...arena, allegations of cheating flew faster than after a tight election. And, like all political spats, big business played a large role. HRC arranged sponsorship from Boston consulting firm SpiderSplat, which fronted $600 and sent a few consultants to play with the young ideologues and to recruit interns. FM embedded itself with the troops and, in an act of magnamity, took up arms with the beleaguered Dems.

Last summer, for instance, when Emanuel tried to convince Heath Shuler, former star quarterback at the University of Tennessee, to run for Congress from his native North Carolina, he had to make a hard sell. Shuler said he was worried he wouldn?t get enough time with his two young children if he was constantly shuttling back and forth from Capitol Hill...
