...Political candidates are seen in many ways as a product today, so the process in a lot of ways is similar," says Don Hinman, a data-quality expert at Acxiom. But you can't always sell candidates like soap. Rules of branding don't apply when your product changes his policies every two months. If a party doesn't have a strong candidate with a resonating message, no software in the world will solve that problem.

But, he says, "if we can provide them food, we may be the boost they need to work themselves out of the circle of poverty." Well and good, says Ann Eissler, who coordinates...
...their best, the electives have the intensity and ferment of Kelly Wise's novel and drama course. Wise's teaching style is vastly different from that of Georgie Hinman, a legendary Latin teacher of an earlier Andover who stabbed penknives into his peg leg to express disapproval and made students flush bad translations down the toilet. Wise, in contrast, has a more casual attitude toward the 14 seniors in his class. "I don't act as a sage," says Wise.
