...RUSS FEINGOLD, U.S. Senator, Wisconsin WASHINGTON...
...suggesting that John McCain is a plausible front-runner for the Republican nomination. Republicans tend not to like people like McCain: too wild, too willing to work with Senators like Ted Kennedy (gasp!) and Russ Feingold (gulp!) on legislation. Then again, what are the options? There is no plausible front-runner. Each of the Republicans is flawed and flailing. The despair and hilarity as the various candidates try to squeeze into the conservative base's straitjacket, like the stepsisters struggling to fit into Cinderella's slipper, have been the gaudiest political show...
...earlier, McCain had been confronted by a woman who upbraided him for not being a "real" Republican because of his dealings with Kennedy and Feingold. "I reminded her about Ronald Reagan standing in the Rose Garden with Tip O'Neill, a liberal Democrat, pledging to fix Social Security," McCain told me later, with some satisfaction.

While a similar link between hyperactivity and sugar remains unproven, Hallowell cautions parents to watch the sweets...
...cleverness of Bush's strategy was apparent when Senator Russ Feingold asked Petraeus and Ambassador Ryan Crocker a very important question: Which should have the higher priority in the war against al-Qaeda, Iraq or the rebuilt al-Qaeda leadership and terrorist camps, festering on the Afghanistan-Pakistan border? Feingold had forced Crocker, the elusive former ambassador to Pakistan, into a corner and then, inexplicably, let him off the hook and turned to Petraeus, who rightly claimed a lack of knowledge or authority to answer that question. The nonanswer stood as the Bush Administration's response to an essential strategic...
