...stricken with the loss of both a wife and a mistress, was taken by his chaffeur for a little cheering up to Gigi's Cabaret. It was the kind of place where young women dance exotically for their suppers. And that is how Anna Nicole found her second husband, Howard Marshall II, one of the richest men in Texas. They married in June 1994. He was 89 and she was 26. "He wanted to make me happy," she said. "His wish was my command...
...rest is tabloid history. Marshall died 14 months later and Anna Nicole joined James Howard Marshall III, who had been disowned by his father, in a still ongoing legal war with her other stepson, E. Pierce Marshall over the $1.6 billion estate. That battle, however, ensures that not all of Anna Nicole's story will be told in tabloid form. A year ago, the aggrieved widow, dressed in black, her blonde curls tamed, appeared inside the hallowed chamber of the U.S. Supreme Court. What followed was a unanimous decision authored by Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg that gave new life...
...never found her Clark Gable. But she seemed to have wanton fun in the search. Her last beau, lawyer Howard K. Stern, perhaps the father or not of her five-month-old daughter, had joined her in a legally non-binding "commitment" ceremony in the Bahamas in late September last year, two weeks after her son's death.

With his call earlier this week for higher taxes on both the wealthy and businesses to support his massive $120 billion-per-year universal health-care plan, John Edwards continued a series of moves that have made him the 2008 campaign's Howard Dean. No, no, the former vice-presidential nominee hasn't replaced his Southern drawl with a Northeastern screech. But just as Dean went from pragmatic, centrist governor to liberal hero in 2003 by taking a strong anti-war stand and often criticizing Democrats in Washington for not standing up to President Bush, Edwards has transformed himself from...
...Before the Edwards campaign recruited Marcotte, it found another biting left-wing feminist voice in blogger Melissa McEwan of Shakespeare's Sister. He has given overall control of Internet strategy to Mathew Gross, the man who pioneered that job for Howard Dean in 2004. The efforts seemed at first to pay off: Edwards almost always wins the nonscientific but closely watched monthly straw poll organized by liberal blogger Markos Moulitsas. At the Democratic fund-raising site ActBlue, he has raised $765,000 so far, nearly three times as much as any other candidate on the website...
