...Corporate Campaigns, Inc., "the corporate campaign strategy is designed to bring pressure upon management from a variety of sources--not just the workers themselves. It is a simple matter of confronting power with power--and that has brought back into the labor movement a recognition that unions can transform a group of workers into a powerful political and economic force...
...particles and the forces that bind them all together depends on accelerators -- and the bigger the better. The reason: the best way to produce particles for study is to create intense bursts of energy. Einstein's discovery that matter and energy are equivalent guarantees that such bursts will spontaneously transform themselves into particles of matter. The SSC would make these extremely concentrated energy bursts by using its magnets to guide protons, moving at nearly 186,000 miles per second, around the enormous ring in opposite directions. Then they would be forced to collide. The major difference between...
...decisive victory. His mini-landslide seemed an only slightly diluted version of the two previous Republican triumphs, just as Bush's philosophy seemed an only slightly diluted version of Ronald Reagan's.

It was also an expression of general contentment with the nation's current patina of prosperity and peace and with the Republican Party, which has ruled the White House for 16 of the past 20 years...

White's description of the 1960 race, as one reads it now, seems an endearing period piece. One cannot conceive of writing such prose now, about the 1988 campaign. White invented the form. He absorbed politics and hymned it in an act of reportage and imagination that was a variation on Walt Whitman. White's descriptions of the 1960 race are bardic, Homeric. Political bosses are "chieftains." The "clashes" between Kennedy...
