the washington post says barbara comstock is "airing the year's most creatively misleading attack ads." calling john foust a sexist. "quite an accomplishment, considering her conservative record on social issues." barbara comstock "backed a measure intended to outlaw abortion." and "would have required women seeking abortions to undergo transvaginal ultrasounds." barbara comstock "the sort of inflexible politician that has led congress to paralysis."

throughout their seven-game series. pitching in the inning for them after pitching the complete game for them just three days before them as they were unhittable with that .25e.r.a. in that world series. >> and staying away with them every inning that i was hoping that he would not go, just starting to be a little tired. and that there is no way. that they would have taken them out as they would have told us about that and to get on their horse. >> and it worked out pretty darn good. check out these numbers from bumgardner allowing one run, two wins, one save. in a 7-game series. and they would have three world series titles to their credit. only 25 years old. pretty impressive. time now to announce the winner of the high school game of the week poll as you chose that rivalry showdown. as they would look upset to the 7-1 loudoun valley hiking. finally ght,tonithey learned a lesson the hard way

in that utah playoff game. all they had to do was to run out. and to get down. but no that ball would fumble, they pick it up and they run it back. beating them by three with three seconds to go. that's all they had to do was to kneel down at the end or go out of bounds. >> i remember asking my dad about that. does the game just stop? and he would say no that the play finishes. it's pretty elementary. poor guy as this game is over. the cbs evening news is
