But for now, and from this crabby perspective, it looks like junk. Junk passing as bold popular art. Violent entertainment, from WWF to Howard Stern to the sleazier rap music, is not adult.

"He's got to cave in and respond to all of Bush's tax-cut talk," says Howard Richards, 68, a retired real estate broker who turned up last week at a Gore tax event in Florida. Another reason is that Gore knows Democrats argue against tax cuts at their peril. Gore's side "spent 20 years getting hammered about the head by Republicans for being the party...
