There's a flip side to this as well--the argument that Obama is dangerously weak among key Democratic and swing constituencies. The Clinton campaign has been raising questions about Obama's ability to win white blue-collar voters in states like Ohio and Pennsylvania and Hispanics in places like New Mexico and Colorado--all swing states that will most likely decide the election...

Dubbed "Headline Howard" by colleagues irked by his outspokenness, Metzenbaum explained that to generate discussion, "sometimes you have to be an s.o.b...

...with a serious demeanor, simply has the look of a slugger. But the Oakland, Calif. native is somewhat of an enigma. Although he showed flashes of raw power last season—like his ninth inning, pinch-hit three-run blast off of Ohio State closer Jake Hale during the Crimson’s trip to Florida last March— Prince was hampered by a bad hip that prevented him from finding a rhythm. He is now finally healthy after extensive rehab, and Walsh is excited to see Prince in action.“He was hopping down...
