Summer is the perfect opportunity to take a class at JCCC." -John Thorne, Overland Park, Kan. "I was attending a large state university when I decided to enroll in a summer class at JCCC," recalls student John Thorne. "I was back in Kansas City for the summer, and I wanted to get a class out of the way so my fall load would be lighter. "I intended to go back to the university in the fall. But my experience at JCCC was so positive, I decided to stay and finish my first two years here.

The Republican National Committee plans a major television advertising effort at mid-month, and had planned to assail Clinton as a liberal hiding behind conservative rhetoric on such issues as taxes, welfare reform and crime. While the Republican Party's woes have been detailed clearly in public opinion research dating back to last year's budget fights, many top Dole and GOP strategists were stunned at the depth of the dissatisfaction discovered at more than a dozen recent focus groups commissioned by the Republican National Committee.

But, after reviewing the data, top GOP strategists decided the urgent task was boosting the Republican Party's standing. So new ads were ordered, focusing less on Clinton and more on GOP values. The Associated Press The findings suggested that, despite his 20-point lead in national polls, there is considerable discomfort with Clinton among swing voters who question the Democratic Indeed, at one of the Republican Party focus groups in Knoxville, Tenn., one man made clear he was not a fan of Clinton. But when talk turned to the Republicans, he summed up his feelings this way: "Gingrich ought to be shot."

But the findings also detailed the toll last year's congressional debate took on the Republican Party's image. "There is a huge anti-Washington feeling across all groups and geographical lines," said a senior Dole adviser who reviewed the focus group reports late last week. "And a huge feeling that Newt Gingrich is the king of Washington. Dole personally rates better but is wearing the label of Republican Congress extremism around his neck right now." on issues from protecting Medicare and the environment, and the price Dole, the Senate majority leader, is paying for the GOP's poor standing.
