...sponsor of the SAVE Act says McCain is fighting the effort behind the scenes. McCain denies it, but he is in a tough spot. If he repudiates the bill, he will look soft on enforcement, infuriating conservatives and alienating some working-class white swing voters. But if Republicans become identified with an enforcement-only policy, McCain will cede a lot of Hispanic votes and business support to the Democrats. His best option is to tell the truth: the SAVE Act isn't so much wrong as it is incomplete. Republicans have to offer Hispanics more than a fence...

So when one of them asks him to research a securities-fraud topic, for example, or breach of contract, he doesn't even think about applying his $395 hourly rate.

...indie-pop band The Olivia Tremor Control, who have been previously cited by Danger Mouse as a significant influence. Some of the album’s less hectic tracks showcase the neo-soul that the duo is best known for. “Who’s Gonna Save My Soul” is basically a mellow reprise of “Crazy,” with Cee-Lo wearily belting the titular question. Excellent album opener “Charity Case” adds female background vocals and a delicate funk beat to Cee-Lo’s admission...

...single fantasy team and have only been to ESPN.com a handful of times. And I’m a girl. But, still, I absolutely love the Dallas Mavericks. Will Leitch is a fan, too. He is a fan of sports fans. His new book “God Save the Fan,” a collection of ruminations on all things sports, bemoans what he sees as the loss of the sports fan’s influence in the sports industry. He claims today’s world of professional athletics is dominated by big money contracts and organizations like...
