...House Masters for the past eight years, Lino Pertile and his wife Anna Bensted have certainly made their presence known on Harvard’s campus. Pertile, the Carl A. Pescosolido Professor of Romance Languages and Literatures, is a renowned Dante scholar, and Bensted works at the National Public Radio affiliate in Boston. However, they refrain from dubbing themselves a “power couple...
Over the past several weeks, Rush Limbaugh has led a cacophonous chorus of conservative complaint against Republican presidential nominee-to-be John McCain. On Wednesday, the reigning king of talk radio kindly agreed to a phone interview with TIME, a member of another one of his frequent targets, the mainstream media.

I firmly believe that conservatism - genuinely articulated, passionately articulated - wins in national elections most every time it's tried. I tell people, "Go back to the '80s." Ronald Reagan did not have talk radio or an alternative media supporting him. What was he down - in the House of Representatives - the Democrat margin then was what, 130 seats or something? And [the Republicans] were led by a guy named Bob Michel, whose objective every day was to make sure he was invited to play golf with...
