This season, USC needs more than the Rose Bowl Somebody has to tell him. Somebody has to walk up to Granddaddy, shake his sturdy hand, stare into his clear eyes, and tell him.

Longtime Senate spending leaders departing
The Associated Press, 11/20/8 They are old bulls both, legendary for fiercely lording over the Senate Appropriations Committee and funneling billions to their home states. But while Sens. Robert Byrd, D-W.Va., and Ted Stevens, R-Alaska, will no longer be leading the panel, the congressional habit of doling out earmarks is unlikely to change. If anything,…

Race played its usual role in Mississippi voting this month
The Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal Editorial, 11/20/8 The Nov. 4 election did more than result in the election of the first African-American president.
