...great photo of governor Palin on this week's cover should scare the Democrats. You see a strong, intelligent, attractive and determined mien and an ideal partner for McCain, one who will help bring this country back to the position of strength it has occupied in the world. Joe Chernicoff, Las Vegas...
McCain's Choice I admire Joe Klein's attempt to find an honest reason for McCain's selection of Sarah Palin as his Vice President, such as his "rebelliousness" or his devotion to the issue of abortion [Sept. 15].

Even more troubling than the curtailed structure is that the McCain campaign has publicly...
...DiBella said. “My books are all swimming in the water.” Neighbors of the elderly woman heard alarms and rushed to her aid. “There was just black smoke pouring out of the apartment on the top stairs,” said Joe J. Mancini. Mancini said he and another resident broke down the victim’s door in an attempt to rescue her just before the fire department arrived. BARTLEY’S ABLAZE On Saturday morning, a fire broke out in the kitchen of Mr. Bartley’s Burger...
