The New Republic

New Life: [Stephanie
Simon, Los
Angeles Times]: "The political arm of the National Right to Life
Committee is scheduled to endorse Thompson this morning."

Still Strong: [Juliet
Eilperin, The
Washington Post]: "Aides to former New York mayor Rudolph W. Giuliani worked
yesterday to bat down the perception that his bid for the Republican
presidential nomination had suffered after Friday's indictment of Bernard B. Kerik,
his longtime ally and former business partner."

Overtime: [Christne
Hauser, The
New York Times]: "Mr. Edwards and his staff members are exceeding
his rivals in terrain and time, having rolled through all 99 counties and spent
nearly 60 days in Iowa
alone since late December, when he announced his candidacy."

All Business: [Michael
Levenson, The
Boston Globe]: "Now, just seven weeks before the first votes are
cast, Romney's disciplined approach stands as one of the biggest contrasts with
his main rivals for the Republican nomination, all of whom are campaigning more
as charismatic figures than as methodical politicians seeking to lock up
various constituencies."

Fear Mongering: [Jason
Pulliam, The
DesMoines Register]: "Republican presidential candidate Tom
Tancredo on Monday announced the release of a new television ad that links lax
border security to future terrorist attacks on the United States."
