HILLARY CLINTON (D), ‘08 PRESIDENTIAL HOPEFUL: I found my own voice. I felt like we all spoke from our hearts and I‘m so gratified that you responded. Now, together let‘s give America the kind of comeback that New Hampshire has just given me. (END VIDEO CLIP) CARLSON: Just how did Hillary Clinton come back? It could have been the Saturday night debate. Maybe it was choking up on the trail on Monday. Maybe Bill Clinton‘s angry defense did the trick. Women over 40 voted for her, registered Democrats voted for her. People who value experience in their candidates voted for her by a huge margin over Barack Obama. But how did it all come together in the face of poll numbers that convinced her own campaign that Hillary Clinton would lose by a double digit margin. Where does the Democratic race go from here? In a moment, former Clinton White House special counsel Lanny Davis joins us with his view.
Power-sipping TV a hit at CES
At CNET, we take HDTV power consumption seriously, which helps explain our excitement when Philips announced its Eco TV. The 42-inch, 1080p resolution, flat-panel LCD, model 42PFL5603D (due in March, $1,399 MSRP), is packed with power-saving features. .
SYRIA AND SYRIAN-CONTROLLED LEBANON
The book blamed Hafez al-Asad, then minister of defense, for the military defeat at the hands of Israeli forces in June 1967. After Brayez's sentence expired in August 1985, his family lost contact with him and his whereabouts were unknown for several years. In November 1991, Middle East Watch received reports that he was being held in the general wing of al-Mezze prison in Damascus.
New political prisoners in 1991 include four members of the Workers Revolutionary Party and twenty-nine from the Arab Socialist Union Party (ASU). They were arrested even though the parties themselves are legal, apparently because they had distributed leaflets criticizing the Baath Party's monopoly of power. Among the ASU members arrested were Ahmed al-Khatib, a lawyer; his son, Tha'ir; and Najib al-Derdem, also a jurist.
