Delusional is as delusional does: ......"I think the President's reputation is pretty darn good in the eyes of the American people," Mr. Bennett said. Uttered by anyone other than a professional advocate, the remark would seem delusional. It certainly fit a pattern whereby the case for public respect of Mr. Clinton weakens while his lawyers and spinners celebrate their own toughness and threaten the destruction of his enemies. The fact is that by the steady deployment of their destructive skills against the citizens they designate as enemies, the President's hired defenders are shredding their boss's claim on public admiration..... .....His advocates and supporters have a mantra: these are only allegations. But that is a temporary shelter. It permanently protects Mr. Clinton's place in history only if there are no seedy facts to emerge in the trial that Mr. Bennett says he will make into a pitched battle come this May. Common sense dictates that such a trial can help Mr. Clinton only if it is shown that a sizable number of women have been enlisted in an astonishingly complex campaign of coordinated lying. The lawyers and certain White House aides keep beating the tocsin for a publicity war. They would serve their boss better by finding some way of sensible retreat. At Camp David this weekend, Mr. Clinton should reflect on the fact that Mr. Bennett will not write the history books. But he seems to have perfected a dandy way to produce a lot of negative material for those who will. Today's New York Times editorial, Mr. Clinton's Dangerous Friends nytimes.com

The smartest thing the Republicans can do right now is to do everything in their power to keep Clinton in office right through the next presidential election. The smartest thing the Democrats can do right now is to impeach him Monday morning after coffee. Clinton is the Republican's biggest asset. Jim

Kathleen Willey tells a national television audience tonight that the president groped her just outside the Oval Office. "I could not believe the recklessness of that act," she tells Ed Bradley on 60 MINUTES. And quite frankly, neither can I. Willey has not shown herself to be a particularly reliable story-teller so far. Like so many people in this case, she seems more than willing to say whatever she thinks will serve her interests at the moment. The Steele business is interesting, no?
