When Harvard rattled off nine straight points to open up a 10-point lead just minutes into the second half, it seemed Northeastern would need a miraculous change of fortune in order to turn the tide. After co-captain Hana Peljto sank a short jumper midway through the period, it looked like the Huskies (3-2) would have to tear the lead away from a determined and rejuvenated Crimson (3-3) squad. But with the ball at mid-court and 8.4 seconds left in the game, down by one, it was Harvard that desperately needed to regain control...

Dean isn?t a racist, but the comment shows he can get himself in trouble by speaking faster than he thinks. That same tendency sank McCain?s hopes in 2000 when he decided to attack Jerry Falwell and the Christian right. George W. Bush proved in those primaries that he is a disciplined campaigner, and while Dean?s primary opponents haven?t been able to strike mortal wounds with Dean?s missteps so far, Bush...
