...Debates about budget policy have rested in this comfortable if unedifying rut for too long. In fact, the most striking thing about McCain's plan was how closely it mimicked the dismal debates of over 20 years ago, when Congress passed massive tax cuts and then pasted on Band-Aids like Gramm-Rudman-Hollings legislation to compel reductions in spending that never materialized. The mildewy whiff of McCain's economic policies intensified three days after the budget speech, when Phil Gramm himself appeared, in his capacity as McCain's economic guru, and pronounced that the country was in the midst...

...notched four unanswered nets—including three free-position shots—in the first 13 minutes against Martino. The back-up goalkeeper made two stops but made room for starter Tylander to close out the game. “We recognized that we were falling into a rut,” Martin said. “We got a little complacent and we needed to maintain the intensity.” Halpern notched an unassisted tally to extend the Harvard lead to 11-7, and that proved to be all the Crimson would need to solidify its fourth...
