Bush is sunny, ingenuous; he assumes good faith. His assumption of good feeling has a way of spreading it. That has been his history, in Texas, and in baseball, and in business. Gore, on the other hand, is a rather strange individual. He has seemed in the campaign like a rapper on MTV, all strut and no strength.

It hasn't worked, and now he's busting the company into four parts...

After taking a few pictures, you remove the card and insert it into a slot on the right-hand side of the polished wood frame. In a few seconds, your pictures are displayed in full color on the 4-in. by 5-in. screen. The frame holds up to 40 images and cycles through them slide-show style.
