Very nice twist. We can't impeach Clinton or perhaps even question his fitness because no one else on the Republican side is "pure". That is ridiculous. I'm no great lover of the Republicans in the House and Senate. Their leadership on these scandals is noticeably non-existent. The fact that maybe some Republicans, even most of them, are just as repulsive as Clinton does not justify his total lack of fitness for the office he holds. If you say that calling it as you see them is "Clinton bashing" so be it. I'm a Clinton basher. As to the stock market, I doubt there will even be a blip. The path of succession is clear, Gore couldn't be any worse than Clinton and how does a Clinton demise change the fundamentals in this market? That's no reason not to expect our President to be someone we can look up to.

I agree wholeheartedly. The problem with the World these days is that it often seems choices come down to "the lesser of evils". In Canada, I am often forced to vote on this principle. Politics in the 90's is all about mud slinging and the media is in on it 100%-whatever sells papers. People will always find problems with candidates, or elected officials and that seems to be the name of the game.

My opinion being from Canada: Although, I do not agree IF what Clinton "allegedly" did is true, who else could run the country right now? Clinton is by far the best choice. Everyone should think back to George Bush and Dan Quayle. If anything happened to Bush, Quayle would have been President. That was a scary thought in Canada, let alone the U.S. I have a mixed opinion about Al Gore, but I am certain he is not ready to run the country, nor is anyone from the Republican Party that I can think of. Another certainty is that this problem is only causing instability in the U.S. and the World's opinion of the U.S. It is unfortunate that political mud slinging has come to this point. A stable presidency means a stable country.

Like you suggested, who would take Clinton's place? No matter what he is the best person for the job. I don't think anyone could name a better person for President.
