For thirty years the media has dominated politics. Now the Internet is taking the media's place as the driving force in American political life. Already almost 80 million Americans use the Internet and almost fifty million of them log on everyday.

In his latest book VOTE.COM, Dick Morris, the master of polling and spin, explains how the Internet is making the craft of politics as we now knot it obsolete.

Morris is predicting:
--Money won't matter in politics because the free Internet will replace paid television advertising
--America will be governed by direct democracy as people express their opinions directly on the Net, forcing Congress to heed their will
--Polling will be replaced by the Internet. Instead of asking a statistically valid sample of us, pollsters will just ask all of us on the Internet
By examining the lessons of Bill Clinton's "unimpeachment," Morris explains how the president avoided removal from office by using the new rules of the Fifth Estate to defeat the forces of the Fourth Estate which wanted him ousted. Morris shows how Clinton's understanding of the new forces shaping our politics helped him survive and overcome scandal.
AUTHOR BIO: Dick Morris is an author, commentator, consummate political insider, and former advisor to President Clinton and Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott, among others.
