...last scrap of his national credibility, has already announced he will undergo a statewide renovation of the voting apparatus. Florida Republicans will be anxious to prove themselves merciful, and worthy of the decision they made to see Bush elected.

Perhaps the recent negotiations to fill in the details of the treaty will change the Senate's negative attitude...
...HEADBLADE A fashionably shaved head is either the ultimate in minimalist dandyism or the 21st century version of the comb-over. HeadBlade's power razor has a form as curvy and clean as Patrick Stewart's pate. Nestle it in your palm and "comb" yourself bald. It's shear elegance...
