The Nation leads mags race
As the nation awaits the formal start of the presidential race on 
Labor Day, The Nation has picked up the most support among political 
magazines.
Circulation of the liberal journal, a weekly voice of opposition to 
George W. Bush, has risen 71% during his presidency so that it's now 
the top seller in the field of opinion mags.
"Four years of an Al Gore administration would have been a 
dramatically positive thing for circulation," said National Review 
president Thomas (Dusty) Rhodes, echoing the view that a political 
mag thrives when the opposition holds power.
