Bush were scheduled to make official their detente, the Texas Governor placed an ice-breaking phone call to the Arizona Senator's mountain retreat. He reached Jack McCain. Dad's outside, said the teenager. Could the Republican nominee call back later? No big deal. Back to Game Boy. Jack promptly forgot about the call and never told his father.

...hasn't changed," Buckwheat said. "A writer named Philip Nobile has collected dozens of examples of Imus or his half-witted sidekicks saying obnoxious things about women, gays, Jews and minorities. Like calling Howard Kurtz of the Washington Post, a 'boner-nosed, beanie-wearing Jew boy.' Or the New York Knicks 'chest-thumping pimps.' Or saying that people shouldn't get upset about serial gay killer Andrew Cunanan because 'he's just whacking off freaks!'

Then Lazio, with New York Republicans from Gov. George Pataki to former rival Rep. Peter King closing ranks behind him, went about raising his political Q rating in the usual...

These developments have some Beltway types doing a double take. Can Bush, only recently anointed as the golden boy of the religious right, afford to cozy up to this wing of his party? The answer, so far, is a qualified yes. In fact, some polls now show Bush with as much as a 10-point lead over Vice President Al Gore, thanks in large part to the Texas governor's skillful disengagement from the orbit of Pat Robertson and the Christian Coalition, forces he was pressed into befriending by the insurgency of primary opponent John McCain.
