The GOP is making a serious mistake with these hearings, IMO. The Republicans should focus their efforts on expunging the ugly elements from their party that make them currently unelectable on a national level. They should be focusing on building up George W. Bush or Pete Wilson for what I promise you will be a gruelling death match with Al Gore--or even smarter for the Dems--someone untainted like Bill Bradley. They should be refining their message of fiscal conservatism and reaching out to the key constituencies of the 21st Century--Latinos, blacks, and Asians. They should actively shed their White Hetereosexual Christian America First image and come up with an inclusive vision of America. The last thing they need to do is to waste energy on this impeachment and further associate themselves with the intolerant elements in America who are cheering the inquiry on. For every Clinton-hater mouthing off about Vince Foster or Bloodgate (and his apathetic wife and punk-rock-listening daughter): there's a Mexican bodega owner with a wife and four kids a rich gay professional and his equally successful partner (and both of their increasingly mellow parents and relatives) a black medical technician and his public service employee wife and their two kids a socially liberal, fiscally conservative (Gov. William Weld material) BMW-driving couple in the burbs with their 1.8 kids and planned vacation to the Greek Islands and a Pakistani computer programmer who will soon be eligible for citizenship. The future of America demographically is international, multicultural and, within the context of this diversity, by necessity* socially tolerant. These people to a major extent represent a large part of the future of this country. The Democrats, whether by instinct or plan, are actively courting them. But where's the GOP? Getting hemorrhoids from sitting on their butts in committee hearings or getting tongue blisters from licking the rear-ends of Gary Bauer and other rightwing throwbacks.
