Jack Palladino, a private investigator hired by Bill Clinton's
1992 campaign to help with damage control on the candidate's
purported affairs, tells the New Yorker magazine that he has
been evading lawyers for Paula Jones, who have staked out his
home and office for the past two weeks.
"We serve people with subpoenas, so certainly we know
how not to be served," Mr. Palladino told reporter Jane
Mayer. A lawyer for the president commented: "He said that?
That is so stupid. What does he want, to be held in contempt?
Oh, God, just what we need."
Mr. Palladino, who has been accused of intimidating
women who might have come forward, said of the scandal
involving Monica Lewinsky, a former White House intern:
"Well, in a joking way, I have to say that either the president
should have had the judgment never to get involved with
someone like that -- or else he should have kept me on
permanent retainer."
