...overcome these image problems, Barak has imported James Carville, Bill Clinton's own image magician, to turbo-charge his campaign. Indeed, a friend of mine in Israel remarked just yesterday that Barak appears so slick in his ads that "he could be Bill Clinton." So Clintonesque is one of his ads about how Netanyahu mismanaged the economy that you can almost hear Barak say "Bibi, it's the economy, stupid!" And why shouldn't Barak play the campaign game American style? The photogenic Benjamin Netanyahu is a master image-maker who himself retains an American campaign guru, Arthur Finkelstein. Politics...
...than we assume, and even our college experiences are not the same. The only thing we clearly share is our age. But that means that, if all goes well, we will grow old together, you and I. My memories are bound up with yours. The years ahead are neither mine nor yours, but ours...
...seems touchingly eager for approval, anxious about how the article on her will turn out. (Rest assured, I say, the pictures are good.)

It could have been worse. Some $270 million in supports for oil, gas and steel companies had to be yanked at the last minute, for fear that Clinton would have declared "enough" and vetoed...
...TIME White House correspondent Jay Branegan says he still could. "Most of the additions are fine by him, like the hurricane relief to Central America and the FEMA funds for Oklahoma," he says. But Washington senator Slade Gorton's gold-mine rider directly overturns an administration decision to block the mine, and Clinton still has the political capital on Kosovo to demand a leaner, cleaner bill. "It's a game of chicken, but the Republicans already look bad on Kosovo," Branegan says. "Clinton could probably score some points by accusing Congress of slowing down the bill with pork, and they...
