...political grab bag! At last Friday's Presidential Campaign Conference over at the Kennedy School, supporters of former Secretary of Education Lamar Alexander were distributing a video dubbed "Lamar!"

In a TIME/CNN poll of Republican voters nationwide last week, Dole led with 39%, followed by Gramm with 11%, Buchanan with 8% and Wilson...
