...crows. "I'm not conceding anything to McCain in New Hampshire, but when he gets to Michigan on Feb. 22, he runs into a state where I've got an organization that has won for me three times, where the legislature is overwhelmingly for Bush, where 65% of county chairmen are already lined up. On Veteran's Day, in bellwether Macomb County, 250 leaders came out from every city and township to sign up with Bush." Engler has so wrapped up the players that McCain did not name a state chair until mid-November, and he's a rookie...
...after nearly four months off for family time and recreation, Rubin has re-emerged for another high-wattage star turn. Smiling alongside Sanford Weill and John Reed, the co-chairmen of Citigroup, the 61-year-old financier confirmed that he would help them run the nation's largest financial conglomerate (1998 assets: $669 billion).

Sinai doesn't call the Internet a "wild card" for nothing; much about its effects on the economy have yet to be played out. "Frankly, we don't know enough about it at this point," he says. "How important is the Internet to the economy? All I can say is it's huge...
...deep wallets all dove in, not just Wilson guys but Lungren backers and old Reaganites and factions that usually try to have nothing to do with one another. Bush refused to rank them, stack the chairmen atop the vice chairmen; instead he made them all "pioneers," committed to raising $100,000 each for his campaign. "He did to California what Tito did to Yugoslavia," said Wayne Berman, a top G.O.P. fund raiser in Washington. "He pulled all the factions together and said it is better to live together than die alone...
