...challenge her to join him in opposing Lieberman-Warner because it would give away billions to heavily polluting industries. Edwards had denounced the bill as a "corporate windfall," but Clinton--who serves on the Senate's Environment and Public Works Committee and will soon have to vote on it--hadn't taken a position. The day before, Friends of the Earth Action, which has endorsed Edwards, started running a radio ad in Iowa praising Edwards for his "courageous stand against the bill" and urging voters to "call Senator Clinton and tell her we've had enough of corporate polluters...

For example, at Iowa City, Iowa's South East Junior High School, girls who hadn't seen each other for an entire 42-minute class often stopped to hug each other in hallways during the four-minute break between classes. The hugging clogged the 700-student school's hallways. So Deb Wretman, the principal, developed a "hands-off, or handshake" slogan to limit greetings to a handshake.
