...vague way the pros and cons of such a move with campaign chief Scott Reed. Then on April 23, the day of a desultory telephone conference call to the G.O.P.'s "Team 100" fund raisers, Dole sat in the sun outside his office with novelist and Wall Street Journal contributor Mark Helprin, whose writings on Dole had made an impression on the Senator. Helprin broached the idea of Dole's quitting everything--and realized that Dole was a step ahead of him. "When I raised it," Helprin recalls, "he was looking out over the Mall. His eye seemed...
Later, the President let a contributor get close enough to deliver an air kiss, and unleashed a force way beyond his control. After that, everyone expected to be kissed--especially those within the velvet rope who had paid $50,000 to $250,000 for the privilege.

CHARLES KRAUTHAMMER, another Pulitzer-prizewinning contributor, strayed from his role as an Essayist seven weeks ago to write a beguiling piece for us about a chess match between Garry Kasparov and a computer. This week, in his Viewpoint column, Krauthammer, who has a medical degree and is a board-certified psychiatrist, addresses a subject on which he's even more qualified: judicial rulings on the right to die. "Medical ethics is the one area of medicine I still follow," says Krauthammer, who warns against allowing doctors to kill terminally ill patients. "Once these lines are crossed, the other side...
