Rush is C-SPAN, Comedy Central and the Nostalgia network all in one: 100% politics and 100% show biz. And in that he's like nearly everyone else in public life. The "issues" in the Republican campaign are largely Hard Copy topics like adultery, dope smoking, draft dodging and politically correct itineraries for student vacations. On The McLaughlin Group, the Studs of weekend round-table shows, pundits pretend to be pit bulls.

...PAINTED WITH VIVID stripes and a rising sun, plies the drearier streets of New Haven, Conn., drawing eager throngs like some dark version of the Good Humor truck. Four times a week, the "dope fiends," as they call themselves, line up to enter the vehicle. They identify themselves to city workers by their code names ("Carol Burnett," "Streetcat," "Wizard") and, in exchange for used needles, receive survival kits: bottles of bleach, bottles of water, clean needles, and condoms.
