After London, the Royal Court show and One for the Road will travel to New York City with two other Gate productions, the double...
...Instead of choosing between the Frist or Nickles plan, the White House and Lott settled on a hodgepodge of amendments grafted from both plans that Republicans threw at the Democratic bill to pick it apart. Lott also tried for a while to string out debate on the measure to give attack ads aired by HMOs and health insurance companies time to soften up the Dems. The TV attack ads and GOP rhetoric zeroed in on a provision in the Kennedy-McCain-Edwards bill that allowed employers to be sued if they were directly involved in medical decisions for their workers...
