The Village Voice has a small piece about life in the spin room with the big party operators.

"It's important to distinguish between the two things going on at once," says Corn (David, political editor for The Nation). "They all come out and say my guy won, my guy won. That's easy to ignore. Then you hear what themes they're talking about, and it gives you some insight into what their game plan is in the weeks ahead. By seeing what they're emphasizing, you can make a good guess at what's coming down the pipe."
