...Rove's strategy has worked just fine so far. On Saturday Bush received 7,418 votes to Steve Forbes' 4,921. Elizabeth Dole placed a surprisingly strong third, with 3,410, denying to Forbes what he wanted most from Iowa: the perception that the G.O.P. contest had come down to a two-man race. There's a woman in it now. But if Bush goes on to take the G.O.P. nomination and the White House next year, Rove, who at 48 is playing a major role in a presidential campaign for the first time in his life, will be anointed...

Wilkos would have been right in between Charles Sumner and Preston Brooks in 1856, when Sumner took a wicked cane beating that left him unconscious...
...granddaughters of a President, they are already monitored by the Secret Service, which has asked the campaign to skimp on the details of how the pair spent the summer. That's fine with the potential First Twins. "They're not big into campaigning," says spokeswoman MINDI TUCKER. While STEVE FORBES has enlisted his four daughters, Bush, who worked for his father's campaigns, is following the Clinton model used to shield Chelsea. It's one area in which he would like to emulate the man he wants to succeed...
