...Bush nominee Linda Chavez learned Tuesday and Clinton nominees Zoe Baird and Kimba Wood learned back in 1993, many Americans appear to feel there's something singularly distressing about a woman who's not totally in control of household events and expenditures. It's the household after all, we murmur. Shouldn't she have been spending more time at home? That way she wouldn't have had to hire illegal immigrants to do her job in the first place...
...handling its columnists and their sins, real or imagined, reminds me of the vicious incompetence of the novice Clinton White House in dealing with its candidates for attorney general. First, there was Zoe Baird, with her untaxed-nanny problem. The Clintons showed her the door and brought in Judge Kimba Wood for an audition.

It meant scrapping most of his proposed investments and the middle-class tax cut. It meant proposing new taxes, which outraged Republicans, and spending cuts, which troubled some Democrats. It meant braving the warnings of deficit hawks that higher taxes and less spending would lead to stagnation or recession, and following the advice of Republican Alan Greenspan, chairman of the Federal Reserve Board, who insisted that a credible deficit-reduction...
