...South Koreans remain evenly split on the troops issue. Nearly 50% oppose the dispatch, according to a recent television poll?down from 56% earlier this year?while 48.5% are in favor. But Kim's gruesome death has already transformed some opponents of the deployment into angry supporters. Marketing expert Kim Eun Kyung, 27, objected to helping with the war, saying, "It felt like we were a puppet of the U.S." But now, she says, "I want us to send a lot of troops.

Wines here are still reasonably priced, and you'll probably want to take home a few bottles when you visit. (Warning: wine is fragile.

"I believe he's a visionary," says Dr. Richard Malik, the veterinary specialist...

That may seem counterintuitive: traditionally stocks have done better under Democrats, who generally have been willing to ignore deficits and inflation while focusing on economic growth (good for stocks). Yet that fairly describes Bush today. Meanwhile, Kerry has pledged to cut the deficit in half, which would keep interest rates down (good for bonds). Also, he would try to rescind the tax cut on stock dividends. That could cast a pall...
