...political guru Karl Rove, press attache Karen Hughes and operations chief Joe Allbaugh--if he can get him to come. (Allbaugh, who isn't keen to move to D.C., joked to TIME recently that he was "looking for lottery numbers so I can tell the Governor to 'Go to hell.'") Bush's alter ego, Don Evans, a friend going back 25 years, will probably be Commerce Secretary. And there was talk last week of recruiting Dallas Cowboy great and Annapolis grad Roger Staubach to be Secretary of the Navy...

...million a year in 1976; shock when one-dimensional Jose Canseco became the game's salary king at $4.7 million in 1990; disbelief when pitcher Kevin Brown signed a seven-year, $105 million deal in '98.

In this year's G.O.P. primary, the Arizona Senator--likening himself to Luke Skywalker attacking the Death Star--flew hell-for-leather against his party's anointed leader, George W.
