 Ad-ing It All UpBy Eric Woolson on Wednesday, January 14, 2004.The news stories from Iowa are all about the Democratic presidential candidates swinging away at one another with the caucuses now just five days away. Howard Dean's new ad is critical of Rep. Dick Gephardt and Sens. John Edwards and John Kerry, calling them "Washington politicians" and criticizing their votes for the war with Iraq. So much for "a new style of politics." But, the chatter (whether accurate or not) this morning is that he's lined up the endorsement of former President Jimmy Carter and so he'll be in Georgia on the day before the caucuses rather than stumping in Iowa. If he really does have Carter's endorsement, it could just as easily wait until Tuesday or Wednesday so the candidate could stay in Iowa and make his final push for votes. But, that's an indication of confidence and a candidate running a national versus a one-state or regional campaign. In that respect, he does seem to be taking a page from the George W. Bush 2000 playbook with a goal of simply outlasting the others over the long haul. Why Not? (9am)By Laura Knoy on Wednesday, January 14, 2004.We've all had those "why not" ideas.

Laura's guests are authors Barry Nalebuff, Milton Steinbach Professor of Economics at Yale School of Management and Ian Ayres, William K. Townsend Professor of Law at Yale Law School. listen:
