...bowel syndrome. 3) Turn off the heat, open the window, and get naked—we call this frostbite for a cause. 4) Participate in a sleep deprivation experiment for psych labs—check into UHS for drooling and hallucinations. 5) Want a free pass on your term paper? Read Faust’s new Civil War book, visit her at Mass Hall, and ask for your own personal Emancipation Proclamation. 6) Play up your “skin allergies”— make sure the rash shows up in a highly visible, not-so-private place...

Romney had the overpowering optimism of Ronald Reagan, the family values of Dan Quayle, the hair and handsome looks of Jack Kemp and the manners of George H.W. Bush. On paper, each piece of the Romney contraption was designed to appeal to a different part of the scattered G.O.P. coalition. But the overall formula wasn't working as expected. Romney placed second in Iowa and New Hampshire, despite pouring millions of his own fortune into the race. His rivals among...
