PRESIDENTIALELECTION
McCain focuses on the war for campaign vitality
ROCKY RIVER, Ohio — John McCain said Monday that to win the White House he must convince a war-weary country that U.S. policy in Iraq is succeeding. If he can't, "then I lose. I lose," the Republican said. He quickly backed off that remark.
"Let me not put it that stark," the likely GOP nominee told reporters on his campaign bus. "Let me just put it this way: Americans
will judge my candidacy first and foremost on how they believe I can lead the county both from our economy and for national security. Obviously, Iraq will play a role in their Judgment of my ability to handle national security."
"If I may, I'd like to retract 'I'll lose.' But I don't think there's any doubt that how they judge Iraq will have a direct relation to their judgment of me, my support of the surge," McCain added. "Clearly, I am tied to it to a large degree."
The five-year-old Iraq conflict already is emerging as a fault line in the general election, with the
While most Republicans still back the war, many Independents and Democrats don't. That presents a significant challenge for McCain and an opportunity for either Barack Obama or Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Baby boomer creates travel Web site for people her age
"I happen to be a baby boomer and I felt like the fun side of me wasn't being catered to and marketed to," said Web site founder Liz Dahl, 59, in a phone interview from her office in Louisville. "I was getting ads for medication and hearing aids and no one was appealing to my fun side."
LOUISVILLE, Ky., — A new travel Web site has been launched for baby boomers at www.boomeropa.com.
So she created Boomeropia as an information site, listing interesting trips and tours in 30 categories, from adventure to pet travel to
beaches and bed-and-breakfasts.
Other categories include cruises, culinary travel, golf, fishing and "glamping," which means glamorous camping or camping trips where the tour operator does all the hard work for you, with comfortable tents and catered meals. Click on "botanical tours" and you'll read about a trip to Kazakhstan in search of alpine plants; click on "volunteer" for details on an American Hiking Society trip to work in a park in the Chilean Patagonia.
There is also a forum section where readers can post photos and share their thoughts.
ENTERTAINMENT 80th Academy Awards receive low Nielsen rating
KANSANCLASSIFIEDS
NEW YORK — The Oscars are a ratings duel.
Nielsen said Monday that overnight ratings are also 21 percent lower than last year.
Nielsen Media Research said preliminary ratings for the 80th annual Academy Awards were 14 per cent lower than the least-watched ceremony ever, which was in 2003. Only 33 million viewers tuned in for that show.
