Among anti-Goldwaterites, there is a feeling that the G.O.P. is now in the hands of a thoroughgoing Bourbon. "For all his warmth as a person," says Wall Street Lawyer Lyman Tondel Jr., a Republican, "he has an appalling lack of understanding of the problems of most people, particularly the man who is hit by forces beyond his control." Some worry that beneath his attractive exterior and easygoing manner is a deep, though untapped, vein of authoritarianism.

...green color scheme adds to the cool beauty of the glass-walled room, from whence the diner can look out over a flower-sprinkled moat. For an appetizer, the soft clam pan roast is hard to beat; it is best followed by tasty mignons of tenderloin flared in bourbon or stuffed broiled lobster and wilted dandelion greens with bacon.
