...Clark has struggled to lay a glove on him. In the Oct. 14 debate, a panel member explored the idea of Key as a Nowhere Man, the candidate having admitted in an interview that while he was a commerce student at the University of Canterbury, he'd had no strong feelings about the controversial 1981 South African rugby union tour of New Zealand. A radical in her student days, Clark would have enjoyed her opponent's discomfort. But it's hard to believe that voters would seek to punish Key for a bout of indifference nearly 30 years...
...Only thing more confusing than the byzantine course Justin Fox traverses in asserting that McCain was right about the economy's fundamentals being strong is his claim that Palin was "on to something" when she elaborated [Oct. 27].

...even if the West were to go for McCain, he would still need a strong turnout - though not necessarily an outright victory - in the suburbs of Philadelphia like Downingtown, Blue Bell, Yardley and Bensalem, which are traditionally Republican-friendly, but have been trending Democratic for a decade. Though he has spent most of the campaign appealing to the conservative base, McCain has been sure to highlight his maverick streaks to appeal to more moderate Republicans and independents in this area...
