While it's possible that Kennedy's lack of experience may actually have worked in his favor, since his recent training would have freshly equipped him to deal with such emergencies, some of his other actions are open to question. Traveling from Fairfield to Martha's Vineyard, Mass., pilots follow one of two flight paths. The easier, safer route hugs the southern coast of Connecticut, keeping the plane within the comforting sight of land most of the time.

The White House knows it, the Senate knows it, and judging by the polls ?- which still favor Clinton and his mantra of "first things first" (Medicare and education) - the public senses it too. Would most Americans like a 10 percent across-the-board tax cut? Sure they would. But they believe Larry Summers and Alan Greenspan and even Clinton when they say 10 percent is too much...
