SPIN TO WIN

Zach Knaus, the chief spinmeister for the Senate Democrats, put up a sign in the press office that says, "Spin like a champion today."

"He wants us to do the Norte Dame thing and tap it on the way out," joked policy analyst Andy White.

Senate President Joan Fitz-Gerald, D-Coal Creek Canyon, didn't get the joke when she saw the sign.

"Who's taking spinning classes here?" she wanted to know.
