MESA, AZ - An empty building next to the Mesa Arts Center will be buzzing immediately following the Arizona Republican Presidential Debate Wednesday night.
It's called the 'Spin Room'. There are more than 300 members of the media credentialed for the debate.
They'll congregate in the Spin Room to get the post-debate comments they need for their story.
That's where the "spinning" comes in Wednesday night.
Representatives for the candidates, or possibly the candidates themselves, will put their spin on who won, who lost, and who was successful in getting their message across.
"Whatever it takes to get your message out will take place in the Spin Room," said Mesa Mayor Scott Smith. "It's a free for all of spinning, not the bicycle type."
