...went better than either side expected. Clinton let Bush have the lone bedroom on the Air Force plane--a gesture Bush appreciated. Although Clinton is a well-known raconteur on overseas flights, it turned out that Bush was the charmer on that trip, introducing everyone all around, taking a shine to a couple of Clinton's aides and generally making folks feel at ease. Clinton was more subdued, still recovering from his quadruple-bypass operation five months before, but not so much that he could resist staying up at night playing Oh Hell! with Jean Becker, Bush's chief...
