Clinton 'standing on quicksand' as support drains away By Hugo Gurdon in Washington telegraph.co.uk Excerpts: Surveys show big increases in the proportion of voters who think the President should resign or be impeached. The tide of opinion may run even faster after Americans today see more than four hours of Mr Clinton's testimony to a grand jury in the Monica Lewinsky scandal. It has emerged, according to one leak, that Mr Clinton debates the meaning of the phrase "the whole truth" in his oath before giving testimony, and also that he walks out in fury at one point because his cross-examiners grill him about the exact nature of his sexual contact with Miss Lewinsky, a junior White House employee. Later, after protracted wrangling with prosecutors, a member of the grand jury butts in and asks: "Why aren't you answering the questions?" Even though today's evidence is mountainous - eight times the length of the Starr report 10 days ago - it is still less than a tenth of what remains. Today's release is from just one of the 17 boxes of Starr report documents, and the judiciary committee has yet to decide about editing and releasing the remaining 16. That could come next week. RS
