- <p> During the campaign, they were at the heart of what was known
- as the War Room, the pressurized chamber in Little Rock famed for
- formulating rapid political parries and thrusts: James
- Carville, the raging Cajun strategist; his partner, Paul Begala;
- media maven Mandy Grunwald; and pollster Stanley Greenberg. When
- they failed to follow Clinton to the White House, their
- laser-sharp populist instincts were soon missed. Now Clinton has
- called them back, though just how much he relies on them remains
- a question. In room 160 of the Executive Office Building, aides
- have re-created the War Room. Around a giant table with a dozen
- or so phones and six television sets (as well as around the West
- Wing), the four spend time with top Administration aides,
- helping plot strategy. As one of the quartet explains it, "Room
- 160 is an organizing force."
