...shrug, I try to avoid the question, I say it's too early-and it is. But you want to know too, right? So here it is. I like Senator Clinton. She has a wicked, ironic sense of humor (in private) and a great raucous belly laugh. She is smart and solid; she inspires tremendous loyalty among those who work for her. She is not quite as creative a policy thinker as her husband, but she easily masters difficult issues-her newfound grasp of military matters has impressed colleagues of both parties on the Armed Services Committee...
...lovers' lives. Now, the Tennessee-based Mac accessory maker Griffin Technology has created new interfaces to make iPods even more versatile. For iPodiacs, there's nothing like cruising on the open road to a customized list of tunes. But driving with headphones is illegal, so Griffin has designed a smart solution. Just slip the SmartDeck adapter ($29.95) into any cassette player and operate your iPod via the stereo controls.

...smart politico will tell you: the fundamental reason Democrats lost in 2004 is because the party seemed wobbly on national security issues—particularly Iraq. Rather than choose a) the confident anti-war argument that acting in Iraq would divert resources from America’s real enemies, or b) the confident pro-war argument that acting in Iraq would remove a threat and plant democracy in the world’s most dangerous neighborhood, we liberals appeared to choose c) the squeamish hope that post-Saddam Iraq would collapse, and Bush would get embarrassed...
