What
Are They Fighting For?
The protests at the Republican convention promise to be
some of the most spectacular counterculture events since
the sixties, with a whole new arsenal of activist weapons
and a professionalized class of organizers. Great theater,
absolutely. Effective politics? That’s another question.

New

Local pols have been jumping on the front-runner's bandwagon
faster than you can say "double-digit lead."
So what if they once backed Dean? And Clark? (Greg Sargent,
March 8, 2004)
Leading
Man
With a series of wins from Maine to Tennessee, John
Kerry all but locked up the Democratic nomination last
week. But even as the famously serious senator began
to smile a little, a daunting reality set in. The fight
with George W. Bush has only just begun. (Chris Smith,

Who
Should Be Kerry's Running Mate?

Cash
and Kerry
The city's wealthy Kerry backers have a message for
undecided donors: Fund the
front-runner—now—or lose to Bush later. (Greg
Sargent, February 16, 2004)
Hurry,
Kerry
Former front-runner John Kerry has a hero's war record,
a Senate seat, all the family wealth one could hope
for. He even looks like a president. But to become one,
he's got to get past Howard Dean. And time is running
out. (Meryl Gordon, November 23,
2003)

Whether he's running for president of America--or

just got a lot bigger. "People used to say I was an ambulance
chaser. I said, Fool, I am the ambulance. Now I'm the
national ambulance." (Mark Jacobson, September 15, 2003) |

Al Sharpton is trying to push his way onto

Jackson. Why won't Jackson step aside? "His ego's bigger

New Yorkers are missing a lively campaign

For Democrats, the
race for the White House starts in posh Manhattan townhouses
and co-ops, as New York’s money class takes the measure
of the candidates and places its bets. (Meryl Gordon,

Recently, John Edwards stopped being just
a senator from North Carolina and started being a presidential
candidate. Not that he can admit it yet. But in powwows
all over New York, the charismatic young Democrat is testing
the waters -- and the party's loyalty to Al Gore. (Ned

The

Howard Dean, who grew
up in Manhattan on the Upper East Side and went to Yale,
is running an anti-yuppie campaign as much as an antiwar
campaign. It’s not all that dissimilar, as it happens,
to the anti-yuppie campaign Yale and Harvard-M.B.A. alum
George Bush ran the last time around.(Michael Wolff, November

The five-time governor of the Ben & Jerry's
