will do what he thinks is best for Vermont and the nation." So does that mean he could do what's best for Vermont as a Democrat?
