OPINION: Romney struggles to explain himself
WASHINGTON — When the Democratic National Committee circulates an ad attacking Mitt Romney even before the Iowa caucuses — and long before his presidential nomination is clear — one can be fairly certain that Romney is considered the greatest threat to a second Obama term.

OPINION: In Herman Cain’s case, claims are in eye of beholder
WASHINGTON — If you were Herman Cain, what would you do?

OPINION: Healing power of music hardly a new, unique idea
WASHINGTON — On perfectly beautiful days such as these, it is impossible to conceive of conflict.
