...close, Hart seems warmer, more natural than he was in 1984. While he still ticks away with an intensity that is sometimes scary, he no longer seems to regard a smile and a chuckle as a sign of superficiality. He will occasionally mention his two children, his parents, his upbringing in the strict Church of the Nazarene, things he shied away from before. Hart realizes that this time around, he must be as adept in talking about the messenger as the message...
During the 1984 campaign, Hart was pricked by questions about discrepancies in accounts of his age (he was born in 1936, not 1937 as one official resume said) and the shortening of his name from Hartpence. The points grew in significance when Hart faltered in explaining them. His aides recently persuaded him to write an autobiographical article, "One Man's Luck," that would answer those lingering questions and dispel the sense that he was detached from his own roots. The article, which has not been published, reveals much about Hart's boyhood and his early hopes and dreams but offers...
Arms control brings passion to Hart's voice like no other issue. Frank Connaughton, the sympathetic protagonist in his new novel, is a rangy, rugged arms-control negotiator from Montana who risks his career and reputation to get an agreement in Geneva. In his farewell speech to the Senate, Hart offered his own arms-control policy: a 50% reduction in U.S. and Soviet nuclear arsenals, a nuclear test ban and a moratorium on the development of cruise missiles. His foreign policy views are almost the opposite of Ronald Reagan's. The underlying problem in Central America, Hart argues, is poverty...
...Senate Select Committee probing Iranscam is determined to avoid such unseemliness. To shield its investigation from political gossip as well as foreign intelligence services, the committee will move into a new $350,000 suite in the Hart Office Building that is designed to be leakproof. Staff members will talk on bug-proof telephones, type on hacker-proof word processors and sign out research material from a "secure documents room." The offices will be protected by code-locked doors staffed around the clock by armed guards. Exterior walls will be implanted with electronic sensors to detect intruders...
...Gary Hart beginning to fade unless the tops of his ears appear from under his 1960s mod hairdo. Chuck Robb, Richard Gephardt and Bill Bradley neatly trimmed for maximum political appeal, rising steadily. Sam Nunn consigned to the campaign basement unless the sides and back of his shag are thinned. George Bush ("really great") and Bob Dole ("styled very well") streamlined and sailing smartly into the political winds. Pete du Pont, Al Haig and Don Rumsfeld rightly barbered to take the course should the others falter. Jack Kemp, splendidly styled for football, left in the locker room instead...
