From the party of frosted flakes: Bradley so far fails to endorse AlGore, aka, "JUNIOR".

Al Gore has failed to win an all-out endorsement from Bill Bradley, who has not stumped or raised funds for the vice president ? or even met with him ? since grudgingly agreeing to help the Democratic victor two months ago.

The former New Jersey senator has refused to relinquish his nearly 500 delegates and has refrained from urging the 3 million Americans who cast votes for him to switch their allegiance to Mr. Gore. There has been no public purging of the bad blood he has harbored toward the vice president, whom he characterized throughout the primaries as a lying, craven political opportunist who cannot be trusted with the presidency.

The press has remained virtually silent on the lingering bitterness between Mr. Gore and Mr. Bradley, although it has made a major political story out of the ill will between John McCain and George W.
