...opener "Godeatgod" shows surprising restraint. It's obvious that great care was taken in constructing the songs on Holy Wood; guitars chugging over suggestive ambience often peel away to reveal acoustic strumming, fragile piano and yes, pulsing synths. Manson could be accused of borrowing a little too much from Trent Reznor, but at least the formula works...
...Gore was determined to keep counting until he got a result he liked. Gore's Democrats were, for the first time in a long campaign, united behind their leader last week, if only out of shared disgust at his enemies. Democrats kept finding new fuel for their indignation: when Trent Lott denounced the Florida Supreme Court's "unelected judges" for usurping the rights of the people by letting the recounts continue; when Florida Republicans threatened to name their own set of electors to send to the Electoral College and count on House Republican strongman Tom DeLay to make sure they...
Barring that, the Democrats want the Senate treated like community property. Minority leader Tom Daschle will probably meet with majority leader Trent Lott this week to demand that the two sides share power in the chamber. Even if Al Gore ends up President--which would mean Joe Lieberman's giving up his Senate seat, Connecticut's Republican Governor's appointing his replacement, and the G.O.P.'s getting a 51-49 majority--Democrats still want to be considered almost as equals, and Republicans realize they don't have room to run roughshod. "With this narrow margin in the Senate, there...
...Saturday was of a Republican ruling council, looking and sounding sincere but still very capable of scaring the other half of the country to death. Bush and Cheney pulled up tastefully patterned armchairs for House Speaker Denny Hastert, with a wrestling-coach glisten on his face, and Senate boss Trent Lott, looking odd in denim. (Tom DeLay had to wait in the shed until the TV crew left.) Bush was an affable host, sharing the soundbites near-equally, and when it was his turn, he talked at some length about legislation (especially about the tax cut as economic stimulus), mused...
When he first heard of this quirk in the swearing-in schedule several weeks ago, Senate Minority Leader Tom Daschle didn't pay it much attention. The current Senate Majority Leader, Trent Lott, would probably still run the place informally, since Republicans would be in the majority on Jan. 20, no matter which man became president, Daschle aides thought. If it's Dubya, Lieberman keeps his Senate seat and Dick Cheney casts tie-breaking votes to give Republicans control in the 50-50 chamber; if it's Al, Lieberman gives up his Senate seat and Lott controls with...
