...proposals. The method is similar to the process Pelosi went through in crafting her highly successful Six for '06 campaign that helped the Democrats retake control of the House, involving six core Democratic issues that she pledged to push legislation on if elected. Cantor's scheme also shares some DNA with the 1994 Contract with America that helped Republicans win the House. "The essentials are the same: these are the issues that are impacting Middle America that are being ignored by the majority, and if you elect us, they won't be left out," says Dick Armey, a former Republican...

Plenty of bands sing about sex, but Kings of Leon use their history to suggest that sex eases the burden of their shattered innocence, and they make music about it to reinforce their fraternal connection. They're aching emotional savants with deep wounds that require constant...

A medical system that holds the promise of unlocking new cures is attached to a health care system that has the potential to bankrupt families and businesses and our government. A global marketplace that links the trader on Wall Street to the homeowner on Main Street to the factory worker in China -- an economy in which we all share opportunity is also an economy in which we all share...
