Nader, Buchanan not
on debate guest list
■The Reform and Green
party candidates were barred
from the first presidential
debate.to be held tonight.
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON - Ralph
Nader and Pat Buchanan don’t
agree on much. But they're
standing together in contending
they both should be included in
the presidential debates.
Both plan to be in Boston for
the first debate tonight.
However, they will be outsiders
looking in, barred from a nation
al forum that could have given
their flagging third-party cam
paigns a boost
Buchanan, the Reform Party
candidate, and the Green Party
nominee, Nader, fell far short of
the 15 percent support they
needed in major polls. The per
cent is required by the sponsor
ing bipartisan Commission on
Presidential Debates.
As one caller to CNN’s "Larry
King Live” put it: “Give up, Mr.
Buchanan.”
“I never give up, young lady,”
Buchanan replied. He blamed a
lack of money, sparse media
coverage and getting barred
from the debates as killing his
campaign’s chances.
Buchanan also said Bush
wouldn’t want him standing on
the same stage in the debates.
“Mr. Bush has abandoned
conservatives. That convention
was an insult to Reaganism,” he
said, referring to the Republican
National Convention and the
former GOP president.
Nader was appearing on the
program’s second half.
Earlier Monday, in Concord,
N.H., Buchanan called his exclu
sion from the debate “a willful
act of malice and discrimina
tion” that he later said “cheats
the American people of the right
to hear a candidate whose cam
paign they’re paying for."
Nader and Buchanan have
failed to climb out of the single
digits in recent national surveys.
These same polls, however,
show that a third or more would
like to see a four-way debate,
with Buchanan and Nader join
ing Democrat A1 Gore and
Republican George W. Bush.
The presidential debates
sponsored by the commission
— have the potential to reach
millions of voters and could be
crucial in attracting people who
might not be swayed through 1
traditional campaigning.
The other two debates are
scheduled for Oct. 11 in
Winston-Salem, N.C., and Oct.
17 in St. Louis.
“If you don’t get on national
television, you don’t reach the
voters, and if you don’t get in the
debates, you don’t reach the vot
ers,” Nader said.
Both Buchanan and Nader
have used former wrestler Jesse
Ventura to show how debates
can influence elections. Ventura
barely mustered 10 percent in
Minnesota polls before partici
pating in candidate debates in
the gubernatorial election,
which he won in 1998.

Sashaying in fancier dancing duds
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MILAN, Italy - The latest
disco darling is a chic chick.
Brought up on kiddie couture,
she is ready to hit the dance
floor in signature style.
Hot pants and stiletto heels
replace slit jeans and lace-ups.
She wears her tops tight, her
hair loose and flaunts her
daddy’s bank account in gold
chains and crystal beads.
Such is the contemporary
teeny-bopper envisioned by
Donatella Versace and the
Dolce & Gabbana duo, who
showed their second-line col
lections on Sunday, the first day
of the weeklong Italian ready
to-wear preview presentations
for spring-summer 2001.
Traditionally aimed at the
younger set, Versace’s Versus
and the D&G label this round
upped the ante of disco dress
ing. The look was reminiscent
of the 1980s, but no matter —
daughter won't be able to imag
ine that mom could have worn
anything that cool.
“Girls go crazy for luxury
these days," Donatella said
after her show, staged in a for
mer electrical goods factory.
The new collection features
ultratight satin pants softened
by a demure bow stitched on
the backside and topped by silk
T-shirts with enticing neck
lines.
Although the models wore
no jewelry, there was plenty of
sparkle in the stones that
adorned the belts and high
heeled sandals and the lavish
gold embroidery.
The night life theme was
more apparent at D&G, where
the fun-loving designers creat
ed a makeshift disco complete
with gilded palm trees, gold
leather couches and black lac
quered coffee tables, set up
under a tent in the garden of
their downtown Milan home.
The young models teetered
down the runway in high stilet
to sandals wearing gilded
microminis or skintight white
satin hot pants matched with
brightly sequined tops or
skintight flesh-colored T-shirts.
Fishnet stockings, gold and
crystal jewelry, enormous satin
bows in strategic places and a
fetching cowboy hat complet
ed the look.
