...does not anticipate much trouble from California Congressman Paul McCloskey, who is seeking liberal Republican votes in New Hampshire. But Ashbrook could prove to be more of a threat. Though upset over many of the President's policies, the conservative wing of the party has so far been loyal. Ashbrook gives them another option. He claims not to be interested in winning the presidency, just in "reforming" the President. "We have seen him lead the triumphant charge of the Red Chinese into the United Nations," said Ashbrook.

Even though Bulgaria and Turkey are members of rival military alignments, they are cooperating on several important issues.
