  1. President to president

    "You will be our president when you read this note," George Herbert Walker Bush wrote to Bill Clinton, the man who defeated him in the 1992 campaign, denying Mr. Bush the provisional vindication that reelection provides until history has its chance to judge from a distance. Nonetheless, in Oval Office tradition, Mr. Bush left a note for Mr. Clinton to read on taking office, and it echoed the message of transitions past, even between bitter political rivals: "I am rooting hard for you."

  5. Bush's pithy endorsement of Romney

    Former President George W. Bush uttered his endorsement for president the other day as an elevator door was closing on him. To a question shouted by a reporter, he was said to have answered, simply, "I'm for Mitt Romney," and that was it.

  7. Religion and politics, but no fireworks

    Unless you want a fight to break out at a cocktail party or a family reunion, conventional wisdom has it, don't talk religion or politics. I did both in this space last Monday, and then I crawled in a bunker and waited for the fireworks to begin. "Be...

  13. Questions persist for Derby contender Union Rags, and for his handlers

    Michael Matz and his assistants are tired of the question — most trainers and riders are by this point in the week before the country's most talked-about horse race — and give mostly a perfunctory answer.

  15. The curse of Mitt's millions

    Although Mitt Romneyis now on the brink of nomination as the 2012 Republican presidential standard-bearer, the question remains as to why so much doubt lingers about him. A central concern seems to be that he's just too rich to understand the problems of the rest of us.

  17. What now for Republicans?

    Rick Santorum deserves credit for his impressive primary victories in Mississippi and Alabama. Newt Gingrich led us to believe he would win both states. He didn't, but he has vowed to fight on as the "real" conservative candidate, as opposed to Mitt Romney, who only "says" he is a conservative.

  21. Who's right about church and state, Kennedy or Santorum?

    Much has been written and said recently about the First Amendment and freedom of religion in the context of the current political atmosphere. Many of the most provocative comments have been about contraception, abortion rights and health insurance. Some  politicians and pundits claim that  President Barack Obama is attacking religion or religious institutions. Presidential hopeful Rick Santorum  stoked the fires by criticizing the 1960 speech given by John F. Kennedy when he ran for president. Kennedy, trying to become the first Roman Catholic president, said that he favored the "absolute" separation of church and state. (Unsuccessful Catholic candidate Al Smith had given a similar speech in 1928.)
