“It will be done,” added Reid, smiling serenely. But while congressional leaders are influential and all, the chairman of the Democratic National Committee–i.e., the organization in charge of this loony process–has the potential to change (or, um, end) the game. And now it appears as if that’s what Howard Dean (the aforementioned DNC boss) wants to do. First, in an interview yesterday with the Associated Press’s Nedra Pickler, Dean–who said he’s worried that “there’ll be some nasty fights if it goes to convention, and people will walk out”–confessed that he has been “talking to a fairly significant number of, by and large, nonaligned people about how we might resolve this....

The top-seeded German looked to be cruising initially in this second round clash as she stormed through the opening set, breaking her unseeded opponent twice.

Once again, it was the higher-ranked player who had the early advantage and swerved for the match at 5-3.

Riding on contrasting half centuries from middle order batsmen Jermaine Blackwood (63) and Roston Chase (70 not out), the hosts recovered from the early jolts, which they received on Tuesday.

“The Dante Club” has received generous early reviews, as well as considerable advertising support from its publisher, so it has a decent shot at becoming a best seller along the lines of “The Alienist,” assuming we all ignore the fact that, for all its earnestness and scholarly smarts, it’s just incredibly silly.
