With the help of a 70% approval rating, Obama even turned a profit on the transaction: See, he's big enough to admit mistakes, the commentariat cheered.

Harvard hit .390 for the match, compared to .181 for the Warriors. “We really needed the win to redeem ourselves,” Weissbourd said. “I think we were more focused because we all wanted to finally get a win on the road.” Harvard faces MIT Tuesday at the Malkin Athletic Center, marking its second-to-last home game of the regular season...
