Presidential wisdom>An alleged scandal involving President Clinton and
a former White House intern was spiraling out of control Sunday
with graphic reports of phone sex, multiple affairs and Oval Office
assignations threatening to sink his presidency.

As the White House anxiously awaited the outcome of negotiations
that could allow Monica Lewinsky to tell all about her alleged affair
with Clinton, the president's former chief of staff spoke openly
about the possibility of resignation.

Independent prosecutor Kenneth Starr and Lewinsky's lawyers
discussed an agreement to grant her immunity from prosecution in
exchange for her testimony. Negotiations recessed on Saturday
without a deal and were expected to resume Sunday.

The president was closeted in the White House. He met Vice
President Al Gore and other foreign policy advisers on the situation
in Iraq and on his scheduled Tuesday night speech to Congress, his
annual State of the Union address.

Clinton and friends saw a movie in the White House theater on
Saturday night and he planned to watch professional football's
Super Bowl on television on Sunday. He has no scheduled public
events on Monday.

An NBC poll showed that Clinton's popularity was plummeting,
down 15 percentage points since the scandal broke four days ago.
In addition, 70 percent of those surveyed did not believe the
president had been candid or open.

And a Newsweek poll said 49 percent of Americans favored
Clinton's impeachment and removal from office if the charge were
true that he told Lewinsky to lie under oath.

Former Commerce Secretary Mickey Kantor, a lawyer and Clinton
friend, was retained to help in damage control. Officials said former
deputy chief of staff Harold Ickes might also play an informal
advisory role.

Leon Panetta, who left the chief of staff's job at the Clinton White
House in 1996, raised the specter of resignation in an interview
published on Saturday by the San Jose Mercury News. Panetta said
the scandal had created a crisis for the Democratic Party.
