[Also on Gore's agenda is an initiative proposing assistance to elderly widows.] Anyone who is in the later stages of life needs a support system around them and these women don't have it, ... Demographic studies show that women outlive men, so there is disproportionately large number of elderly women who need help. |
[That assumes, of course, that voters are paying close attention. Few are--at least at this point.] They're more interested in spending time with their families and planning for graduation or summer vacations, as well they should, ... the details laid out now will provide the foundation for the debate that takes place in the fall, when people do start to tune in. |

And the winner is whoever has the biggest knife. Exactly what Arnold was hoping for, and looking for. |
