That gentle unorthodoxy has confounded many political seers who have insisted that being Senate leader hinders more than helps a candidate, as concluded by Howard Baker, who stepped down. The dean of all handicappers, Richard Nixon, was heard to mutter that Dole might have more savvy than any of the other contenders. Indeed, Dole went up to New Jersey to see Nixon, whose political acuity Dole respects, and found the old campaigner with candidate lists and vote projections. He advised Dole to do his job in the Senate and stay away from the candidate "cattle shows." Dole loved...
...here and mutter about it though," said Peggy, whose five-month-old, Jason, rode his mother's hip as easy as any other good Western lad ever sat a pinto. Jason is the only male connected with the paper, which draws its management and work pool from the 24-member Penistaja Homemaker's Extension Club.

Those who have a different set of expectations for the company's works will not feel obliged to hedge their enthusiasm with a patronizing "Not bad for a Disney...
...backbiting got more vicious in the final days of the presidential campaign, when the Bush camp began to mutter that the CIA was trying to undermine the President's re-election. The evidence was circumstantial at best. But many Republicans nonetheless came to believe the agency was rooting for Senator John Kerry when it cleared for publication a book, Imperial Hubris, written anonymously by Michael Scheuer, a CIA analyst and former chief of the bin Laden unit, that accused the Administration of botching the war on terrorism. Members of Tenet's staff didn't think much of Scheuer--they regarded...
