...according to Trimble.“At no point in our minds was there any thought that they were going to beat us,” Trimble said. “So when they did, we picked up the energy—turned things around to execute our game plan.”The Crimson opened an early 9-3 lead in the third frame that it refused to relinquish en route to a 30-16 win and then finished off Wofford with a decisive 30-18 victory in game four.HARVARD 3, DELAWARE STATE 0Harvard put its right foot forward...

And there's a bonus in this for the President as well: if a close vote makes it to the floor of the Senate, Bush can allow most of the moderate...
...easing troop-deployment schedules. Despite or maybe because of the consistent and vocal demands of the party's antiwar flank, none of the Democratic efforts have yet attracted lasting bipartisan support. The few that have come close fall well short of veto-proof margins. The best proposals, like the plan developed by Democratic Senators Carl Levin of Michigan and Jack Reed of Rhode Island that would begin withdrawals by 120 days after passage, mustered only 52 votes, not enough to overcome a filibuster or override a veto...
