...stodgy as it was when it was best known for shows about 120-year-old former silent-movie actors solving crimes. But it is still the closest thing to an old-fashioned broadcast network we have: family sitcoms, "60 Minutes," sports and police procedurals - old-fashioned, meat-and-potatoes, missionary-position TV. There are a few well-produced reality shows on CBS now, yes, but no "Extreme Makeover," no "The Swan." If anybody is going to get plastic surgery at CBS, it'll be the actors and actresses, off-camera, like God intended...

...stodginess is compounded by the Senator's public performances. In an effort to seem positive, he has removed the "Bring It On" red meat from his stump speech and replaced it with Spam.
