...held a 2-to-1 lead over Brown with both groups. Clinton stands to benefit among Jews, who constitute about 30% of the Democratic primary vote, from Brown's offer to Jackson to be his running mate (an offer Jackson has coyly avoided accepting thus far). Brown felt the heat when he addressed the Jewish Community Relations Council of New York two days after Clinton had received a warm reception from the group. The mere mention of Jackson, who offended Jews by referring to New York as "Hymietown" in 1984, triggered boos, hisses and outbursts from the audience. "This...

...know things are bad when folks at the White House joke about the good old days under Sununu. SAM SKINNER is taking some heat for the current drift at Bush Central.

Many of the most damaging comments from Administration insiders of late...

Maybe WHITE MEN CAN'T JUMP, but in all other respects he's a fully qualified player -- except possibly in the brains department. But smart Sidney Deane (Wesley Snipes) has enough wit for both...

...country heat has made it easier for some other voices, too, to break through. There is Clint Black, who is less showy than Brooks but pithier, kind of like a whistle-clean Merle Haggard. His 1989 hit single, A Better Man, was a true heartrender, a no-nonsense male confessional, and suggests that his new album, due in September, will be worth the wait. There are the Kentucky Headhunters, described by their rhythm guitarist Richard Young as "the scariest things in country music." The KenHeads blend whimsy, old-time picking and some refried hippie riffs with the dynamism...
