Public Support for the President, and for Closure, Emerges Unshaken nytimes.com To go with that piece, and the numbers given there, here's the early results from the NYT. Once again, the results aren't pretty for the party of Lincoln. Although the Times/CBS News poll suggests something approaching a consensus on how the Clinton case should be resolved, there has been little evidence to date that congressional Republicans were considering polls in deciding how to proceed with this case. This poll found again that the Republican Party was paying a political price for its pursuit of Clinton. The Republican Party is now viewed unfavorably by 58 percent of respondents, up from 52 percent last week. That is the worst standing the party has posted in the 14 years since The Times and CBS first began asking respondents the question. The public view of the party is even more negative today than it was after the 1994 shutdown of the government. Barely one-third of respondents saw congressional Republicans as being in touch with the views of the nation, while nearly two-thirds said they believed the Republicans were pursuing the case for purely partisan motives: to damage Clinton and the Democratic Party. Yeah, but the people who don't understand the righteous concern for truth and justice expressed the Republicans are all whores. Just ask Rev. Pilch. Too bad all those whores have the right to vote.
