Yeah. I think one of the things is, is that - I talked to the Bad Plus(ph) recently. They came into town. See, I started a radio program here in Denver called "The Jazz Odyssey." To be honest, what I do is I play your kind of music, and I play music of the Bad Plus. I'll even play stuff of Jon Hassell and even get me ... |
In some circumstances, they can. And in some experiments that were reported in the 1980s - I think the experiments that you're referring to might have been the ones carried out by a scientist named Robin Baker, who was trying to ascertain whether or not human beings - like homing pigeons and sea turtles and a variety o... |
Mr. Terkel, I recently saw Martin Scorsese's film about Bob Dylan. I don't know if you saw it, but it made a huge impression on me. I saw Bob Dylan in a way that I never had before. He was interviewed now in his present life, and I found the way he spoke and the things he was saying to be so--I do... |
And I've talked to women who said, well, of course, you know, that's why would they be happy? Those are the jobs we're happy to escape now.
So it's not like, you know, trading apples for apples here. It's really kind of a switching of roles, and nobody knows where it's going. And then meanwhile, you have different cat... |
It has changed very substantially. About half the students graduating from law school are women. The same is true in the medical profession. But there are still a lot - there still is significant disproportionality if you look at the big partners in law firms.
There's relatively - a fewer number of those are women comp... |
Hi, good morning. I think this situation is going to be much harder, much more difficult. Israel lost great chance, as well as the U.S. to make peace prior to this incident. The public is extremely angry how the people in Gaza were totally destroyed a couple of years ago. I think also - well, this is fact, the United S... |
Well, that almost is the biggest story of the day or at least the most closely watched race of the day. One, it's the only one where a Democrat was running against the Republican. Everything else was primaries. But two, this is one of the races, even though it was a two-to-one Democratic majority, it's culturally conse... |
If you have questions about what Vietnam today is like or why, we'd like to hear from you. And if you've been there recently or if you have family there, what do you think of the way it's changing? Our number here in Washington is 800-989-8255, and our e-mail address is talk@npr.org.
Our first guest is Dana Sachs. She ... |
We wish the generals were gone, he says, but there's nothing we can really do about it. They are strong and we are afraid. They don't care about the people at all, all they care about, he says, is staying in power.
The military's decision to go ahead with its May 10th referendum on the new constitution in areas not aff... |
Deep in our solar system, a new era of space exploration is unfolding. Beneath the thick ice of Europa, in the vapor plumes on Enceladus, and within the methane lakes of Titan, astrobiologists are on the hunt for extraterrestrial life. We’ve honed in on these three moons because each is an ‘ocean world,’ an environment... |
Earlier on his trip, Mike Pompeo was in Cairo, where he said in a speech that the U.S. is committed to defeating ISIS. The very next day, the Pentagon announced it was beginning a withdrawal of U.S. troops from Syria, troops that had been fighting ISIS. This is just the latest in a string of mixed messages coming from ... |
I think they have shown, first of all, that it is possible to do a lot, so long as that opportunity is provided; so long as equal opportunity is there in the workplace; so long as there is a commitment to enforcing civil rights laws to ensure that people are paid on an equal basis with whites; to make sure that they ar... |
There's a big question about whether it's a good idea. I mean, the previous caller talked about Wal-Mart. You think of GM or Procter & Gamble, these huge companies probably need large banks. The other big issue is it's a big world out there. I think London would love it if we broke up our banks because then anyone who ... |
Okay, the two scenarios would be different because the person with a little bit of money - and say look, I need, you know, I need to make some money. I only have a little bit, and I heard it takes money to make money so the little - the first one's a little of bit, it's like, you know, how do you start? You can start i... |
I have - I had an editor who told me, she said - she would say, this book ends awfully abruptly. I said, I know, but it's over. And she'd say, well, could you let it just kind of slide along for a while, you know, add a few pages and see if you can just keep things going just for a bit? And so I would add three pages a... |
So I'm just going to have to let you guys go. Thank you so much. And we've been talking with the controversial former Los Angeles Superior Court judge Kevin Ross, who blogs at "Three Brothers and a Sister." He also hosts the Kevin Ross show on BlogTalkRadio. He was here with me at our NPR West studios. Brandon Whitney ... |
Almost no impact whatsoever. Look, Barack Obama has been in the state numerous times. He just appointed a state director. He has broad support in the state. I think, again, this race is totally wide-open despite all of the early polls out there and what you're hearing from the pundits. Look, these candidates, especiall... |
Well, it's certainly not a problem throughout Oakland, but there are certain impacted neighborhoods that are dealing with having an inordinate amount of corner stores that sell processed packaged foods low in nutrients, and lots of alcohol and cigarettes, and that don't have grocery stores. West Oakland, California, is... |
Well, in fact, that's one of the reasons why I guess I'm a skeptic. Maybe I'm ultrasensitive, but, as you know, I've spent a lot of time over the last year trying to argue that there is a difference between science and religion, and we should not change the way we teach science in schools. And so I... |
Recently, alarm bells went off when one of Maliki's coalition partners in the Iraqi National Alliance turned against the prime minister. Shiite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr threatened to join a new coalition with Iraqiya and the Kurds and force a vote of no confidence in the prime minister. Baghdad analyst Ahmad al-Abyadh sa... |
Nothing he had ever painted had given him such a feeling of pride and accomplishment. It lasted all day, through the plucking, the gutting, the tedious picking of pinfeathers, and into the last light as he sat with his aching back, pulling primary feathers from the wing tips with a pair of pliers. At last, he laid the ... |
That is exactly what we are going to see. He will tweak it. He'll change it, you know, from day to day, from week to week, depending on where things are in Congress at any given moment or depending on what he's hearing from the opposition that he feels he needs to counter.
He was pretty quiet on this issue in August an... |
I think that A, Pelosi will pass the bill, I think that they're going to put in more cost controls that these blue dog Democrats want. The problem is people love to talk about cost controls, but they don't actually want to ask anything of anyone. And I think that if the minute you say well, we want to take away this se... |
So Steve, we'll get to know that family. Now, let me take you to another family in Maryland, right outside Washington, D.C. There's a 24-year-old named Nicholas. He's living at home. He was exploring this career in the arts. But when his grandfather - who's in his 80s - started really suffering from dementia and moved ... |
And I'm Steve Inskeep. And those, by the way, are our real names. We clarify that as we begin a report about news stories written under fake names.
Newspapers in Chicago, Houston and San Francisco are among those that acknowledge they published dozens of items under fake bylines, as they're called. The public radio pro... |
Right. Well, I think the whole argument about the women's vote was never just about reproductive rights. Equal pay is a big part of it. And so are the economic issues because women voters historically have shown a real concern for, you know, pocketbook issues, education issues and safety net issues. What's really strik... |
And this is of course the largest use of land in the U.S. - that is, cow pasture - 654 million acres, plus the feed for the livestock, which is 127.4 million acres. And then of course there is the paper that the Happy Meal box is made out of. That is the second largest use of land in the U.S. - unprotected forest. That... |
Yeah, well to be honest with you, I would probably think you are a person who needs to go to the emergency department. You know, we divide people in three basic categories, five total. Those that are really acutely sick and injured need to go straight to the back. There's the ones where it's kind of more minor, and you... |
The world's greatest players have something in common. As children they considered the soccer ball a wonderful toy and they wanted to play with it whenever they could. That's because their early exposure to soccer was pure play. The Peles, Meradonas and Renaldo's developed their skills without adults looking over their... |
When I was a kid, I was, like many of you in this room, very much fascinated by Star Wars, and what fascinated me the most is this notion of the Force, this energy that connects all people and all objects and allows you to feel people that you can't even see. And I remember many nights, I would be sitting at home, just... |
Well, I think it looks very bad. For example, Sweden, that has had no activity whatever in Iraq, has taken 9,000 refugees in 2006. Why is it that a country that has been neutral with respect to this has done so much more than we have? And we're a multi-cultural country. I live in California. My goodness, if you ever wa... |
The caller from San Antonio, for instance, mentioned that it took about a year and a half before they saw any significant improvement with -in his friend. So while it really is - it would have been great if we can see all the changes within a week or two. That is not the reality.
Our - many of our patients take very sm... |
Well, the prosecution slimmed their case down. They received a bunch of criticism after the mistrial that the case was too convoluted, that it was too long. It took six months to try. They were criticized for focusing on all the salacious details of what the defendants spent their money on, you k... |
Well, it's going to be difficult because of the cost of so many things that the - our president is calling for. We're going to have to make a lot of painful political decisions. But we are confident that - we wish really we could persuade the Republicans. But we are confident that we'll have enough votes in the House t... |
Disgusted with the poverty, the crime, the corruption that categorized Newark, Corey Booker made headlines four years ago when he tried to take on the Sharpe James regime in Newark and lost. Booker was just inaugurated as mayor. Rather than let the first campaign dissuade him, he ran again. And this time not only did h... |
When I read that the country was left 70 percent female, and when I learned that women were working together hand in hand, Hutu and Tutsi, to do things they had never done in their lives, to learn to read, to build schools for their children, to start businesses, I was very impressed. And when I went and I meet the sur... |
I've said the same thing. It's not at all damaging. This is reality. As I said in Iraq, when I was the commander there, you dont end an industrial strength insurgency by killing or capturing all the bad guys. You have to kill, capture, or turn the bad guys, and that means reintegration and reconciliation. In the case o... |
Yeah, and that's something - I'm glad you used the transcend race (laughter) carefully or cautiously. This is something I've been giving a lot of thought to over the last few weeks as I've been hearing from people in response to the podcast. And what's at once inspiring about Oprah's story is also I think something tha... |
Although Buck kept losing his appeals in the Texas courts, by 2000, an appeal based on Quijano's similar testimony in another case made it to the Supreme Court. While the case was pending, then-Texas Attorney General John Cornyn formally admitted that the state had denied the defendant his constitutional right to be se... |
To an unusual degree among the great philosophers, G W F Hegel’s influence has waxed and waned. At his death in 1831, he was the reigning voice in German philosophy. His followers, however, soon split into opposed camps: the Right Hegelians, a conservative and religious group, and the Left Hegelians, a socially radical... |
I just had a comment that, you know, former Senator Mitchell says that it was kind of playing politics, but I kind of disagree because I can see this as a very detrimental visit based on a policy we're trying to establish in Syria; and not to mention the fact that Ms. Pelosi went over and offered almost a deal to Syria... |
McCain is actually kind of the flipside of this. McCain is very specific on the spending he'll cut. He's the only candidate willing to take on what many see as one of the biggest boondoggles that Congress involves itself in, which is the farm subsidies. But he doesn't get too excited about tax cuts. McCain voted agains... |
Well, the pair of twos are a little bit more ominous than that. I think as Bob and Joe have pointed out, the North Koreans have a nuclear weapons program. Whether or not they have nuclear weapons is conjecture, but they certainly and most probably have produced plutonium, and whether we want that ... |
You're listening to Talk of the Nation: Science Friday. I'm Ira Flatow. Can you heard of the bacterio-clock? Yeah, can't get one for the holidays. How about bactricity maybe a baccum-cleaner? Well, you haven't heard of that? Well, they have one thing in common. They are all synthetic biology projects that whiz k... |
Well, they're going to let it actually fail, Robert. I mean, that's the point of having the government step in and take over, and we have laws on the books for how you unwind a bank. The thing is you do do euthanasia, and that's what we're talking about here. I mean, Mr. Shelby, Senator Shelby is exaggerating to say we... |
This is TALK OF THE NATION. I'm Neal Conan in Washington. While Syria is the crisis of the moment in the Middle East, Iran looms as an even more difficult challenge in the months ahead. And these two issues are not unconnected. Iran remains the most important ally of President Assad in Damascus, and the survival of his... |
Yes, hello. Thank you for taking my call. I had spent a good period of time in a number of different mental institutions as a patient. And when you were speaking earlier about your own willpower to get better, I found that it was extremely difficult to be an advocate for yourself because of the number of medications th... |
...no such party, no third party candidate, except for when the Republicans, when the Whigs died and Republicans came in, has actually won the presidency.
However, I would say that Bloomberg - if he really wants to commit the resources, he's going to basically look at, he's going to look at the blue states and he's goi... |
Yes, this is one of the great mysteries of - in the barbecue world there's something call the stall. When you cook a large piece of meat like a pork shoulder or a beef brisket, and you watch the temperature go up, you'll see the temperature rise and rise and rise, and then at a certain point it stalls out, it stops ris... |
Scott, this may be very hard to believe, but behind me in the hotel pool are more than 100 Lebanese people, families sunbathing and swimming. They're trying to live as normal a life as possible here. And they have a remarkable capability to compartmentalize the threats and dangers facing them. I guess it's a holdover f... |
Well, you know, yes and no. When you can perceive the drought coming, getting rid of cattle before everybody else is is somewhat of an advantage. We're a ranch management company, so we - our company itself doesn't own the cattle or the land. We manage those assets for the owners. And uh - so it was definitely a tough ... |
Yeah, it's - I think it differs country by country. The research that I think you're referring to was conducted by a psychologist in The Netherlands, who had a group of young men from Spain, Germany and the Netherlands. He posed a scenario to them. He said, what if somebody rudely knocked you off your feet and he turns... |
Well, I'm not the world's greatest marketer. You know, even though I've had successful films, and I've had some experience. But I was - when I initially undertook the movie, you know, this is made on a smaller budget. It was a labor of love. People didn't get their normal salaries and that sort of thing. It really was ... |
Yeah, I learned that bottled water in itself isn't the worst thing in the world. I mean, after I looked at it, and I looked at this carbon footprint, I looked at the plastics issue, the waste, the litter, the privatization. I mean the - a huge issue of whether companies can come in, and take water away and make money o... |
And you do write that President Trump and other politicians have sold the American people and perhaps the British people on a much dimmer view of the state of things. You write Trump convinced voters that our country is going to hell. Despite the industrial output record, Trump convinced voters that we don't make thing... |
And the other part that was mentioned about turnout, you know, this is, in our minds, a pretty high-profile race. We're paying a lot of attention to it. We're talking about. But there's - the turnout may be, in terms of dollars spent per vote, is maybe very low because a lot of Republicans are not going to vote for San... |
People who probably won't be shown live during the regular broadcast are the nominees and winners for best film editing, sound mixing, production design, sound editing, makeup and hairstyling. They're known in Hollywood as the below-the-line people, the technical crew who work on film after film year after year and dri... |
So you mentioned Hurricane Rita that devastated Texas years ago. Also, I mean, there are these inevitable comparisons - and we should be careful with them - but there are still comparisons being drawn to Hurricane Katrina for a lot of reasons, right? It was a devastating storm on the Gulf. So many people displaced - so... |
Traditional election year issues like gas prices, the economy, even healthcare are not dominating factors in this race. The Iraq War is. And that's why the Connecticut race is being closely watched by strategists in both parties. They're trying to determine how important the war will be for voters in November and in 20... |
I noted at the beginning of the show that you had commented that this was a disconnect between the Vatican and the American people. And I'd actually reverse that. I see it as a disconnect between my fellow American Catholics and the Vatican. A lot of my conversations with fellow Catholics indicate that they really don'... |
That's right. We've got a great family drama. I mean, it's better than "Dallas." It's - you've got a triptych of Kim Jong Un, the youngest son, 26 or 27 or 28, his sister, Kim Kyong Hui, who is Kim Jong Il's closest confidant. And those of us who've been watching North Korea for a long time are very interested in her. ... |
Last year at TED we aimed to try to clarify the overwhelming complexity and richness that we experience at the conference in a project called Big Viz. And the Big Viz is a collection of 650 sketches that were made by two visual artists. David Sibbet from The Grove, and Kevin Richards, from Autodesk, made 650 sketches t... |
Marcia Harris(ph) of San Francisco recalled a former employer in Indianapolis. I worked for an engineer named Ralph Pisswater. When I left to get another job, I worked up the nerve to ask him why he hadn't changed his name. He said, when I was kid my father wouldn't let me. And after I grew up I was damned if I would. ... |
I'm never going to say it's permanent. I think American soybean farmers spend a lot of time in countries in Asia, and especially in China, building those relationships. And those - the relationships that we have on the ground are going to be there. But the permanent negative side effects come in because China is now lo... |
I think we all have good reason to be worried. In terms of the educational expansion in China and India that he spoke of, don't forget that in the 1960s, China had no education. During the Cultural Revolution, schools were closed. But from the 1970s on, they've had a massive expansion of basic education. Nine years of ... |
I'm just really wondering, you know, what will it take for the U.N. to work faster in situations like this? And, you know, I think the biggest problem with the U.N. responding to this sort of a situation is it's sitting on bureaucracy. I mean, hundreds of people have died in Sudan already. There is no need to wait any ... |
In 1989, Cambridge University Press announced the publication of a new, three-volume book series: The Cambridge Translations of Medieval Philosophical Texts. The first volume – edited by Norman Kretzmann and Eleonore Stump, and dedicated to logic and the philosophy of language – contained 15 medieval texts, of which 15... |
I originally came in on evolution, but global warming is just as good because I think it presents the same types of problem, and I see the problem is we aren't properly educating students. You know, religion teaches stuff as fact, and unfortunately in science classes we do the same thing. I mean, ... |
Well, I think it's not a norm. You always have your occasions, once in a while, that somebody breaks the rules. And when they do that, obviously, and we find out about it, and we investigate - and we take action because, you know, first of all, it's designed for your safety and the safety of others, and of course you d... |
Yeah. And as Professor DeLong said, this problem is already happening, and there's more than a million Americans ages 75 years of age and older who are in the work force still; another 1.4 million who are ages 70 to 74; 2.7 million who are ages 65 to 69. So you're seeing, as the work force ages, a... |
Well, Rachel, the White House is alarmed at what they call the ongoing crisis at the border. What bugs Trump is that asylum officers let most applicants enter the U.S. and wait here for months or years for their day in immigration court. That's created a backlog of nearly a million cases today. And yet they point to th... |
Right. Well, President Moon has been very careful. His official line has been very firm and very clear, which is, this is not anything that's related to North Korea. If there is a drawdown in troops, it will be for different reasons. But you do have an adviser to the president saying in more than one occasion in the la... |
And, you know, it's hard to cram these extraordinary lives into sometimes just 45 seconds, and one of the people I had to do that for was Rosa Guy. And she was a leading author of young adult fiction, primarily in the 1970s and the late '60s and early '80s. And she's one of the people who really introduced a lot of ver... |
This is the main reason. Our transmitter was hit last October. It was the whole station. But we managed to fix everything except for the transmitter. Now we work with a rented transmitter, which is less powerful. And to be able to get advertisement and commercials, and to be able to get our projects funded, we need to ... |
Well, look, a law does not change people's dangerous behavior, enforcement does. So you have to have good laws. This study is flawed. And the reason it's flawed is because, last year, only 18 states had passed laws. This year, we're up to 30 states. We need good enforcement. We need to get law enforcement to do what th... |
But this approach risks turning radiation exposure into disease-of-the-week material. So directors came up with horror flicks with irradiated zombies; more serious pictures with grey landscapes that looked not at all like the lush greenery that's now around Chernobyl. Cautionary? Sure. But as news reports on Japan's cr... |
Well, Robert, if the G-20 leaders aren't sighing, this at least gives them a chance to catch their breath. President Obama described the election results as something that create a positive prospect that now Greece can form a government, and then work with the other countries in Europe on a plan to both address the lon... |
If it doesn't work anymore would be a good sign. If it starts dropping calls consistently, it's a good sign. But seriously, anytime really is a good time to start--if your habits change, if your lifestyle changes, if your income changes. Maybe it's time for you to take another look at the plan tha... |
Well, there are lots of reasons why the unemployment rates stay high. For one thing, sometimes a disabled person just can't afford to take a job. The new income they get might disqualify them from getting government-sponsored health insurance, and a job might not provide that health care that they need. The new health ... |
I think they would be willing to, but it seemed to me that they felt they didn't have to. The only one who bothered to hang around for the questioning of the witnesses was big John Cornyn from Texas and he mixed it up with them for 10 minutes or so, but he got out of there too. More of them were over at the joint sessi... |
Well, I think the main thing is just sort of lack of resources. It's not exactly that we don't know how to do better in terms of food safety, but nobody wants to pay for it. So, you know, the taxpayer or the Congress supposedly representing the taxpayers don't want to pay for it. The retailers, according to people we q... |
The virtual fence pilot project covers 28 miles of the border, south of Tucson. The GAO's Richard Stana detailed the problems before Congress yesterday. He explained that Boeing got nearly $21 million to design the pilot, which is called Project 28.
Mr. RICHARD M. STANA (Director, Homeland Security and Justice Issues, ... |
Many people have opinions about the effect of guns on society. Not many people have facts. There's a shortage of research, and a big reason is a provision in federal law sponsored by a man who now regrets it. He's an ex-congressman, Jay Dickey. His law ordered the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention never to fun... |
From all the people that I've talked to, they were saying it would be a decade at least. And, of course, it's always a question of how much money you want to put into this, and China is--you know, its economy has been booming, and the Chinese military is flush with cash for the first time in its mo... |
Well, you'd think it would, but you know, this is news that the market was already expecting. So, it's pretty much already baked into the numbers, as they say. Also, with the stimulus, it's not clear whether and how quickly things are going to help us claw out of this recession. And you know, let's be honest; there's l... |
I just, coincidentally, I'm an old reporter, and I covered that one, as well, which was in 1993 outside of Waco. And there's general parallels, but, as you can see from the outcome, the parallels ended very quickly. The authorities here acted a lot more astutely. Apparently, they didn't charge in, in a cattlecar full... |
From the studios of NPR West, this is Day to Day. I'm Alex Cohen. Coming up, a banking system in crisis, record-high unemployment levels - how should the new president deal with the troubled economy? We hear a few suggestions.
But first, today President Obama signed executive orders to close the Guantanamo Bay military... |
Well, at this point, Egypt will not even utter the word bomb. They continue to talk about an in-flight breakup. They say there was a sound on the cockpit voice recorder that they're analyzing. Meanwhile, other countries, as you said, are more comfortable with the idea that this was a bomb. They're saying that it looks ... |
Yes. That's "The Book of Air and Shadows," and if that appeals to people, they also might want look for "The Grave Tattoo" by Val McDermid, who usually writes these gritty Scottish crime novels, but this is a similar book based on the true facts that the great poet William Wordsworth and the famous mutineer Fletcher Ch... |
And just as troubling to some is the corporate response. Toy company RC2 has only issued a brief statement, saying its own thorough investigation identified the lead paint and it has implemented a corrective action plan. But RC2 officials refused interview requests, so we couldn't ask why it took nearly two and a half ... |
Well, I have a state of hypervigilance always, because I travel in the Middle East for work. So I'm always looking for packages without people attached to them. I went to an open-air event for Barack Obama in a public park, and I was just constantly surveilling the people around me and ready to immediately report or ac... |
We talk about close relationships, but we talk about a warm person, but that warm person is the same body temperature, 98.6 Fahrenheit, you know, as the rest of us, and not any warmer or colder. And yet we talk about people in these - with these physical terms so easily and fluently and we all know what each other mean... |
Well, I think that - yes and no. I mean, when I was growing up - and I grew up in Puerto Rico - and we have the same situation in, you know, in Puerto Rican culture, in Puerto Rican society, and in Latino culture, in general. And there is, you know, at least from my perspective, an oversexualization of girls at a very,... |
Reporters Tom Lasseter and Matthew Schofield traveled to 11 countries to interview 66 former detainees, a story that was no small challenge to report or to edit. Matthew Schofield, and McClatchy foreign editor, Roy Gutman, join us in just a moment to tell us how they got that story. Later in the hour, the painful price... |
I have done a lot of films where the characters do come to America or London or to the Western part. See, Indian fantasies are very real. I say this to everyone: Our fantasies are about earning a good living, having maybe a car - not two - getting an education for your kids. Our fantasies are not about getting the pres... |
He'd sit around in the pool halls and stuff and then, you know, he would talk about what a person looked like. And he was always telling the mamma jokes. And, you know, a guy could be angry with him one minute. By the time he finished the joke, you know, they were no longer angry with him. But b... |
We're going to start with reactions to the U.S. airstrikes on that Syrian air base two days ago. That was in response to a chemical weapons attack. It was the first time the U.S. has directly targeted Syrian President Bashar al-Assad's regime after years of civil war there. The Assad regime has repeatedly been accused ... |
From NPR News, this is ALL THING CONSIDERED. I'm Audie Cornish. If you enjoy travel, you might consider running for the White House. Just today, President Obama is visiting not one, not two, not three - but four states, and then flying home in time for bed. On his schedule: rallies in Florida, Virginia and Ohio; and a ... |
Malaysia Airlines has released the manifest of passengers who were on that plane that crashed in Eastern Ukraine. We know that many of them were bound for the world's largest AIDS conference in Australia. At the opening of the conference yesterday there was a moment of silence to remember those who had died. Diane Ande... |
He did, and - but it does raise the question - it's the question, of course, that Republicans have been asking about Mitt Romney for the last several months, and is he conservative enough, can they embrace him and - or are they still just looking? And right now it's just so tight in Florida.
Up till about a week ago, I... |
