...chewing over numbers. For Gingrich the House Speaker, there are all the usual budget totals and legislative head counts to think about. But for Gingrich the Party Strategist, there's just one big number: 35%. That's the high-end estimate of how many Republicans go for Pat Buchanan. What worries the G.O.P. leadership is that some of them might leave with him too should the party turn its back on them.

"It would be a lot better if we were all together," Dole said Friday, suggesting that both candidates should bow to reality and support him. "I think it's pretty clear I'm going to get the nomination," Dole told reporters, before leaving Florida for an afternoon campaign stop in Tennessee with former rival Lamar Alexander. Rejecting Dole's suggestion, Pat Buchanan told Louisiana supporters that he would "walk on in this battle as long as it takes...
