Before a friendly but still skeptical Evangelical crowd at Warren's Saddleback Church in Lake Forest, Calif., on Saturday night, McCain won a roar of approval when Warren asked him at what point a human being gets human rights: "At the moment of conception," McCain replied. The answer was clear, unequivocal and a great relief to restless Republicans who had endured a week of indigestion on the issue. Murmurs that McCain was flirting with a pro-choice running mate like former Pennsylvania governor Tom Ridge or Joe Lieberman had Rush Limbaugh and his army in full stampede...
...relay in the last 20 years," said Reese. "This was a tough one to win, but those are always the best ones to win." For Phelps, who swam the opening leg, it means his gold medal count now stands at two, a fact that helps explain his almost primal roar when Lezak finally came to the wall. And things may get even easier: in his remaining events, Phelps is either the world record holder or owns the fastest time this year.

And so Obama would be wise to change course now: challenge McCain to town-hall debates on the Sunday nights after each convention--one before...
...another Republican-held congressional seat. While McCain fights hard for the White House, widespread voter dissatisfaction with President Bush and his party's positions suggests Democrats may enjoy formidable majorities in both houses come January. Obama, presumably drained from months of campaigning, is using the Summer Olympics' opening roar to retreat to Hawaii. McCain will mostly stay on the trail but plans to use some time out of the spotlight to prepare for the fall debates. With the Beijing Games likely to dominate the nation's airwaves and the public's attention, McCain will be more visible but get less...
