After sitting out the final three quarters Sunday at Heinz Field, LaMarr Woodley is hopeful he will play Thursday night against the Cleveland Browns. The Steelers' outside linebacker, however, said his hamstring will be an issue the rest of the season, necessitating some sort of platoon with Jason Worilds.
JOINT LEGISLATION He does well in straw polls. Now he may do well in grass polls, too. Sure to add an interesting dimension to the White House derby on Thursday: presidential hopeful Rep. Ron Paul, Texas Republican, joins Rep.

His eggs were scrambled, his toast was multigrain, but GOP presidential hopeful Mitt Romney, campaigning Thursday morning at a diner in the Michigan county where he was born, found himself on the hot seat from auto workers who picketed his visit and slammed him for a flip-flop on the industry bailout. About 40 members of the UAW, carrying signs that read "Mitt Is Wrong" and "Michigan Needs Jobs," walked a picket-line-like protest of his visit to Livonia, Mich., a Republican stronghold outside of Detroit. Mr. Romney, whose father, George, was a beloved governor who turned around the failing American Motors Co. in the mid-1950s, returned to the campaign trail in his home state where he won the 2008 GOP primary.

WASHINGTON - Republican presidential hopeful Rick Perry tried Thursday to convince the country he was in on the joke after his disastrous debate performance while even his supporters worried aloud about the damage to his already hobbling campaign. Perry didn't try to sugarcoat the fallout from his minute-long stammer that crystalized concerns that he is not up for the job.
