Repeat after me: Alabama is undefeated
Repeat after me: Alabama is undefeated Remember the phrases Alabama players were asked to say about themselves this summer? “I am an excellent pass blocker. My technique is perfect.” Remember that class conducted by something called the Pacific Institute? Remember all that talk of `daily-affirmation’ and `self-actualization?’ “I’m quick off the ball and blow by…

Cool Singletary savors first victory
Cool Singletary savors first victory Mike Singletary decided, properly, to savor the moment, as many times as he could. After all, you win your first one only once, and after that, expectations come a’creepin’. So it was that, having finished supervising the 49ers’ 35-16 win over the perfectly horrifying St. Louis Rams, he walked slowly…

Musgrove lost to Barbour machine twice
The Hattiesburg American Editorial, 11/17/8 Democrat Ronnie Musgrove has run for two different statewide offices during the past five years, but he essentially lost the same campaign twice. Both times, Republicans pounded Musgrove on economic issues. And both times, Musgrove worked hard but did a weak job of defending his own record. In 2003, Musgrove…

Down, dirty judicial races: Elections reshape Supreme Court
The Clarion-Ledger Editorial, 11/16/8 What happened in Mississippi’s 2008 judicial elections happened all over the country. State elections for Supreme Court justices ended 2008 much as they began, punctuated by runaway spending, partisan pressure, angry accusations and costly, secretly-funded ads by third-party special interests that often drowned out the candidates. Four incumbent Mississippi Supreme Court…
