Just a few days before, TIME had reported that the Gore campaign was paying gender theorist Naomi Wolf $15,000 a month to provide the Vice President with everything from wardrobe tips to big-picture theories of the race--specifically, that Gore must challenge Clinton if he was to become the "alpha male" in the presidential contest.

Karenna, for instance, pushed to bring in Naomi Wolf, the feminist writer who advocates, among other things, teaching children the value of masturbation. Wolf's $15,000-a-month salary and memos pushing Gore to be an "alpha male" left the candidate withered by weeks of derisive press just as Bill Bradley started to make his big break...
