accomplished a bit more for Bush than for Gore only because there were more question marks for Bush. I think he established that he possesses at least the minimum qualifications for being president.

What we're seeing early on is Democrats rallying around Al Gore, Republicans rallying around George Bush and the difficulty of anybody else to get any room in the race.

Even though I'm skeptical that this kind of issue is going to pull the rug out from Al Gore, I think it's a plus for the Republicans to be able to talk about foreign policy, to talk about national security and to talk about the failure of the administration of Bill Clinton and Al Gore in this one area.

I think ... Gore and Bush are, shall we say, chicken here.

Do you think Gore is entitled to any votes? Do you think Bush is entitled -- am I entitled to any votes? We have to earn them,

More voted for Al Gore than Gov. Bush,
