Dats l.~ 1., i 4 9 ~ INSIDE THE WHITE HOUSE BOB WOODWARD TAKES AIM AT QUAYLE ? Vice President Dan Quayle and his staff are a little edgy, having just heard that Washing- ton Post investigative reporter Bob Woodward and senior politi- cal writer David Broder are teaming up for an in-depth article on the Vice President. Some White House officials fear that Woodward is trying to turn up some dirt on Quayle. ? The latest joke is what George Bush said after being in- formed that Millie may be a source of his Graves' disease: "The bitch set me up. " ^ One of George Bush's new prized possessions: a specially printed box of Wheaties featuring the President catching a fish. The brass plaque on the Lucite-en- cased memento reads: To PRESI- DENT BUSH, THE CHAMPION OF PRESIDENTS, FROM THE COMPANY OF CHAMPIONS. ' Thg teleohone_ in Bush's Qrivate _study in the White House living quarters has but- tons giving him direct lines to the following people, as indicat- ed on tabs next to each button: VP, Marlin, Baker, Sununu, [White House deputy Andrew] Card, Webster. Brady, Brent, [Bush secretary] Patty Presock, Cheney, and Powell. ? The Bush 1992 campaign team is shaping up. Commerce Secretary Robert Mosbacher will soon resign to become chairman of the campaign. Pollster Bob Teeter will serve as grand strate- gist. Watch for some fireworks over this appointment-Teeter is a rival of White House chief of staff John Sununu, who is expect- ed to direct efforts from the White House. Teeter rejected a White House job in 1989 because he didn't like Sununu. Look for a major campaign post for political consultants Charlie Black or Rich Bond. Page 7t7.
