it's okay, DD. If Clinton is still in office in November, then voters in ever greater numbers may simply decide that they want to send a message to Washington D.C.

Some have mentioned that the voters "knew that Clinton lied about Gennifer Flowers" and elected him anyway, but that was certainly not the spin at the time: The spin was "that was before he was President!" It wasn't, "we think affairs are fine". The message from Clinton was "I've caused pain to my family in the past, but my wife and I have worked through it"...blah blah blah. Obviously we see now that he didn't mean a word of it, nevertheless Clinton supporters insisted that people "give him a chance, people make mistakes", etc.

The message was *not* "big deal, his womanizing is no big deal".
