From The Dysfunctional President by Paul Fick, PhD.,
(From a chapter on the Monica Lewinski Affair)

"If the public fails to hold the president accountable for his behavior, the outcome is relatively easy to predict. President Clinton
will remain an individual with a serious sexual compulsion in a highly stressful position with access to many women, and the public will have provided reinforcement for his behavior. This combination would result in an increased need to exhibit even more risky sexual behavior.

Clinton's need for self-derailment, which derives from overachievement
and anger toward himself, has not changed. The only difference will be
that the public has sent a message to him: his sexual behavior has to be extreme in order to provoke public outrage.

Very likely, the president will comply with that message."

I thought this might be a fitting post for the Sanity thread.
