But each side’s election-year drive to portray the other as the villain is just begin ning. In professed attempts to revive the budget-balancing effort, President Clinton and Republicans are waging separate long-shot campaigns to woo congressional moderates from the other party to their warring visions of spending and tax cuts. At the same time, Republicans may force House votes next month on the two camps’ final offers at the budget talks, in hopes of showing that few Democrats support Clinton’s plan while there is bipartisan backing for the GOP proposal. Real budget work remains. The administration says a cataclysmic fed eral default will occur unless Con gress extends the debt limit in Febru ary. And temporary spending authority for dozens of agencies, renewed last Friday, will have to be extended once again by March 15. But for now, both parties—aware that voters want federal deficits elimi nated—are trying to avoid blame for the collapse of the year-long budget effort. Colombian president admits drug money tainted election tsuciu 1 A, Colombia (AP)—Ac knowledging he won office with drug money but insisting he was duped, President Ernesto Samper convened a special Congress session Tuesday and asked lawmakers to determine who was responsible. He appealed to lawmakers to begin investigating immediately, saying, “I’m not prepared to negotiate my innocence.” Samper is de fying demands that he resign over mounting evidence that he won office in 1994 with millions of dollars from the Cali cocaine gang, a scandal that is severely testing Colombia’s democratic institutions. Samper denies solicitingdrug money. After opposition lawmakers accused Samper of trying to dodge justice, the president called Congress back early from its recess. In his strongest admis sion yet that his campaign was tainted, Samper said it was important that Con gress establish “who, when and using what channels contaminated it.” Nebraskan Editor J.
