The coup de farce intended to topple Speaker Newt, in which faithful lieutenants betrayed him, only to re-embrace their beloved leader, has the makings of a Broadway comedy.

Unfortunately, the farce is also a tragedy.

A great party, for whose principles good people have worked their whole lives, has been abused by those accorded its highest honors. The House leaders have done what Bill Clinton could not do. They have made the party of Ronald Reagan look ridiculous.

These are truly the dog days of the Republican Party.

Successive national tickets have been defeated by Bill Clinton as convincingly as the GOP Congress has been cowed. If the incoming mail of one writer on public affairs is a reliable barometer of public sentiment, the party is in trouble — for that mail is full of anger, despair and derision for the Republican leadership.

On this year’s centennial of the inauguration of William McKinley, Ohio University professor Alfred E. Eckes, a trade official under Ronald Reagan, addressed Ohio’s Historical Society.

As another anniversary of the Declaration of Independence is upon us, it is fair to ask: What would the men of ’76 think of us?

While they would surely be awed by America’s size, wealth and power, I suspect they would be unimpressed with our leaders and alarmed at our course.

A week ago, Bill Clinton invited a dozen African American columnists to the White House to brief them on his racial goals. “We want to become a multiracial, multiethnic society,” the president confided. “This will arguably be the third great revolution …. to prove that we literally can live without … having a dominant European culture.”

This fight, said Sen. Bob Dole after New Hampshire, “is for the heart and soul of the Republican Party.” Fair enough. But soon we shall see whether the GOP still has a soul.

President Clinton intends to renew “most favored nation” trading privileges (MFN) to China, granting Beijing the same access to U.S. markets that we grant to Great Britain.
