What began as a familiar call to James A. Baker III to rescue President Bush's stalled re-election campaign has escalated into a promise that he would take charge of the economy in a second term. And other aides raised the possibility that he would deliver an important speech this week. Not in anyone's political memory has a top aide come so close to virtually pre-empting the presidential candidate. Was this an admission by Bush that his old friend, his man for all jobs and seasons, was more credible with voters than he, the president? Will Baker, or Bush even, get a second chance? ANALYSIS "It's very strange. They clearly are looking for a miracle worker," said Robert Schmuhl, associate professor of American studies at Notre Dame. After decades of winning, Baker After decades of winning, Baker could be about to lose. Jim Baker is no ordinary government official, not a guy who easily fits that capital-shorthand appellation of top aide or senior official. He is one of those quintessential Washington figures who come along once a generation or so, whose careers define the potential of unselected power in a city dominated by those who proudly wear the title "politician." Financier Bernard Baruch set the standard during the Roosevelt years. Dean Acheson was one and Clark Clifford another. John McCloy, Averell Harriman and Robert Strauss made this small, establishment list. Some aspire and come close but don't quite make it. Baker has the resume. Undersecretary of commerce during the Ford administration, White House chief of staff during Ronald Reagan's first term and treasury secretary in his second. The day after the election in 1988, Bush announced his secretary of state. His choice was Baker. Baker's reputation for getting the job done began in 1976, when President Gerald Ford recruited him to help overcome a Republican nomination challenge from Ronald Reagan. Before long, Baker's code name on the White House communications system was "Miracle Worker." Baker continues to insist that he is not a politician. He would like to be remembered as a figure of substance, as treasury secretary and even more as secretary of state. When he got that job four years ago, Baker thought he had finally moved above the seamy business of politics. tects his image than Baker. That reputation persists, justified in part by a remarkable record in government and politics, as well as a dazzling collection of newspaper clips. No one in Washington more assiduously cultivates the media and pro- But he could never shake free. It was politics that brought him this far and politics that would not let him go. Politics and George Bush. Try to sum up what makes the Baker legend and it comes down to pretty basic virtues. He is fiercely competitive and works harder than nearly anybody, has a terrific eye for detail, is charming and utterly ruthless. He has an unerring instinct for power and a remarkable talent for turning up at the right hand of presidents. Consider this. Baker worked for Ford in 1976 and Bush in 1980, both times working to deny Ronald Reagan the GOP presidential nomination. He came away with one victory and one loss. What did he do next? He went to work for Reagan. Bush played his Baker card in August. He summoned his old friend to take over as White House chief of staff and straighten out the campaign. There was a swift purge of dead wood. The operation appeared smoother; the attacks grew sharper. But the poll numbers didn't budge. Incumbents raise more campaign money The Associated Press close to call. One of the biggest financial gaps between incumbent and challenger is in one of the closest races — the Oregon battle between Republican Sen. Bob Packwood and Democratic Rep. Les AuCoin. WASHINGTON — Incumbent senators of both political parties are raising and spending considerably more campaign money than their challengers. Packwood, senior Republican on the Senate Finance Committee, has raised $7.8 million — more than four times as much as AuCoin's $1.9 million. Still, the race is considered too Other disclosures in the FEC reports in Pennsylvania, another Republican senator, Arlen Specter, has raised $7.4 million, compared with $3.6 million for Democratic nominee Lynn Yeakel. With the race rated a toss-up, Yeakel's treasury filed a report with the Federal Election Commission showing only $277,000 cash at the end of September. Specter reported $1.5 million. Sen. Kit Bond, R-Mo., has raised $2.7 million to $682,591 for Democratic candidate Gerli Rothman-Serot. The incumbent reported $1.3 million left to close the campaign while Rothman-Serot reported $277,043. Democratic nominee Carol Mosley Braum of Illinois continued to outraise Republican opponent Rich Williamson. The totals for the year $5.1 million for Braun, $1.9 million for Williamson. ■ In Colorado, Republican Terry Considine has raised $1.3 million. The Democratic nominee, Rep. Ben Nighthorse Campbell, reported $64,000 through Sept. 30. Campbell had $198,503 cash for the end of the campaign; Considine reported $97,651. They are seeking the seat of Democrat Tim Wirth, who is retiring.
