"It's very difficult for the Miami family to win legally, because they're arguing that the political situation in Cuba makes it wrong to send Elian back even if that is his father's wish, but the family perspective tends to trump the political perspective in U.S. courts. The case is certainly uncharted territory, and could well end up in the Supreme Court for a groundbreaking decision...

...outcome in November, harassing Gore but potentially torpedoing Bush. Oddly enough, Buchanan might never get the chance. The Reform Party functions like a flophouse for political gypsies and social outcasts, and no two members can agree on the time of day.
