...refuses to highlight the Administration's litany of achievements. Democrats, both inside and outside campaign circles, say they are perplexed by his decision not to make a move that should be as natural as King Arthur's taking Excalibur from the stone. "I mean, can we let it soak in that we've had the best economy in the history of the world for two minutes before having to say we're not satisfied?" says one Democratic strategist, sighing. By late last week it was an exasperated Clinton, not Gore, who finally touted the past eight years. "One thing...

Well, whatever; if a little fudging allows NBC to soak a few more dollars out of Visa for its annoying ads, more power to them. But NBC has hardly solved its problem. The factors dragging down its ratings - tape delays, too many up-close-and- personals, results being reported by an increasingly fast media (online and off) - will still be there (in the case of online media, tenfold) when NBC returns to Athens in 2004.
