...halls and bowers of Capitol Hill. Her revelations forced the House to consider tightening up its procedures so that the only affairs taxpayers' money is spent on are those of state. The result, adopted last week by the controlling Democrats, might fittingly be called the Liz Ray Reform Kit...
Figuring that they cannot top Carter anyhow, right-wing purists argue that they might as well nominate their ideological favorite, Reagan. At the Missouri convention, Governor Kit Bond repeatedly cited a poll showing Ford running twelve points better than Reagan in the state; delegates were unmoved because they knew that the same numbers indicated that both men would lose to Carter.
