THE
SCENE
With both Clintons in attendance,
there was quite a buzz among the powerhouse group of political
guests who sipped on Duke 2002 Chardonnay and heavily iced
Perrier on the Penn's Georgetown patio. Appetizers were plenty
and included miniature beef tenderloin hamburgers, tomato
and slices of basil and lemon crab salad served on individual
silver spoons. Beinart, with wife Diana Hartstein at his side,
signed copies of his book, which tackles current thinking on
foreign policy.

who arrived and left before her husband Former President
Bill Clinton, Andrei Cherny, Leon Panetta, Kenneth Pollack,
Andrea Koppel, William Galston and Sen. Ron Wyden.
