Something just came to me today. Remember how the VNS messup in 2000 depressed Panhandle and Pacific voters? I've got a serious concern.From what I've been reading, early voters trend very heavily Republican. It follows logically that not so many Republicans will vote on November 2nd.Are the exit polls going to account for this? I'm now scared that they'll be wrongly predicting a heavy Democrat turnout in early-voting states. Who is conducting exit polling this year now that VNS has broken up? Is there any way we can contact them and ask them to take this in account?

America has been in Bosnia and Kosovo since about 1995 and 1998, respectively. What are the exit strategies from those places? From the weak-kneed folks who yearn to turn tail and run from Iraq a mere year and a half into the campaign, one hears no clamor at all to “exit” the Balkans. In short, having an exit strategy sounds like your side is LOSING....and is asking “How do I disentangle myself?” That thought should be far from our minds in Iraq. The truth is that in Iraq we had historic success in the high intensity phase of combat, and...

Inside the Bush administration policymaking apparatus, there is strong feeling that U.S. troops must leave Iraq next year. This determination is not predicated on success in implanting Iraqi democracy and internal stability. Rather, the officials are saying: Ready or not, here we go. This prospective policy is based on Iraq's national elections in late January, but not predicated on ending the insurgency or reaching a national political settlement. Getting out of Iraq would end the neoconservative dream of building democracy in the Arab world. The United States would be content having saved the world from Saddam Hussein's quest for weapons...

North Bay, Ont. — Prime Minister Jean Chrétien dropped hints of an early retirement last night, telling his Liberal colleagues he is counting the weeks, not the months, until he leaves, and vowing to be the third Canadian Prime Minister whose successor wins the next election. As Paul Martin, his heir apparent, mouthed "Bravo," Mr. Chrétien said he will do "everything to make sure that the new leader will have the best conditions possible to win a fourth consecutive Liberal majority government." Relaxed, and at times speaking with a catch in his throat, Mr. Chrétien addressed his Liberal caucus for...

<p>In his quiet fashion, Vaclav Havel, the playwright and political dissident who provided much of the moral force that helped bring down a Communist dictatorship without resort to arms, retired the other day after 13 years as president of Czechoslovakia and, since 1993, the Czech Republic. He leaves a legacy that conventional political figures should envy and emulate.</p>

EXIT AND REFORM THE EDITOR "I spoke to Fr … not so long ago, who considers that our bishops have lost the Faith. When a Cardinal can tell the boys at Downside Abbey that unity can be more important than truth, what hope is there?" 'Not much,' is the short answer to that rhetorical question posed in a recent letter from a priest. As Cardinal Ratzinger observed during his celebrated interview with Vittorio Messori: "Where Protestants and Catholics live side by side, the latter are more in danger of adopting the positions of the former." Add to that truism the...
