...book Pat Buchanan tells us what he would have done if he'd been President when Nazi Germany was waging war on England and France: Nothing. Adolf Hitler, he insists, was somewhat misunderstood. The Nazis only wanted to move east into Russia and Eastern Europe--which posed no threat to U.S. interests--until we got them all riled up. The Holocaust? A bad thing, certainly, but not the kind of problem that should drag a nation into...
...fact, it's the Reform Party, and Pat Buchanan's apparent impending defection to it, that has Forbes in attack-dog mode. He's spending the week trawling California for stray Buchanan voters. His bait: With Buchanan out of the way, he is the most prominent conservative candidate left in the GOP primary. California is a particularly tough sell -- voters rejected a school vouchers program, a key Forbes plank, a few years ago, and his anti-abortion stance doesn't play well there. Still, with Buchanan nearly out of the picture, Forbes may be the best alternative for Republican protest...
...approaching my third year here, I realized that I pretty much knew what I was getting into--had the concepts of sectioning and sourcebooks, TFs and tutorials down pat. Nothing was new.

The key to a successful third party is igniting the interest of those who think but do not vote, not pandering to those who vote without thinking...
...does the Reform party get? A candidate who, undeniably, has a shot at mobilizing not only far-right Republicans with his social conservatism but also labor-union Democrats with his insistent immigrant-bashing and mind-boggling trade protectionism. Those within the Reform ranks who support a Buchanan candidacy tout Pat as the man to take the party to "the next level." But to Ventura, Buchanan is a "retread," and to Weicker, Pitchfork Pat's "next level" is the end of the line. "Look at their track record," Weicker told CNN on Monday, referring to the far-right Buchanan ilk. "They...
