(Newser) - The gloves are off in the Republican presidential race, with the McCain and Giuliani campaigns forming a tacit alliance to take down Mitt Romney, the Politico observes.

Button Down Meets Blue Collar in Iowa

Obama courts votes before Hillary arrives for caucus battle

Associated Press Associated Press Oct 13, 07 7:10 PM CDT
(Newser) - Advantage, Obama: He's already winning blue collar hearts in Iowa before Hillary shows up for her caucus drive. He can also talk agriculture and education with ease because Iowa's troubles resemble Illinois'. And vets he meets there resemble his grandad, a WWII soldier from Kansas. Yet the big city lawmaker still needs reminders of Iowa life: "Hogs matter to Iowans!" is scrawled across an article in his office. More »

on Iran

'with no conditions' 

Associated Press Associated Press Oct 12, 07 11:33 AM CDT
(Newser) - Hillary Clinton told a voter in an apple orchard yesterday that she would negotiate with Iran “with no conditions”—the very statement for which she took Barack Obama to the woodshed in July, calling him "naive." The difference? Her campaign tells the AP she doesn't agree with Obama that the US "should precommit to meeting directly with Ahmadinejad.” More »
