...again in 2008. The Democrats put together a coalition not just of declining and disadvantaged groups - industrial workers and African Americans - but - also of rising forces like Hispanics, Asians, and well-to-do whites in the expanding service sector. But strategic repositioning - offering both honey and condensed milk - is easier in the Anglo-American two-party system that doesn't throw up parties to the left of the left...
...issue of TIME was the first in the magazine's history to use only words: "Is God Dead?" The story brought a brimstone of controversy, but given the depth of the reporting, few could argue that the writer had not done his homework. "It would have been easier to do in the Middle Ages," John Elson said of the story. "Easier because they had a God then that was consistent."

The issue is hardly fringe: last year, some 40% of children were born outside of marriage. "We have to build a system where people can be both good workers and good parents," says Cancian...
...goes as your quarterback goes, but your quarterback also only goes as good as his supporting cast,” Murphy says. “I think by having a relatively experienced offensive line group and receiving group, it’s going to make the transition a lot easier.”Providing a balance on the offense is the deep running back position. Junior Gino Gordon is looking to build on his superb sophomore season and, according to Murphy, is only getting better in preseason. Joining him is a healthy senior Cheng Ho, giving the Crimson no shortage...
