...party loyalty, after all, not personal politics - much like John McCain's earlier endorsement of George W. Bush. If Bradley had his druthers, he might not have stepped up to Gore's side; it was only a few months ago that these two were knee-deep in one of nastiest Democratic primaries in years, tearing into each other on national television. Bradley and Gore don't love each other, and they don't really care who knows it. But both of them want the Dems to do well in November - and Bradley's approval is critical to Gore...
...villains. Everyone remembers Cruela de Vil, the Wicked Queen in Snow White, Ursula the Sea Witch, Maleficent, Madame Medusa - but who remembers the fat guy in Pocohontas, the evil dude in The Aristocats, or any of the various gun-toting hunters? The truth is, the femme fatales are the nastiest, most memorable characters - kids have nightmares about them, adults actually see menace in their evil, they just _last_ longer in the public consciousness. Why? Because the animators have more room to play with perversity. The wicked woman can be defined in so many ways - you'll get lethal female consumerism...
...depth of its pitching carried Harvard last year, and holdovers John Birtwell and Ben Crockett were the top two on that staff. Birtwell was banged up in his start at UCLA, surrendering five earned runs on six hits through 2.2 innings, but the junior has the nastiest stuff in the Ivy, including a two-seamer, four-seamer, change and breaking ball--which he throws from a variety of arm angles. Crockett, who shared Ivy Rookie of the Year honors with Princeton's Chris Young, consistently throws his fastball in the high 80's, and mixes in a curveball...

We know in our heart of hearts that the Rothko on the boardroom wall does not turn the saber-toothed CEO into Bambi and that some of the nastiest beasts in history, such as Hermann Goring, have been sincere and knowledgeable art lovers. Moreover, being an important collector doesn't even show that you have halfway decent manners, let alone morals. Witness the late Dr. Albert Barnes, who before World War I became a multimillionaire from selling a snake...
...playwright's comedy drama about two brothers fighting over their father's money--the third of a trilogy that includes last season's The Beauty Queen of Leenane--plays at first like a Two Stooges farce. But the laughs thinly disguise a chilling picture of human nature at its nastiest and a rebuke to the romance of rural Ireland...
