Tom in the middle
Former Senate Minority Leader Tom Daschle is scheduled to surface tomorrow evening in New York City, reflecting on the disappointing 2004 election as well as his party's -- and no doubt President Bush's -- "progressive" agenda in 2005.
"One year in one hour with ... Sen. Tom Daschle," is how the event is being touted by the Drum Major Institute for Public Policy, a nonpartisan bunch "dedicated to challenging the tired orthodoxies of both the right and the left."
Conservative huddle
Tired orthodoxy or not, Rep. Mike Pence of Indiana, chairman of the House Republican Study Committee, will convene his caucus of 100 House conservatives at a two-day retreat scheduled for Feb. 3-5 in Baltimore.
Among those attending: former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, former House Majority Leader Dick Armey of Texas and former Sen. Phil Gramm of Texas.
"The Conservative Members Retreat brings the best minds in the conservative movement in America together with conservative leaders in Congress," says Mr. Pence. "The number of members making it a priority shows that freshman and veteran conservatives alike understand this retreat will be the number one conservative strategy huddle all year."
