On the recordJuly 11, 1999
She decided, irrespective of the Senate race--I told her when we moved here, I said, ``You know, ever since you came to Arkansas in 1973, we've lived where my work dictated and where I wanted to move. When we get out of here''--this is a 1993 conversation we had-- ``when get out of here, I'm going to have to spend a lot of time at home because I've got to build my library and my center there, and''--but I said, ``but I will live wherever else you want to live.'' And she told me years ago that she wanted to go to New York. And I said that's fine with me. I love New York. I'd be happy to live there. It would be fine. So I'm going to divide my time between New York and Arkansas no matter what happens. I talked to her three times yesterday; it was really, I think, an exciting day for her. She felt really good about it. Mr. Herbert. Tough for a New York reporter--I've got to decide whether to cover her or cover you.
