Given the history between Reich and Gore, the veep's team couldn't have been very surprised by Reich's defection to the Bradley camp. There was a caustic note to the official response to the news, however, that might point to a little bit of hurt. "I hope this means Mr. Reich will educate Senator Bradley's team on Medicaid, Medicare and Social Security - all programs threatened by Bradley's agenda," Gore spokesman Chris Lehane huffed to the Associated Press. With Gore's long list of endorsements growing every day, his campaign is not in any way imperiled...
...Madison Square Garden was filled with reminiscences rather than rebounds, but on Monday Bill Bradley showed he's still got game, scoring a major slam-dunk over Democratic front-runner Al Gore. Visiting a school in New Hampshire, Bradley was formally endorsed by former Clinton labor secretary Robert Reich, who called the candidate "a man of commitment, dedication and vision."

...someone as brazen as Parker. Unfazed by the mob-wide surge for skippy techno, she announced her hatred of Fatboy Slim to the media (market self-sabotage--how will the masses relate?).

The far-right Freedom party, whose leader, Joerg Haider, has expressed views sympathetic to the Third Reich, became the second largest party in Austria after Sunday?s election, finishing only 6 percent behind the ruling Social Democrats and ahead of its coalition partner, the conservative People?s party. The mystery is how an extremist party has managed to break into the mainstream at a time of prosperity and relative social calm. "Austrians are not angry, they?re bored," says TIME Central Europe bureau reporter...
...book?s protagonist, Oskar, refuses to grow in protest at the hypocrisies he sees all around him as Germany is seduced by the allure of Nazism, and then ?- as a dwarf ?- gains privileged access to the elite of the Third Reich. Its bold exploration of issues postwar Germany was doing its best to forget made its author a legendary social critic and literary provocateur. He became strongly identified with Germany?s political left, and in 1990 was criticized for rejecting the speedy reunification of East and West Germany. "In his later writing, he took partisan political positions," says Gray...
