He'll spend 15 days in August in Iowa, going to the state fair (he prefers funnel cakes to fried Twinkies), speaking to the trial lawyers association there and campaigning for gubernatorial candidate Chet Culver and other Democrats on the ticket.

But for the young broker?and for most of those wounded in the Bombay blasts, who are able to afford the price of a first-class train ticket in large part due to the economic reforms that Singh set in motion as far back as the early 1990s?the admiration arises from the main reason why they live in Bombay: to make money. Bombay gets struck again and again because it is, more than any other Indian city...
