...equipment in the weightlifting room had no semblance of order or organization. Both rooms had awkward and intruding pipes in the ceiling, making the spaces feel even busier. The gym lacked a television. In Adams' defense, the entire floor was nicely covered with green interlocking mats.

...Standing Apart I caught up with Snowe in the chandeliered reception room adjacent to the Senate chamber as she was racing from the Finance Committee's first drafting session for its health-care bill to a vote on the Senate floor and then to a luncheon with her Republican colleagues. She sounded almost rueful as she discussed a political environment in which her brand of bipartisan dealmaking sets her apart. "I understand politics plays a role in this process, but it should not be to the exclusion of our foremost obligation to the American people, which is to govern...
