...company of choice for Pamela Harriman. (In fact, White House counsel Lloyd Cutler signed on as her adviser after the suit was filed.) President Clinton once called her "the first lady of the Democratic Party." Indeed, her house and her parties were a haven for Democratic loyalists during the Reagan-Bush epoch.

...committee has signed up 20 state and 10 regional coordinators and begun raising money. But the general has had no contact with the group, and in fact has never declared himself a Republican -- or a Democrat. He helped to shape Republican foreign and military policy during the Reagan and Bush administrations, but friends say his views on civil rights and social issues may be too Democratic to reconcile with a right-leaning G.O.P...
