...took a leave of absence to join Wallace. Although customarily dour, LeMay has looked more lugubrious than ever as a campaigner. The role has brought him new discomforts and criticism. In Columbus last week, students at his old high school demanded that his portrait be removed from a hallway. Why had the general interrupted his California retirement? "The whole country is drifting away from the principles that made America great," he says. In the past add: LeMay "the country had to use unorthodox methods to get out of the hole, and I think we're in that situation...
