...movement was born. The issue wasn't today's relatively abstruse one of payments for DVDS or Internet downloads; it was simply getting paid. Tom Dreesen, a comedian and former Teamster from Chicago who became a spokesman for the comics, pleaded with Shore to give them at least a token amount. "I told Mitzi, 'You pay the waiters, you pay the waitresses, you pay the guy who cleans the toilets. Why don't you at least pay the comedians?'" says Dreesen. Many of the struggling kids who were helping her club thrive, he pointed out, couldn't even afford...
...voters' concerns nationally - the economy. Clinton won 51% of the overall vote to Obama's 45% and Edwards' embarrassingly low 4%. (Mitt Romney won the GOP caucuses easily, capitalizing on Nevada's sizeable Mormon population and the fact that none of his Republican opponents made more than a token effort in the Silver State.) Roughly 100,000 voters participated in caucuses that were moved forward in the primary calendar specifically to give a western state a say in determining who would win the two parties' nominations...

This week's setback could, by the same token, make Chavez a smarter and more effective mediator in the long run. Many still believe that his leftist bona fides make him the right man to persuade the guerrillas to release hostages and the government to free hundreds of jailed rebels. All that could in turn help end a war that has killed almost 40,000 people, displaced millions more and drawn the U.S., albeit indirectly, into the conflict with some $1 billion a year in anti-drug...
