Behind Tom’s Turnaround
Daschle abandons the presidential race. But why? Was it his wife? PLUS: Bush Stimulus Short Four Republicans!

THE UNRECONCILED
br>
The White House in the coming weeks plans to heavily lobby Nebraska
Sen.
Ben Nelson
and Georgia Sen.
Zell
Miller
in hopes of luring them over to fully supporting
the Bush economic stimulus package. Hopeful of using a legislative
technique that would require only 51 votes to pass the tax cut
plan, the White House knows that it is at least four votes short.
That’s because Republicans
John McCain
,
Lincoln Chafee
,
Olympia Snowe
and
Susan Collins
have already announced at least
initial opposition to the Bush plan.
