Aides admit she has a social worker's soft side that often gets the better of her, as it did in her handling of the Elian Gonzalez case. And congressional Republicans regard her by-the-book reading of laws as a knee-jerk reluctance to prosecute - especially when questions are raised about her bosses...

Halliburton, for example, lobbied mightily to normalize trade with China, a position that put Cheney at odds with many conservative Christians and a sizable minority of Republicans who regard Beijing as a national-security threat. The powerful American Israel Public Affairs Committee disagrees with his views on U.S. investment in Iran. Says A.I.P.A.C. spokesman Ken Bricker: "Now is absolutely not the time to lift sanctions and appear to condone Tehran's totally unacceptable behavior." Many Cuban Americans oppose...
