...supporters argue that he would have an unmatched amount of credibility and conviction when it really counts: the moment a President decides to send troops into conflict. "The decisions you face in the White House are 50.1 against 49.9, and there are persuasive people on both sides," Kissinger says. "McCain has had the sort of experience that he could not have survived without knowing who he was and what he stood for." Says Connecticut Senator Joseph Lieberman, one of McCain's Democratic allies: "John has lived for years with these foreign-policy questions. It's not to say that someone...
...McCain is more interested in showing off the pets--the iguana, the hamster and Leo the snake--as well as the house itself with its vast deck, pool and hot tub off the master bedroom, as if to say that life has been good to him after all.

Navy doctors who reviewed his records in the past few weeks, however, say McCain has never had a recurrence of the lesions, making it "very unlikely" he actually suffered from herpes...
...going to tell you exactly what it is. Hinting that there is danger of a "Bin Laden-related" terrorist action (isn't everything these days?), the State Department over the weekend warned those Americans living beyond U.S. borders that they are in considerable danger this holiday season. Though officials say they have received word of a specific threat, Washington isn't saying where Bin Laden or other terrorists may strike, simply asking all Americans living or traveling abroad to take extra precautions - avoiding crowds and keeping a low profile are two suggestions offered - between now and the first week...
