HOUNDING CONSERVATIVE SCENT

Your headline of Nov. 10 asked: ``Can they all get along?'' Pictures of Bill Clinton, Bob Dole and Newt Gingrich were underneath.

This is not the question on America's mind. If it were, we would still have a Democratic Congress.

The Republicans were elected in overwhelming numbers because Americans do not trust Bill and Hillary to do what is right for the country. Thus, the watchdogs were brought in.

Also on the front page that same day was Guy Friddell's ``Reality will disarm Republican revolution.'' No doubt Mr. Friddell felt kinship with the rest of the liberal news media as they gnashed their teeth election night. One would have thought they were holding a funeral.

Mr. Friddell's column assures us that you have recovered and will launch an unprecedented attack on absolutely anything with the slightest conservative scent.
