...Space Odyssey, Raging Bull ... Oops, sorry again. None of those films won the top Oscar, and half weren't even nominated for Best Picture. But what about the acting categories? Surely Hollywood has recognized its most potent performers. Not always. If this year's nominated actors want to join the exalted ranks of Charlie Chaplin, Greta Garbo, Cary Grant, Peter O'Toole and Barbara Stanwyck, they'd better hope they lose, since none of these luminaries received a competitive Oscar...
...expected the state's primary to mean much when the Texas Legislature declined to join the Super Tuesday lineup a year ago. Lone Star political junkies resigned themselves to the conventional wisdom that the race would be over by the time March 4 rolled around. But with many now arguing that Hillary Clinton's chance at the nomination hangs in the balance, Texas Democrats are enjoying the limelight and energized after years of enduring Republican dominance at the statehouse.

There should be a group called Enablers Anonymous for Kasparov and Tyrangiel to join. I may not help madmen by refusing to patronize them, but at least I don't have to feel like a patsy. Leslie Gerber, SAUGERTIES...
...cuts through - a number of things. It can be done. We're dealing, I think, with [Nancy] Pelosi and [Harry] Reid, two of the most incompetent, ineffective Democratic leaders in my lifetime. Now the idea that we conservatives cannot go beat these people without having some of them join us as who they are - it offends the hell out of me. Conservatism, if you look at Reagan, that kind of leadership, it can happen. And so, yeah, I would love to try to be a force, of seeing to it that that's part of a national Republican campaign - absolutely...
