Over the weekend, Prime Minister Ariel Sharon visited with Jewish supporters and philanthropists in the United States in an effort to pump up his third campaign for Israeli prime minister.

There have been reports that Uzi Landau's candidacy for prime minister may actually cut into support for Netanyahu, and thereby contribute to a Sharon victory.

Landau denied the reports, saying, "We are certainly acting toward a common goal on the 26th in the elections in the Central Committee, but let there be no doubt, we are running [separately], and I intend to run to the end."
