May 2014

Everyone knows that Bill Clinton had a very sleazy inappropriate relationship and then lied about it under oath. They already had an impeachment and the Senate voted not to throw him out. It is over.

As there is nothing new, I doubt it changes the opinion of anyone about Bill Clinton -- let alone Hillary Clinton. It might be best if we just ignore it. The worst thing is to give anyone MORE oxygen on this by defending or excusing Bill Clinton. Why is it hard to say that he was an exceptional politician or a competent President AND that he behaved badly with an intern.
