But he would certainly accept a "draft," and those who saw him during two recent speechmaking trips to Washington figured that he was already measuring himself for Jack Kennedy's rocking chair. Many Michiganders resent this; they insist that Romney ought to live up to his gubernatorial campaign promises and solve state problems before he tries to move out into national politics.

I resent Mr. Burke's even attempting to use the University's rules to prevent delivery of birthday cakes by a competitor; I resent Mr. Burke's success in using those rules to prevent competition with the HSA sampler...
...story is finally and irrevocably lost, and the movie becomes a dreary plug for the Alcoholics Anonymous, with numbered lessons, scraps of psychology, and frequent slogans. "At first it will be hell, but you can do it." "Your wife will want you to drink along with her; she'll resent your staying sober." "Listen--for twelve years I was drunk, and for fourteen years I've been sober. It's two different worlds...
