Bush led Al Gore in the polls for months during the 2000 election, but the instant he temporarily slipped behind, he dubbed himself the underdog. Bush is the overwhelming favorite this time, but his political team is already working hard to reset political expectations. Last week the G.O.P. leaked a deliberately gloomy memo from the President's pollster, Matthew Dowd. "President Bush's approval numbers will again fall back to more realistic levels fairly quickly," Dowd wrote, "and in head to head polls in the months ahead President Bush will at times probably be behind potential Democrats."

...what would happen then, if a person lost his ID 10 times? If such an especially forgetful student came along, Wamback says, the last digit would simply be reset, beginning again at zero. Despite the many absent-minded undergraduates who have come dangerously close to accumulating ten lost ID’s, this reset function has never actually been put to the test—Wamback says that the greatest number of times a student has ever lost his ID is 9 times in four years...

If all goes well, Parsons says, the online division could return to earnings growth in 2004, at double digits in following years. If results fall short of that goal--as some industry analysts predict they will--insiders say the division will at least be dressed...
President Bush warned on Tuesday that "time is running out" for Saddam Hussein to disarm and avoid a U.S. invasion. But while the clock is ticking, there are signs that the alarm may have been reset. Where once the assumption had been that the January 27 Security Council report by UN weapons inspectors would mark a moment of decision, the Bush Administration now appears to have concurred with its allies and with the inspectors that it would not be treated as a deadline. U.S. and British officials have since the weekend stressed that the inspectors would be given time...
