...Setimtic slurs at the group, prompting Garcia to approach them and call them “assholes.” The court held last week that the car’s driver, Kelleher, jumped out of the car and delivered repeated blows to Garcia’s head and chest. For this, a judge ultimately sentenced the 26-year-old Cambridge resident to a year of probation and 50 hours of community service...
...got”? We don’t know, though this is not for lack of effort on the part of front man Brandon Flowers. Emboldened by the fledgling hairs (correction: hair) on his chin, Flowers is unafraid of over-dramatization. He writhes and clutches his chest on appropriate lines like, “You sit there in your heartache,” Get it? His heart hurts. The song itself is decent, remotely danceable even. Borrowing heavily from The Cure and Bruce Springsteen, the band makes no attempt to incorporate any of the mariachi influences referenced throughout the video...
...it’s true that outward excitement sounds better than its experimental predecessor.But technically the word “rager” isn’t misleading: Late-night social events are often full of violent debauchery.

But he's making it dramatically clear that distancing himself as harshly as possible from Foley - and even calling for the heads of congressional (read G.O.P.) leaders who may have covered up for Foley - will be key to his come-from-behind prospects...
...Florida statute also dictates that a vote for Foley becomes a vote for whoever gets the G.O.P. nod. A likely replacement for Foley is Joe Negron, a state representative from the same Treasure Coast with a squeaky-clean reputation who has a $1 million campaign chest and key state supporters built up from a bid for state attorney general that he aborted earlier this year. Negron confirmed to TIME late Friday that he is "running" and spent much of Friday afternoon trying to get the party's blessing...
