		Duc reported that "President Thieu felt it would be preferable to die now than to die bit by bit." Saigon would not yield, and now Hanoi, too, dug in.

		Despite opposition from Truong Chinh, the party ideologue, and Le Duc Tho, he was elected party chief at the Sixth Congress in December 1986.

		Kissinger, 49, the witty bon vivant and cosmopolite, seems to relish the spotlight; Tho, 62, a starchy and somewhat parochial party loyalist, lingers in the shadows, partly because of his own personality and partly as a reflection of his country's wishes.
		Tho's inchworm approach to a settlement has been more cautious than his own progress through his country's Communist Party.
		Of the two, Tho took the harder line on the fight for the South, arguing for an unremitting struggle.
