...luck holds out and he doesn't squander his opportunity, Clinton could walk away with the big prize--a deal that reflects his essential beliefs and robs Dole of his premier campaign issue. House Republican leaders are contemplating a last-chance offer that could attract bipartisan support: cutting $155 billion in Medicare, providing targeted tax cuts worth $180 billion, fattening the pool of discretionary spending a bit to woo liberals, and then getting in line behind the Senate's more moderate welfare-reform plan.
