Public will see Clinton video
By Hugo Gurdon in Washington

telegraph.co.uk

Excerpt:

FIVE hours of videotape showing an irritable, undignified and seemingly dishonest President Clinton trying to conceal his affair with Monica Lewinsky are expected to be broadcast today, compounding the crisis in the White House.

The House of Representatives judiciary committee is expected to meet today and decide to release the tape of Mr Clinton's sworn testimony to the grand jury. White House officials are preparing for a "video nasty" which could have a devastating effect on the President's public support, for Mr Clinton is known to have looked evasive.

He has acknowledged trying to deceive Kenneth Starr, the independent counsel investigating perjury, witness tampering, obstruction of justice and abuse of power, but says he did not lie or perjure himself.

Democrats push Clinton to resign
By Hugo Gurden in Washington

telegraph.co.uk

Excerpt:

A Republican landslide has begun to rumble down on Capitol Hill and the Democrats fear being buried by it. Some 15 to 20 Democratic seats in the House of Representatives and five in the Senate are expected to be lost to the Republicans.

Elections on Tuesday in which parties in 11 states chose their candidates produced record low turnouts, boding ill for the Democrats. Their pollsters say the Democratic base may be too demoralised to bother voting while social conservatives, angered by the President's sexual adventures, could turn out heavily in favour of Republicans.

A recent study by the Congressional Quarterly newsletter put not a single Republican House seat in danger but said that the Democrats could lose seats in North Carolina, Ohio, Iowa, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Hawaii, Pennsylvania and in Oregon, plus two in California.


Bill Clinton, the Republican Party thanks you.
