(Page 3 of 3)

br> The AFL-CIO, after meeting with senior Democratic congressional leaders Tom Daschle and Dick Gephardt and Democratic National Committee staffers including chief Terry McAuliffe , approved an increase in the amount of union-member contributions that will go to underwrite AFL-CIO political activities. The new funds mean that the DNC will be seeing an additional $3.5 million in soft money from the AFL-CIO for the 2002 electoral cycle. /p>

"We need it. Bad," says a DNC fundraiser. He says the bulk of the additional $3.5 million will go to key Senate races.

p> ON THE BEACH br> Former President Bill Clinton loves it down under. In Australia, that is. The ex-prez has made two trips to the former penal colony as fall and winter fell across America. Why? /p>

"It's summer down there," says a former Clinton aide, who recently saw old boss on a recent fundraising trip through Chicago. "He loves those beaches down there with all those babes in thongs. It's better than freezing in New York or that chilly atmosphere in Washington."
