...long ago, I was on YouTube.com. By not too long ago, I mean yesterday. The Web site has become what I am prepared to call an obsession—and with Super Tuesday on my mind, this night was more approximate to a craze. Amidst the frenzy, I managed to stumble upon a clip of Hillary Clinton in one of last year’s Democratic debates. The question posed was, “Are you a liberal?” As Hillary furtively and spinelessly answered the simple question—in effect saying no—I began...
Mitt Romney’s decision to end his presidential campaign yesterday came as a disappointing but unsurprising blow to his supporters at Harvard, just one day after a disappointing Super Tuesday for the former Massachusetts governor. In the 24 states holding caucuses or primaries earlier this week, Arizona Senator John McCain all but clinched the Republican nomination for president.

...address to the conservative conference was key to McCain's effort, especially since he shunned the gathering a year ago, apparently fearful of receiving a less welcoming reception than his arch-rival Mitt Romney. But on Thursday, two days after his disappointing showing on Super Tuesday, Romney returned to CPAC to bow out of the presidential race, clearing the way for McCain to begin a sort of dating ritual with the movement he has never followed step for step. He faces an uphill battle, but it is one he can overcome...
