...Ickes. Two weeks later, there was another round of peace talks, this time in the office of Bill Curry, a moderate Democrat hired by the President in February. (Curry joined Morris and Gore in urging Clinton to engage Republicans in the deficit-cutting debate.) "He's a very smart guy," Stephanopoulos says of Morris, "and a good friend of the President."
