WHERE IS THE LOVE?

摘要

There's an old parlor game, a kind of gut check for the heart and the head. Would you rather be rich or pretty? Happy or famous? Is it better to be good or to be smart? For a while this race looked like a clean choice, more government or lower taxes, the Tin Man or the Scarecrow, the teacher's pet or the class clown. But with each freshly deadlocked poll, it is looking less like a clear choice than a hard one. And last week it became a real one as well, when voters finally got to watch Al Gore and George W. Bush, naked on the same stage, and come to grips with what it would mean to choose between them.
