Personality emerges as tight race's pivot point

Dems need to prep better for Palin

Reaction to Sarah Palin's nomination reeked of unfairness - and hypocrisy
Special to the SentinelIt won't be known for a while whether vice-presidential nominee Sarah Palin helps or hurts the Republican ticket.

Who's Kidding Who About Big Government?
You heard much talk at both national political conventions about the Iraq war, but on one thing there was universal — if silent — agreement.

Behind The Ticket's Two Faces
Republican faithful gathered this week by a Mississippi riverside. Not even GOP delegates ever seemed so old, so white or so deeply conservative.

Serving in the military doesn't guarantee votes from veterans
247-7821Being a veteran does not guarantee an election for a presidential candidate. In fact, in several recent elections, decorated combat veterans have been denied the office by the American public. In 2004, Sen.

Misdirection . . . still a spectacular play
Don't you just love it when a sports team reaches into its bag of tricks and pulls out an old misdirection play?
