Some Republicans are worried that the Democrats could win that kind of straight-up fight on abortion. Congressman Tom Davis of Virginia, whose previous leadership job was to raise money for Republican House members up for re-election, broke with the White House message and declared last week that overturning Roe v. Wade could "produce a political backlash" among crucial suburban voters. As for a general attack on Alito, the numbers seem to break the Democrats' way. Pollster Garin, in a survey conducted before the 1985 memo came out, found that only 43% of those polled said they thought...

Lewis “Scooter” Libby. Referring to September 11 as Bush’s “little black dress”—since according to Franken, it works for almost any occasion—he called on liberals to pursue prosecutions...
...think it was a clean hit.” But the Crimson delivered a couple of solid checks itself. In the second period, with the Eagles on the power play, Harvard got caught on a line change, giving BC a 2-on-0. But senior defenseman Tom Walsh sped down the ice and threw his body at the Eagles’ forward, preventing BC from getting a shot on net. Blueliner Dave MacDonald foiled a scoring chance with a big hit as well. After losing his stick while back-checking, the defenseman simply leveled his opponent. Nevertheless, there was little...
