...Gary Bauer and Geraldine Ferraro, have dubbed him a bigot. "I looked it up," Ventura says of the word. "It's someone who's intolerable [Jesse's Yogi Berraism] of any other religion but their own. I'm the opposite. I'm tolerant of all religions... I don't care if someone wants to go out there and worship the bark on a tree." The ex-wrestler growls, "Wait 'til I ever see them face to face."

...proof of preschool's greater appeal, consider that while Bill Clinton's most famous domestic policy gaffe is his botched stab at health care reform, his tenfold expansion of Head Start's budget has been virtually unopposed. That's political currency for Gore, who's made an art form of denouncing the President's failures and taking credit for his successes. For Bradley, who's been playing catch-up since the campaign season began, Gore's proposal just widens the gap. Where's Willis Reed when he needs...
