...first tickets made public to be auctioned off online. And who is looking out for the downtrodden members of the International Olympic Committee?

SLOC president Mitt Romney said at a press conference Thursday. ?But there?s no harm in asking.? Romney shouldn?t feel shy about billing IOC members; they're rumored to have some cash lying around...

It's not surprising that the Republican presidential hopeful would want to end the story there, with his release from a Vietnamese POW camp after 5 1/2 years of captivity. His Vietnam saga is, to say the least, riveting: try to imagine being strung up by your broken arms, beaten senseless by your captors and, then, when they offer you the chance to go home, saying no because it would be dishonorable to leave ahead of those captured before you. Despite a 17-year career in Congress, during which...
