...between Clinton and New York City's imperious mayor, Rudolph Giuliani--a notion that makes the state's Democrats as giddy as 12-year-olds at an 'N Sync show. According to a TIME/CNN poll of New York voters last week, if the election were held now, Hillary would whip Giuliani (52% to 43%), and she would be in a dead heat with New York Governor George Pataki...

The question is whether DeLay correctly indicated how long he served as chairman of Albo Pest Control. DeLay maintains the allegations against him are nothing more than unsubstantiated dirt by his political enemies. "But if it turns out that...
