flap, McConnell's one of the worst of the corporate toolies. Mr. Soft Money himself. He'll give 'em the best loopholes that money can buy. After all, as Trent Lott says, isn't that just the way they do business around there ? Chao gets a break until she shows what she's got.

I think the Cheney strategy is to make rightist changes on so many different areas at once that many will get through. Of course you should expect Ms. Chao to be a team player in this effort. TP

Bush's campaign problems & Mrs. Mitch McConnell or Elaine Chao are mentioned in article in NYTimes. Please note that John Huang, the convicted Clinton- Gore fund-raiser, repeatedly took the Fifth Amendment in November when questioned in court about his alleged fiscal ties to Republicans, including Senator Mitch McConnell, Here are the excerpts: After the Ball Is Over January 20, 2001 From The New York Times By FRANK RICH " Change the tone? As Clinton-Gore raised $33 million largely from their corporate masters for their first inaugural, so Bush-Cheney have solicited $35 million from, among others, the securities firms that want to get their hands on your privatized Social Security retirement accounts and the pharmaceutical companies that want to protect the prices of prescription drugs. And already foreign money is making its entrance — in the form of a legal but unsavory $100,000 contribution from the deputy prime minister of Lebanon, channeled through his son. Now comes the news — reported by the columnist Robert Novak — that John Huang, the convicted Clinton- Gore fund-raiser, repeatedly took the Fifth Amendment in November when questioned in court about his alleged fiscal ties to Republicans, including Senator Mitch McConnell, the No. 1 opponent of the John McCain crusade for campaign finance reform that Mr. Bush has yet to credibly embrace. (Mr. McConnell is also the husband of Mr. Bush's latest labor secretary-designate, Elaine Chao.)" From The New York Times.com
