    Up for Grabs - Not since the Eisenhower administration has control of both chambers of Congress been so clearly up for grabs going into Election Day. In this special report, National Journal looks at the four possible outcomes and the implications of each. National Journal reporters also identify 14 issues (listed below) that would be especially affected by a change in the status quo on Capitol Hill, plus one--foreign affairs--that almost certainly would not be.

    FOREIGN AFFAIRS: Trans-Atlantic Tensions - Americans and Europeans increasingly find themselves at odds on issue after issue: what approach to take in the Israeli-Palestinian struggle; whether to go to war with Iraq; how to combat global warming; whether to adhere to arms-control treaties. The fact that the disagreements are multiplying despite the unity displayed in the immediate aftermath of September 11 is all the more worrisome. It suggests that there's something deeply unsettled at the foundation of trans-Atlantic relations.

    FOREIGN AFFAIRS - Justice Delayed - Thirty years after the Khmer Rouge formed a hyper-Maoist totalitarian regime that engineered the deaths of some 2 million people, Khmer Rouge leaders may finally face trials for their war crimes. But it is unclear whether such trials will meet the expectations of Cambodians and foreigners who have been pushing for them for many years, and enable the battered country to move beyond the shadow of that horrific period. Doubts persist about whether the Cambodian government is genuinely committed to the tribunals.

    Guide to the Web: A STAFF REPORT - Need to know where to get information on how states are complying with the No Child Left Behind Act or how the tax burdens of high-income earners have changed?

In this special report, National Journal highlights hundreds of Web sites, organized by 50 issue areas likely to be topical in 2004. National Journal reporters selected the Web sites based on interviews with experts in those fields, as well as their own experience in using the Internet as a resource.

    John Kerry as a World Leader - What kind of world leader would John Kerry make? Some Bush supporters would have you believe that a Kerry administration would turn foreign-policy decisions over to Jacques Chirac in France and Kofi Annan at the United Nations. But wide-ranging discussions with Kerry's top foreign--policy advisers point to a collective mind--set on foreign affairs that reflects a confident belief in America's capacity to continue to drive the agenda of global politics. The worldview of the Kerry folks can be best understood as the perspective of an East Coast, liberal establishment crew that overcame its own Vietnam-grounded hesitations about the political use of military power during the Balkans crisis of the 1990s and now worries that liberal populists, pointing to the morass in Iraq, will force a retreat away from necessary interventions in the future.

    News - Foreign and Security Policy of the Bush Administration - Due to the stalemate-like situation in the Congress, the Bush administration will probably find it rather difficult to win the necessary majorities for the implementation of the President's political program. After the extremely narrow election result and the disputes over the counting of votes that went on for weeks on end, President Bush has indeed made every effort to contribute with cautious words and friendly gestures to appease the irritated political climate. But both the debate about the appointments to positions in the Cabinet which - Contrary to expectations - Includes only one secretary of the Democrats and the quarrel about the planned tax reduction have rekindled the tensions between the Republican and Democratic parties. This domestic constellation will probably also have an impact on foreign affairs. In this respect it is difficult to assess to what extent the changes of the administration's foreign policy announced during the election campaign will actually be possible to be implemented.
