...format suited Gore; his footwork, carriage and impressively human gesticulations left Bush looking a little wan and hunched, and he scored a layup by explaining Bush's education policy for him. But the vice president never stole the show. Bush, after a nervous beginning in which he managed to botch his Carnahan-condolence line (though at least it was brief - Gore's sounded like an Oscar speech), settled down. He boiled down the tax cut/estate tax question resoundingly ("It's a fairness issue. It's an issue of principle, not politics") and delivered suitably grave response to the death penalty...

The killer punk rock boots she's wearing with flames roaring up the sides make her fancy footwork all the more dramatic. She laughs. "I'm far from a feminist, but I'm tired of seeing pretty girls falling for men who get them out of trouble." Hollywood, be warned: This is one pretty girl who doesn't pull her punches...

She taps, she swings, she celebrates movement. It's a lovely sequence: a rocker, not known for her footwork, surrendering to the beat. "I was dying to dance again," she says. What you got, Alanis?
