1. Virtually all the big city newspapers, including those that conducted the "independent" recount that showed Bush won, endorsed Gore. washingtonpost.com [ed. note:] After your tooth and nail fight over Gore, you guys dropped him like a hot potato, and for good reason. He's proven himself to be a psycho case. When are you going to tell us about the true state of Kerry's mental health?

Your standard-issue political spouse would nod empathetically and let that statement lie. "But then," writes Leibovich, "Heinz begins to mimic Kerry having a Vietnam nightmare. 'Down! Down, down!' she yells, patting her hands down on her auburn hair. 'I haven't gotten slapped yet,' she says. 'But there were times when I thought I might get throttled.'
