...photo op with fire fighters and a "listening session with seniors." (Lieberman has said he will not run if Gore does, but made it clear that he expects his former running mate to make up his mind by the end of the year.) The weekend before, House minority leader Dick Gephardt, who represents St. Louis, made his third visit to New Hampshire in less than a year, ostensibly to honor a Super Bowl bet he had made with his counterpart in the New Hampshire legislature. And not long before that, Vietnam veteran John Kerry brought Democrats in Concord...
...Traveling with Dick Cheney through the Middle East was like being in the eye of a hurricane: chaos loomed in the distance, but overhead the skies were clear. At least the Vice President and his aides kept insisting they were. Day after day, Cheney doggedly maintained that the explosion of Israeli-Palestinian violence wasn't interfering with the goal of his mission: persuading Arab allies that the next target in the war on terror should be Iraq. But like the rumble of far-off thunder, the evidence suggested otherwise. Everywhere he went--Jordan, Egypt, Yemen, Oman, Saudi Arabia--Cheney encountered...
...just partisan zeal that sold tickets. Vice President Dick Cheney and his energy task force had been rewriting the industry's rules-and his proposals were unveiled just five days before the dinner. Three G.O.P. fund raisers told TIME that the R.N.C. consciously targeted the energy sector. "Whoever has the hot issue is going to be the most responsive," one money man says.

...GLOBE-TROTTING Move over, Moby Dick. In April, two books will be coming out about a bloody moment in maritime history: the bloody mutiny on the whaleship Globe. Norton, publisher of Thomas Heffernan's "Mutiny on the Globe: The Fatal Voyage of Samuel Comstock," writes, "When Comstock - a headstrong 20-year-old - signed on to the whaleship Globe in 1822, his sea chest contained an unusual secret stash - a diverse collection of seeds, tools, medical supplies and weapons. With these neatly packed items, Comstock intended to carry out a strange career goal: to become king of his own South Seas...
Violence and diplomacy often go together in the Israeli-Palestinian relationship. But the problem facing U.S. General Anthony Zinni's Middle East mediation efforts is the extent to which violence has become a brutal form of negotiation. Vice President Dick Cheney joined Zinni in Israel Monday in an urgent effort to arrange a cease-fire, and Israel's military withdrawal overnight from recently reoccupied Palestinian areas suggested the mission was making progress. But while the U.S. and Israel might be content with simply avoiding a repeat of the bloodbath of the past two weeks, Yasser Arafat needs more - a resumption...
