...swam the 50-m in 1:03.97, doubling the second worst time, had received money to be interviewed by Australian papers. And Moussambani had already turned down an ad campaign. "Speedo offered to sponsor me, but I didn't like the contract," he said, eating baked Alaska as the waitress came over with a stack of menus to be signed. "Michael Johnson was here two days ago, and we didn't ask for his autograph," she said. After signing, the team stopped for some photo ops with diners, then headed back to the Olympic Village.

Another Bush adviser allowed that Gore can get some of the waitress moms, but Bush has a solid lock on their husbands. Bush's huge lead among working-class men, he argues, is the chief reason the Governor is ahead in states where Gore should be ahead by now: Arkansas, Louisiana, Wisconsin, Missouri and West Virginia--all states Clinton won twice. "Part of Gore...
