...help me," Albright says. "I wear makeup." She brought from her U.N. office her pictures and awards, her Harlem Globetrotters jersey and signed basketball. She took down the formal portraits of Dean Acheson and Cyrus Vance, symbols of the soft-spoken diplomacy Christopher cherished. In their place she hung portraits of Thomas Jefferson, General George Marshall and her mentor, the late Senator Edmund Muskie...

What, besides overnight stays in the Lincoln Bedroom, did the large donors get for their money? Last week, speaking at the first news conference of his second term, Clinton asserted, "I never made a decision for anybody because they were contributors of mine."
