6A - The Michigan Daily - Thursday, January 27, 2000 NATION/WORLD Bush, McCain spar repeatedly in Manchester debate' Ihc W1'ashin gtn Post MANCI 1ESTER, N.! 1. The two men lead- ing the Republican pack in New Hampshire sparred repeatedly - and sometimes in person- al terms over taxes, Icderal spending and du- CatiOn during a 90-minute debate last night in a series of increasingly testy exchanges, Tcxas Gov. George W Bush said Arizona Sen. John McCain's tax proposal leaves too much money in Washington and McCain charged that Bush's school voucher plan would rob public schools of federal money. Bush, looking to close the polling gap with McCain, accused McCain of crafting a tax plan that "Al Gore would have written." McCain immediately fired back: "If you're saying I'm like Al Gore, you're spinning like Bill Clinton" The final debate before "Tuesday's primary here also found both men defending their anti- abortion credentials. Earlier yesterday, McCain was forced to correct an answer about what he would do if his teen-age daughter told him she were pregnant. Alan Keyes, the longshot candi- date in the race, seized on the comment, saying it "displayed a profound lack of understanding" of the abortion issue. "I'm proud of my pro-life record," replied McCain, noting that he was the "only one" on the stage here who had voted on the Senate floor "for the preservation of life of the unborn." But McCain drew a line on the question: "I will not draw my children into this discussion" Later in the session, McCain, a Vietnam pris- oner of war, chastised Keyes: "I've seen enough killing in my life. I know how precious human life is and I don't need a lecture from you." Steve Forbes, seeking to capitalize on his sec- ond place finish to Bush in towa, charged that the Texas governor's record on tax cuts, govern- ment spending and education was far worse than Bush has acknowledged - in some instances even worse than the Clinton administration's. "So many half stories, so little time," Bush said in one of his trademark quips. Bush said he has slowed the rate of state spending in Texas more than any previous gov- ernor and that public schools there are "meeting-.,, the challenge" of educating minority students. He said the people ofTexas "looked at the real facts" and re-elected him by a landslide in 1998. The five men, standing behind podiums, cut 4 wide swath yesterday night, moving from China to foreign oil to whether the term "minority" should be eliminated as the country moves from majority white to majority minority. 1 a :y . sW How will you start the millennium?
