There are some mods that help with the spam comments but like mentioned before you will have to manually delete them.

Most people or spammers don't read your blog posts and just reply with a few short words to get a backlink. Make sure you ban those IP and email address since those might be paid blog commenters. Hurt em in the pockets is all we can do and ban them from our blogs.
If you are self hosted wordpress blog, i could did up some plugins from the wordpress site that you can look at. Nothing will help out the spam 100% but some plugins help a little.
