Time stood still. It was a late grey morning in Washington covered
with a light mist as Ronald Reagan's funeral cortege rode slowly up
Embassy Row to the National Cathedral. For a full week, the business
of government ceased, the political campaign was suspended and the
relentless momentum of negative stories undermining the Bush
administration skidded to a halt.
