...window wasn’t down. 3:42 AM—At last, I stagger up the steps and plop down near the shuttle’s sole other passenger, a nicely-coiffed young brunette, tennis shoes in hand for tomorrow’s walk of shame. The four a.m. Quad booty-call: a freshman mistake. 3:48 AM—The other passenger on the shuttle disembarks at the Quad and I see the driver’s stare in the rearview mirror as I cozy up and prepare for the return.

Hillary Clinton blunted the momentum of surging Barack Obama, and John McCain pulled out a victory in his old electoral stamping grounds, as record numbers of voters put polls and pundits to shame in New Hampshire. On both sides, it was a political roller coaster of the old school - the wooden kind that shakes and quakes until you really aren't sure how it will end. And then it pulls in to the finish with a shudder, and everyone piles off to get back in line...
