73. Yup, count on Clintons to play the helpless pawn game - all those female predators!

The brilliant, charming, powerful philanderer and his enabling wife - how many decades can you blame the women?

We're supposed to believe they were sexual predators and their victim was the most powerful man in his state/governor or the most powerful man in the country/president.

Paula Jones - an Arkansas state employee
Gennifer Flowers - a porn actress
Monica Lewinsky - a White House intern
Kathleen Willey - a White House volunteer aide
Juanita Broaddrick - an Arkansas nursing home administrator
Elizabeth Ward Gracen - struggling Arkansas actress & former Miss America

So who had the power in those relationships? If the Clintons decided to have an open marriage, that's their choice - but no way was the governor of a state or the president of a country a helpless pawn.
