White House press secretary Jay Carney told reporters earlier this month that although Obama "appreciates" his relationship with Garcetti,"there won’t be a formal endorsement."But the Clinton-Obama divisions are not limited to just the principals.

They're the most adept red-meat throwers. Palin and Trump are experienced demagogues and liars. Cruz is new to the game,but what with his recent prove-you-stopped-beating-your-wife attacks on Chuck Hagel and on the allegedly communist-infiltrated Harvard Law School,he's risen up the ranks quickly.Stop and think. Suppose you were organizing this conference. Your party just got pretty well thumped in a presidential election that a year ago you thought you had a strong chance of winning. In defeat's wake there is inevitable talk of rebranding,specifically of the need to soften the image a bit. So what do you do? You throw out the gays,you deny an invitation to the one Republican on the current scene (Chris Christie) who has an ounce of potential crossover appeal,a fact that is obvious to anyone who isn't an uncontrolled ideologue,and in their stead,this is what you choose to highlight? Two raging (and aging) blowhards,and the man bidding to be America's next Joseph McCarthy? But why am I surprised? If by chance the person who introduces Cruz says,"Ladies and gentlemen,may I present to you America's next Joe McCarthy," the applause will be tumultuous.

But Jara – folk-singer,theatre director and cultural ambassador of the Allende government – remains arguably the best-known victim and a potent symbol of a nation still struggling to find peace with itself more than two decades since the return of democracy.It is his final poem – smuggled out from the stadium where he was incarcerated and killed – that adorns the entrance to Santiago's Museum of Memory. It is images of his face on banners carried by a new generation of student protesters and it is his music that will be played on radio station and in folk clubs as a nation remembers the tumult of the coup.Jara was born in 1932 into a poor rural family,where he learned Chilean folk traditions from his mother.
The narrowness of Zidan’s win over the Muslim Brotherhood-supported candidate,Mohammed Harari,the interim minister for local government,suggests he also could face difficulties in finding nominees who can attract the backing of a majority of lawmakers. Zidan won 93 of the 179 votes cast in the General National Congress. Abushugar also only managed a small majority over his challenger,Dr. Mahmoud Jibril,and lasted just 25 days as prime minister-elect.Abushugar’s advisers acknowledge a lack of political sophistication in his handling of the cabinet nomination process. "He picked technocrats like himself instead of accepting that he had to horse-trade and come up with names that would appeal to the political parties," says an adviser.
