Well, your experience is the direct opposite of mine. Since the Monica scandal broke, I have visited London, Paris, Geneva, Berlin, Frankfurt and Amsterdam for business. While you are right about Clinton's support in the liberal press and in political circles, you are wrong about the man-on-the-street support. Europeans generally consider his finger wagging lie a disgrace. It's not the fact that he fooled around on his wife that bothers people. It's how he handled the truth and manipulated the justice system that riles people.

I've asked business associates, taxi drivers, restaurant and hotel workers and others I've come across, and they all tell me any European leader would have resigned under similar circumstances. It is "the honorable thing to do" is what I'm told.
