Subject: "at the end of the day"



A Capitol Bureau reporter for the St Petersburg (Florida) Times wants to know

why "at the end of the day" has become a popular spin phrase in politics (and

else where). He has searched leading newspapers and finds more than double

the citations from 1991 to 1994. I said I'd ask around and see what y'all

have to say about it.

I will report back to him, but if any of you care to get in touch directly,

he's Bill Moss and his number is 904-224-7263.
