That position doesn't present much political risk for Shaw, who represents a mostly white, non-Hispanic district that includes Miami Beach. Other Republicans are less comfortable with the possibility that their party might become so identified with the anti-immigration sentiment that it turns off the Hispanic voters the party hopes to attract. Though California's Republican House delegation is likely to push for a national Proposition 187, Gingrich himself is opposed...
...something a little frustratingly soft -- in the text -- at her center. As played by David Strathairn, Kerner is more convincing as a scientist than as a squelched lover; there's something slightly too predictable -- too projectable, as Kerner the mathematician might say -- about his twitchings and jerkings when sentiment gets the better...

Do hipper-than-thou Seattle rock bands now share the sentiment? When a group is as good as Pearl Jam, it's too bad everyone isn't invited to listen...
