...felt quite disappointed after reading McCain's interview because of his attitude toward the interviewer. Sometimes a journalist has to ask questions whose answers he's supposed to know, but they may be interesting for the readers.

...Lori Stern, an administrative assistant in Des Moines, Iowa, who lost her second job at a coffee shop when it closed. Stern went to her state's Republican caucuses in January, listened and left without voting. She still hasn't made up her mind, though she's now leaning toward Obama. "I'm very aware of what's going on and have paid attention, but I find it really hard to be trustful of politicians in general," she says. That sentiment is echoed by Beth Seidel, a factory worker in Cleveland who works the third shift so she can take...
