...homage to this appetite for destruction, the mad lads at Subway Cinema have commandeered Anthology Film Archives in New York City this weekend for an 11-film binge titled ?In the Mood for Gore.? The series may sound like a nostalgia nosh for Democrats still smarting from the 2000 election. But the subtitle explains all: ?22 Years of Deliciously Evil Hong Kong Cinema.? The bestial festival, which runs through Thursday the 14th, assembles films famous (Samo Hung?s ?Close Encounters of the Spooky Kind,?

The campaign even rallied around hundreds of detaine Haitian refugees in Miami last week in a not-so-subtle effort to raise the kind of massive black voter turnout that helped Al Gore run neck-and-neck with George W. Bush in Florida two years...
...race between Republican Rep. Connie Morella and Democratic challenger Chris Van Hollen has been tight all along, ever since redistricting pulled more Democrats into the eight-term incumbent Morella's once-solidly GOP district. A win here for the Democrats would be historic; with that in mind, Al Gore and Hillary Rodham Clinton have been on hand stumping for Van Hollen...
