...REPORTS: CAMPAIGN AMERICAN STYLE (CBS, 10-11 p.m.). Can an almost unknown candidate become a potential winner in eight months? Jay McMullen and Eric Sevareid zoom in on "the new politics," to show how public relations, advertising and other image makers can "create" a politician-in this case, Sol Wachtler, now a New York State Supreme Court judge.
