...names and types such as the Gonzales-Brauns, the Harrison-Perreiras with their multilingual, multicultural children." Or the Arbach-Benzes. Lena and Denya Arbach-Benz, ages 5 and 9, live in Toulouse, France, with their Moroccan father Jamal Arbach, a historian, and their German mother Bettina Benz, an architect, who met in Toulouse. "It's a great chance for the girls to grow up with three cultures," says Arbach.

"Given a choice between doing the job and walking away, they will want to do the job," Rove tells TIME. "Given a choice between winning and losing, the American people will always pick winning." But the trouble for Bush is that, at the moment, lots of folks think he lacks a winning formula. In a TIME poll last month, 63% of those surveyed disapproved of the President's handling of the Iraq...
