...irony is that in the post-cold war era, governing is a fox's job, and campaigning a hedgehog's profession. Dole has proved himself as a fox, but he can't get anyone to see him as a hedgehog. What Dole could but won't say is that Clinton is no different from him: a fox in hedgehog's clothing...
...Lear left the stage at the end of the cold war. The old white male patriarchy has gone to the dog track. We live in the squabbling-siblings era of Goneril and Regan (cut the defense budget, the old man doesn't need that many knights anyway).

...breakfast with HILLARY CLINTON, Washington Post doyenne KATHARINE GRAHAM and about 120 others.

President Clinton is traveling the campaign trail [Nation, Sept. 16] at taxpayer expense, carrying a bag full of tax-dollar promises with a hole in the bottom while making believe he's the Democratic Santa Claus. Bob Dole is wearing a Republican Santa suit and hauling around a similar bag of promises. But neither of these impostors can deliver his presents without a working majority of his elves in control of Congress after the Nov. 5 election. It's time the electorate faced up to the fact that...
