...follow this: the secretary of defense is killed in a mysterious anthrax attack. Former maverick senator and Vietnam POW Michael Santini is called back to Washington to take his place and play the hero (unsurprisingly, Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., gives the book a glowing endorsement). A Russian Mafia boss kills his president and sets his sights on the throne. He colludes with a brainy German gangster and a rogue Chinese general who’s planning a coup and may have tortured Santini in Vietnam.

Elizabeth Dole last week, "we're doing it all bigger." A total of 217,000 more women than men voted in Missouri in 2004. Women there, as around the country, are typically less party-loyal than men, decide later how they will vote and are more affected by late-campaign negative advertising. Most important, his Democratic opponent, the popular State Auditor Claire...
