Commentary: "He was the most powerful man in America. The closest aide a president has ever had. He masterminded the re-election of a president everyone thought was finished. Until, he was caught with a hooker in a Washington hotel. Dick Morris' remarkable story behind the Oval Office isn't available in this country but you can read exclusive extracts starting tomorrow and every day next week in the Guardian".
