...long as Clinton's diet-substance strategy is working so well, he's not likely to hustle to appropriate Lamm's message, unless anyone seems to be buying it. And selling it may take more time than Lamm has. In June he spoke to rave reviews at California's Reform Party state convention. "It was one of those magic first dates," he says, "where pretty soon you are holding hands. We really clicked." So a Democratic pollster asked state voters whom they would favor in a four-way contest: Clinton, Dole, Ralph Nader (from the Green Party) or Lamm. Lamm...

And a fried egg, over easy. And a couple of griddle cakes, each the size of a catcher's mitt. All of which will jiggle around the middle of her breakfast companion, who's having the same. But in the white-hot furnace that drives Janet Evans, it will burn to ash well before her three hours of afternoon tank time are finished and her daily weight...
