...world at war with toxins, violence, global warming and weird diseases, Nancy Gibbs' attack on Valentine's Day (which she called "A Day to Forget") is right up there with the Grinch stealing Christmas [Feb. 18]. Perhaps Gibbs, too, needs to check the size of her heart. She noted that the feast day's origins are murky, but its popularity throughout so many centuries suggests that the stories of Valentinus' deeds in the service of love have caught the public's imagination. Before condemning things of legend, consider how we have incorporated tales of another saint into our lives. Although...
...Klein's "Inspiration vs. Substance" [Feb. 18]: I am a 55-year-old independent voter, and while my mind says Hillary Clinton, my heart says Barack Obama. I have had concerns about his experience, but as he bests Clinton in state after state, it is becoming clear to me that this man has the judgment to surround himself with people of experience who know how to face challenges creatively.

Saying "I love you" is easy--if somewhat caloric...
...heart of the coming debate with Democrats is the war in Iraq, for which McCain is the nation's most public proponent outside the White House. Democrats, including Clinton and Obama, hope to focus the debate on the past, on the mistakes that have been made and the cost in blood and treasure, which most Americans disapprove of. McCain, on the other hand, is determined to focus the debate on what to do next, about which the Democratic candidates have remained remarkably vague beyond saying they want to promptly begin a drawdown in forces. "I believe I can convince...
...Hollywood filmmaker instead of by the muse of history, the opening scene would be set beneath the spreading pecan trees of the Scholz Garten in Austin, Texas. Of all the beer joints in all the world, this venerable watering hole near the state capitol may come closest to the heart of Texas' Democratic Party. Liberals have been hatching plans here since Lyndon Johnson was a big-eared kid, and for a few months in 1972, it was the venue of choice for the young organizers of George McGovern's quixotic Texas presidential campaign - including Hillary Rodham and her future husband...
