The article focuses on politician Paul Wellstone and the White House. Wellstone decided to abandon a self-imposed two-term limit on his Senate service at least in part because of his determination to block U.S. President George W. Bush's conservative agenda wears the target with pride. His race in the election is being interpreted as a measure of the potency of progressive politics in the United States. Wellstone says the strategy is to reach across lines of class and community to focus on issues that are universal--like education.
