THE WEEK

□ What Biden, Kennedy, and Metzenbaum are really worried about is that Bork will repeal their Miranda rights.

□ “Then it don’t matter. Then I’ll be all around in the dark. I’ll be everywhere, wherever you look. Wherever there’s a fight, so hungry people can eat, I’ll be there. Wherever there’s a cop beating up a guy, I’ll be there.”—Tom Joad in The Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck. “There will be other presidential campaigns. And I’ll be there out front. I’ll be there. There’ll be other opportunities. There’ll be other battles, other places, other times, and I’ll be there. And I’ll be there . . .”—Joe Biden’s speech announcing he would give up his presidential bid in order to concentrate on defeating Judge Bork; as if certain disclosures about lying and plagiarism had nothing to do with it. Joe, you’re in a class by yourself, and near the bottom as usual.
