Clinton stands alone.
Johnson was impeached as was Clinton. There is a difference between impeachement and being thrown out of office.
As much as I despise Clinton history stands......both were convicted in the house and the senate let em go to the best of my knowledge......

Two U.S. presidents have been impeached: Andrew Johnson, the seventeenth chief executive, and William J. Clinton, the forty-second.
Johnson, a Southern Democrat who became president after Lincoln's assassination, supported a mild policy of Reconstruction after the Civil War. The Radical Republicans in Congress were furious at his leniency toward ex-Confederates and obvious lack of concern for ex-slaves, demonstrated by his veto of civil rights bills and opposition to the Fourteenth Amendment. To protect Radical Republicans in Johnson's administration and diminish the strength of the president, Congress passed the Tenure of Office Act in 1867, which prohibited the president from dismissing office holders without the Senate's approval. A defiant Johnson tested the constitutionality of the Act by attempting to oust Secretary of War Edwin M. Stanton. His violation of the Act became the basis for impeachment in 1868. But the Senate was one vote short of the two-thirds majority needed to convict, and Johnson was acquitted May 26, 1868.
On December 19, following much debate over the constitutionality of the proceedings and whether or not Clinton could be punished by censure rather than impeachment, the House of Representatives held its historic vote. Clinton was impeached on two counts, grand jury perjury and obstruction of justice , with the votes split along party lines. The Senate Republicans, however, were unable to gather enough support to achieve the two-thirds majority required for his conviction. On Feb. 12, 1999, the Senate acquitted President Clinton on both counts. The perjury charge failed by a vote of 55–45, with 10 Republicans voting against impeachment along with all 45 Democrats. The obstruction of justice vote was 50–50, with 5 Republicans breaking ranks to vote against impeachment.
Andrew Johnson was impeached, he just wasn't convicted (thats where he won by one vote, in the Senate). I can only add the contrasting press/media characterizations of people who have done roughly the same thing: Donald Segretti = political dirty trickster, Dick Tuck = hysterically funny political jokester; Linda Tripp = snitch, Mark Felt = dutybound to protect the Constitution; Fox News = biased right wing media, Washington Post = protectors of the Constitution; Charles Colson = Nixon's political hatchetman, George Stephanopolous = Clinton's fellow Rhodes Scholar and brilliant political strategist. I could go on for days.
Clinton stands alone.
No, Johnson was impeached same as Clinton. Impeachment is akin to an inditement. Neither were convicted by the senate. Johnson missed being kicked out by 1 vote. Clinton's was not as close.
Johnson WAS Impeached and avoided conviction in the Senate by 1 vote. Clinton WAS imeached and avoided conviction in the Senate by 16 votes.
