...Buchanan keeps on torturing the Dole team, it has itself to blame. Reed and Pat's sister Bay Buchanan were in near cahoots for months trying to force Phil Gramm out of the race. In an astonishing string of secret deals, Reed released dozens of pro-Dole votes in the Alaska caucuses to ensure that Buchanan beat Forbes there; he gave his O.K. when top Louisiana Republicans asked about backing Buchanan in the caucus fight with Gramm; and he handed over thousands of names and addresses to Buchanan in Louisiana (and 12,000 names in Iowa) to help him strike...
...biggest fight in the White House is over how to handle the state of the economy. The division runs through the heart of the party. Massachusetts Senator Edward Kennedy went to the ramparts last month and picked up the bugle that Buchanan has been blowing in Dole's ear all along. Kennedy talked about wage stagnation and soaring corporate profits, and then he drove in the knife to Clinton's "values" crusade.

True, Patrick Buchanan deserves some credit for recognizing exactly what it means to employees to be expendable gaskets in America's re-engineering. But Adams, the creator of a sack-shaped, ever threatened corporate loser named Dilbert, was there first. The result is that Dilbert, which already runs in more than 800 newspapers with a readership of some 60 million people, is still the fastest-growing comic strip in the country...
PITCHFORK PAT BUCHANAN AND HIS DEVOTEES CLAIM WHITE RACISM IS NO longer a problem. He should visit the Black Belt of Alabama, where African-American churches are being torched, a black judge's home has been shotgunned, and people generally feel under siege. From this vantage, it might not seem so wise to keep waving the Confederate flag and pretending there is no difference between singing Dixie and We Shall Overcome...
