...last count, Lazio had more than $3 million more in available "hard" funds than Clinton (the only type of money the campaigns are permitted to use for ads), and her aides say they expect the gap to broaden over the remaining weeks. The disparity means Lazio can afford to push advertising campaigns without fearing equal retaliation from Clinton. And she faces other looming roadblocks. According to the New York Times, the National Abortion and Reproductive Rights Action League (NARAL) sounded a mutinous chord this weekend, suggesting that while they respected the intent of the agreement, they weren...
...popular consent to rule. He may therefore opt for a runoff election, preferring to suppress some of his opponent's vote tally rather than inflate his own so that neither man registers more than 49 percent. Milosevic, also, is far from lacking in the requisite cynicism required to simply use opposition charges of widespread ballot fraud as an excuse to call another election.

But when he got lost in the thickets of tax-cut policy, they started leaning toward Gore, who promises to give their parents a prescription-drug benefit and pour...
Hillary Clinton may have broached the issue - but Rick Lazio drove it home. Early Sunday, after two weeks of increasingly embarrassing obfuscation, and four months after she proposed a similar ban, Clinton agreed to a deal with her opponent prohibiting the use of soft money for campaign advertising. The deal, penned by opponent Lazio, could herald a great rush of belt-tightening over at Clinton headquarters...
