...those willing to put in a little extra travel time, Helgen has also coordinated a system of shuttling volunteers out to Rhode Island in order to deliver some much-appreciated support for Sheldon Whitehouse, the Democratic candidate for Senate.

"Some" may end up being "a little"--only 3,000 tickets have been sold. Partiers simply plan...
...near historic lows. The military fights valiantly and enjoys the backing of the entire nation. It is just the government that is not holding up its end of the bargain, and those of us interested in politics are sick of the rest of society having to drag the public sector along as dead weight. This, in part, explains the oft-noted lack of radicalism among most of the IOP’s students. Our times are not Kennedy’s times—for the most part, we don’t need a government that fosters a civil...
