WASHINGTON — First it was George Herbert Walker Bush, now Malcolm Stevenson Forbes. Jr. For Bob Dole, it is a scenario all too familiar: Just when he thinks the presidential nomination is within reach, a preppy challenger with inherited wealth threatens his grip.

Dole isn't the only 1996 Republican candidate to
When he takes after Forbes' wealth, it sometimes is done with deft humor. The other day Dole predicted he would win once voters added up their assets, but then he jokingly cringed and said of Forbes, "He's got a lot of those." But increasingly, Dole's references to Forbes' fortune are made with a nervous, biting sarcasm — not unlike some of the swipes Dole took at Bush in their 1988 nomination battle.
By John King The Associated Press
Clearly frustrated with Forbes' surge, Dole now more and more recalls his hardscrabble upbringing in Russell, Kan., the onetime paperboy and soda jerk whose family endured hard times by moving into the basement of their home and renting out the stairs.
Among those sympathetic to Dole is rival Buchanan.
But while these salvos usually are delivered with a good-natured smile. Forbes clearly is getting under Dole's sigh.

"I went to public schools. Some of the candidates don't have that advantage," was a favorite Dole way of drawing a contrast with Bush, who attended the exclusive Phillips Academy and then Yale.
Some also say Dole's resentment toward Bush is why he rejected advice to drop out of the 1988 race after being trounced on Super Tuesday, instead staying on to endure several more embarrassing defeats.
This weekend, for example, Dole was campaigning in New Hampshire and criticizing Forbes' self-financed advertising campaign, most
"Nobody gave it to me," Dole said in that campaign. "I didn't have rich and powerful parents. I made it the hard way. I worked at it."
Shaking his head at the picture of his career painted in the Forbes ads, Dole offers a different take: "It's been about values and honesty and decency and self-reliance and discipline."
Voters seem divided on the issue; some raise questions about Forbes' wealth, while others say, a la millionaire Ross Perot, it insulates him from special interests.
Eight years later, it is much the same.
Forbes, on the other hand, gets compared to Victor Kiam, the wealthy investor who boasts in TV ads that he liked his electric Remington razor so much "I bought the company."
The Senate majority leader started with a joke: "I've seen so many negative ads about Bob Dole I probably wouldn't vote for myself. I can't be that bad." After a brief pause, Dole scowled and added: "I can't be that rich, either."
"What Forbes is saying is, I like it so much I bought the country," Dole says. "I don't think America is for sale."
Dole also occasionally refers to Forbes derivively as Malcolm, including the other day when he demanded, again, that Forbes release his tax returns. Forbes has long gone by Steve, and the use of Malcolm by Dole and other candidates, including former Tennessee Gov. Lamar Alexander, is reminiscent of attempts, by Bush of all people, to rile former Delaware Gov. Pete du Pont in the 1988 campaign by calling him by his given name, Pierre.
of it dedicated to labeling Dole a tax-raising, wasteful-spending Washington insider.
Inside the Dole campaign, there is considerable debate about whether taking issue with Forbes' wealth is worth the time. "But a lot of it comes straight from Dole," said a senior campaign strategist who spoke on condition of anonymity. "It clearly bothers him."
Ames who remember Dole's 1988 experience say it frustrated him that Bush, the son of a wealthy senator, got to be vice president although his only experience in elective office was four years in the House.
It's not just the monev.
"The fact that he was beaten by George Bush has always bothered him," Buchanan said. "Bob Dole came up the hard way, and I think he is a good man. He would be deeply chagrined to lose this to someone who bought the nomination out from under him with inherited wealth. His view is that you have to earn these things. My view is that life is unfair."
