Even as spinning has become more egregious, the general attitude toward it has mellowed. Once it was disreputable. Then it became accepted, traditional, expected. Now it is positively glamorous. James Carville and Mary Matalin have become famous and wealthy by flaunting themselves as spin doctors. Every time you think the beyond-egregious Dick Morris has finally said something so preposterous that TV bookers will shy away, his appearances only increase...
...months before the primary, he has raised $360,000, most of it in fund raisers thrown from Los Angeles to New York City. His financial disclosure reports read like a Who's Who of the party, with three former Republican National Committee chairmen, a Rockefeller and pundit Mary Matalin contributing.

Buchanan will replace Mary Matalin on CNBC's Equal Time, and she's clear about her mission. "I'm involved in a movement," she says. "This is a terrific opportunity to have our issues kept in the public debate." Rodman's vision is a bit murkier. MTV says the freestyle show will have guests and commentary. But the Tattooed One calls his program "something totally different" with "all of my real-life...
