...Hillary Clinton lately has deployed the argument among Democrats that she should be nominated because she has a proven record of vanquishing her enemies. So she might think it's to her advantage to put her knife-fighting skills on display. Former Vice President Al Gore has privately told friends that his familiarity with the Clintons' hardball campaign style is one of the reasons he would be leery of making a run against Hillary.

A well-intentioned world geography teacher decided to read “Tuesdays with Morrie” out loud to our class in the hopes of imparting wisdom and decreasing the number of knife-fights that broke out each month. I may still have difficulty locating Namibia on a map, but that class imparted something more lasting than cartographical knowledge: a passionate hatred for the insipid, as embodied in the literature of Albom.For those fortunate enough to be unacquainted with his work, Albom...
