...ballroom (which you might remember as the site of Howard Dean's unfortunate 2004 primal scream) in West Des Moines, with his buddy, martial arts star Chuck Norris. The campaign is trying to book a band with which Huckabee, a bass player, could jam. Hillary Clinton and husband, Bill, will host a party across town featuring the band Big Head Todd and the Monsters.

With so much fractiousness and scandal, Bhutto's first government lasted only until August 1990, dismissed by the country's President for "horse-trading for personal gain." Soon after...
...last week, Clinton straddled both the past and future. She?s paraded an impressive stream of former Clinton Administration officials - including former U.N. Ambassador Richard Holbrooke, former Veteran Affairs Secretaries Togo West and Hershel Gober, former NATO Supreme Commander General Wesley Clark and, of course, her husband, President Bill Clinton - through Iowa while declaring herself an agent of change.
