Les, there is a certain continuity in our China policy, in case you haven't noticed. Bush sent Secretary of State Baker to China real soon after Tianamen. (You know, Jim Baker, best fit for St. Ronbo's director, also best fit for getting St. Ronbo to sign that letter sandbagging Ollie North's Senate bid.) You might want to look up what master strategist Henry Kissinger hat to say about Tianamen square sometime, too. China policy always been driven by commercial interests, and the nuke secrets went to China sometime during the Reagan-Bush years. If heir apparent Junior makes it to the WH, I muchly doubt we'll see some massive reversal in our China policy.

Campaign finance is also a well known political cesspool. There's a popular Republican solution for this, of course. Ask Mitch McConnell, who had it in for temporary Republican poster Democrat Feingold before the last election.

Mike Wittenwyler, Feingold's campaign manager, speaks of a "vendetta" by McConnell against Feingold. A Republican lobbyist in Washington said confidently that "Mitch will spend what it takes in Wisconsin." And a Republican senator said McConnell had told him recently: "Don't worry about campaign reform. Feingold's going to be dead meat by Christmas."
