...Clinton ordered her motorcade to stop just outside the Binghamton airport. She hopped out of her van and, as a look of uh-oh, here-we-go flickered across the face of one of her Secret Service agents, plunged into a crowd of 50 well-wishers--the first spontaneous mosh-pit moment of Clinton's strange and improbable proto-campaign. She hugged children, signed autographs, posed for snapshots, and made deep and significant eye contact with as many peepers as possible. (There could be no doubt who had taught her the mystical arts of the rope line.) When 15-year...

Now that Love's focusing on music again, she needed a sound that fitted her new values while accessing her old passion. A sophisticated sound that still rocked...
...Newhouse family's high-luster group of magazines, which also include Vogue and GQ. She also understood that the New Yorker was different. Watching her try to blend the sacred and profane was one of the great journalistic pastimes of recent years. Her brain was a table-of-contents mosh pit: a place where a literary memoir mixed with a dispatch from Hollywood, followed by another from Paris--Adam Gopnik on French health clubs, for instance; then some Washington pages in which, say, Al Gore was pried open by Joe Klein; plus a hair-raising investigative piece on some wiggly...
