...party, McCain found himself unable to control his own destiny. In the final weeks, he ran a hard race, refusing to give up in the face of daunting polls. "It's the only way to finish anything that you do in life, that's a competitive venture, which is full speed," explained Schmidt...

Colorado voters on Tuesday rejected Amendment 48, which would have defined a "person" from the point of egg fertilization. If the measure had passed, Colorado would have become the first state to grant full constitutional rights to a fertilized egg. The potentially far-reaching ramifications of such a decision divided the anti-abortion community, and the amendment lost endorsements from prominent activists who felt the personhood definition went too far. The amendment was defeated nearly...

Absolutely. That's why I talk about the double-standard in coverage. In the beginning, McCain did not really come out swinging against Obama. Obama, from the North Carolina primary until yesterday, never gave a speech in this country in which it wasn't a full on assault on McCain's brand. We had spots making fun of McCain on computers, for owning seven houses, saying he had turned his back on Hispanics, saying that he opposed stem cell research, mischaracterizing his position on Social Security, on Medicare.
