Just as damaging is the perception that she is a clumsy campaigner who somehow failed to inherit the family's political touch. What was lost in the growing sense of inevitability that surrounded her candidacy was the fact that she had never won election on her own. In 1986 she ran for Congress and lost, making it into office on Glendening's ticket eight years later. Her syntax is Bush-like, rather than Kennedyesque. Appearing at aretirement community last week, she acknowledged a politician's support by saying, "Thank you that for" and inviting the audience togive him "a rounding...

Editor Diana Schutz solicited work for "Happy Endings" (Dark Horse Comics; $9.95; 96pp.) that would, according to her, "somehow fit under the overarching umbrella" of the title. Interestingly, only a few of the contributions took the mandate literally. Harvey Pekar, of "American Splendor," proffers a disturbing piece about his mental breakdown and the return of a malignant tumor. He ends with "I'm trying to work my way through. What else is there?" Mixing independent newcomers with such big-name artists as Frank Miller ("The Dark Knight Strikes Back,") "Happy Endings" has the most mainstream appeal of the four anthologies...
...growing tension over Iraq, one eye on a wretched Dow. If he (and the rest of the party) is lucky, this could be the year the Democrats hit two key issues at exactly the right time.
