...upper deck above home plate, one of 56,279 in attendance at Yankee Stadium to watch the Red Sox take on the Bronx Bombers in Game 7 of the American League Championship Series. My younger brother and I sat there in the eighth inning amidst a sea of mortal enemies and started going nuts as Sox slugger David Ortiz launched a home run into the Bronx night to put the Sox up 5-2 with two innings left.

Spitzer, as the Lord Chancellor, wears a constantly pained look at his moral dilemma and is also one of the more convincingly old men I have...
...cuts to produce prosperity. This is a radical departure from the mainstream traditions of American diplomacy and fiscal responsibility and should be grounds for a serious debate. But the Administration reacts to almost every challenge--from the Niger uranium flap to Clarke's testimony--as if it were a mortal threat, demonizing its opponents, stonewalling, raising the stakes. After a perfunctory first week of positive ads, the Bush campaign has unleashed a withering negative advertising blitz against Kerry...
