Glazer’s running mate is Clay T. Capp ’06, who serves as council treasurer. Samita A. Mannapperuma ’06, chair of the council’s Finance Policy Committee, is running for vice president alongside Nicolais...
Despite her name, Hillary Clinton might not be the most Clintonesque candidate in the race for the nomination. That distinction would belong to Edwards if he runs, as many Democratic insiders assume he will. Supporters of Kerry's running mate are quick to point out that the only Democrats to win the White House in the past 44 years--Clinton, Carter and Johnson--were Southerners.

He recorded radio spots...
