- <p> Has Gus Savage had a change of heart? Just a year ago,
- during a bitter primary fight, the Democratic Congressman from
- Chicago ripped into opponent Mel Reynolds for accepting "Jewish
- money." How strange, then, that invitations to last week's
- $500-a-head "Gus Savage for Congress" fund raiser in Washington
- went to some of the same organizations he had vowed to "run back
- to Highland Park where you came from." What's more, the
- invitations carried the name of House Speaker Tom Foley, who had
- professed to be "disturbed" by Savage's inflammatory campaign
- rhetoric. The Speaker didn't turn up at the bash, but a Foley
- spokesman confirms that he "supports all Democratic candidates."
