...industry's largest companies all claim to screen and train their applicants rigorously. Yet just since last fall, guards for Burns, the industry leader, with more than $650 million in revenues, have been arrested for everything from setting fire to an abandoned building in Colorado (it took 42 fire fighters to put it out) to vacuuming thousands of dollars in change from public bus boxes in San Francisco, to stealing $13,000 in computer equipment from a client in Syracuse. After a five-month probe at New Jersey's Meadowlands arena, a grand jury documented 20 cases in which Burns...
...size. "Homelessness," he barks, "isn't an epidemic -- it's a pandemic." As he holds court at a local coffee shop, relating the tale of how he won a two-year police-harassment case, he keeps an eye on the sports page as he speaks. "Hey, Georgia Tech beat Colorado State." Some of his resentful neighbors will tell you that Kreimer is a publicity-mad hustler, a man who has gotten over on the town because he combines the ego of a rock star with the vindictiveness of a Mafia...
...hope of picking up small blocs of delegates in many states. He also looks west, striving for a base that will keep him in the contest until the final primaries in June.

By stressing his background as war hero, successful businessman and citizen-politician, it aims to prove Kerrey has the drive to keep his promises. Then the candidate followed up with an ad challenging Clinton's and Tsongas's environmental credentials...

Most of the other Clinton commercials mirror his candidacy -- smooth, warm, persuasive, calculated with an insider's finesse to play on the public's anger at insiders...
...that to set the mood for Super Tuesday, the Arkansas Governor has to first sweep Georgia (March 3) and South Carolina (March 7). A bit trickier is Clinton's need to prove that he can win outside the South, perhaps by trying to spend his rivals into oblivion in Colorado (March 3) or, less likely, by going head-to-head with Tsongas in Maryland the same day. Clinton's hopes, especially in the South, rest on mobilizing middle-class anger behind his plan for economic recovery...
