Of course the whole Clinton thing was a set up. Sorry to be crude but if someone spunked on my dress it would be straight to the dry cleaners with it. But no, this one sat soiled in a wardrobe for months. I hold no brief for Prescott but why can't we be more like the French, excellent nation, and leave what happens in the bedroom behind closed doors.

Doubtless. Profumo, anyone? But if we showed less interest, there would be less political capital to be made out of it.
Yes but Michael..
Do you not feel, that in the political world, these things are leaked at a time to suit everyone around the gossipee themself?

I couldn't help thinking that the whole Clinton/cigar thing was pure manipulation. I don't think politicans' private lives should be used as a weapon. What do we know of what happens inside a couple? And I fail to see how it affects public office. The line that "if he/she is cheating at home, can we trust them" is spurious. Look what the family values approach has led to in the US: politicians that pat babies heads while sending the elder brothers to what was almost a world war (and unjustified). So I'd leave off the politicians' lives. It's largely irrelevant.

What amazed me was?
How did he find the time to do it?
Surely it has to be one of the most busy jobs in the world?
