...race-track approach offers several advantages over competing MX basing proposals. For one thing, it would be relatively simple for the Soviets to verify U.S. compliance with the SALT accords because the shelter roofs could all be pulled back simultaneously to allow Soviet satellites to count the MXs. For another, not much land would be needed, and all of it already belongs to the Bureau of Land Management. Only the 2.5 acres surrounding each shelter would be cordoned...
Dolan's approach is to start early and hit hard on the incumbent's record. An N.C.P.A.C. affiliate in Idaho began TV and radio commercials in June.

Attend only required events, spend the rest of your time partying with a carefully selected group of equally cool people. Be polite, and willing to joke around, but don't hesitate to avoid obviously dull people and crowded parties with a lot of insecure types. Don't let anything bother you. If you stay cool, you can actually enjoy the week, because you won't be frazzled or unnerved too fast. Pace yourself. You've got all week, and then four...
