...midweek, Dole recruited a small army of surrogates to take up cudgels against Forbes and became smoother on the trail. His ads got tougher, his speeches softer. A new Dole ad in New Hampshire features the state's popular, youthful Governor Steve Merrill, clad in green parka and walking across a snow-covered suburban yard, accusing Forbes of proposing a plan that would rob citizens of their cherished property-tax deduction.

Last week Lamar Alexander visited a teen drug-treatment center in Hampton, New Hampshire, and talked poignantly about the need for neighborhood charity. A campaign ad for Senator Dick Lugar touts the fact that he fought against turning the federal school-lunch program into block grants.

...wrongful death suit that some of them put their objections in writing. But Simpson would not be deflected. After complex negotiations with BET, it was agreed that the network could ask whatever it wished, but Simpson didn't have to answer--and BET sold him $200,000 worth of ad time to hawk the tape...
