...from 124 TIME correspondents who spent the night at key posts in all 50 states-and with each of the presidential and vice-presidential candidates until the hour of decision.

Germaine listens with a musician's delighted ear as he roars about frippery and fornication. She squirms with amusement at the thought that she is the Baal worshiper whom the pastor is denouncing. Men are no more than characters in a bedroom farce to Germaine, but Guymer is a character with a rumbling voice, a powerful body...
