BY PAUL A. GIGOT Friday, February 23, 2001 12:01 a.m.

"If there had been no so-called scandals, does anyone doubt who would be sitting in the Oval Office today?"

You must recall that Al Gore blamed Clinton and not the Supremes or the Electoral college for his Pres campaign loss to Dubya!

AS this piece points out when will dims ever figure out that Clinton is the problem? When will the Dims ever take responsibility for there own actions and consequences for their actions.

The Democrats will continue to suffer for their wrongs at least until they quit referring to Clinton's "so-called" scandals.

I dunno...
The longer the Clintons hang around, the more I like it.

I am not sure of the point of posting a year old story. Seems as if the dems have still not gotten it!

I was going to say how can they get rid of them when they can't even admit that they are corrupt pustules.

The Democrats are the Party of Clinton. Until they exorcise that particular demon, they deserve what they get (i.e., battered at the polls).

(BTW, Paul, I thought of a pic that should be done: A picture of Al Gore wearing a teeshirt that says, "I flunked out of the Electoral College."

Instead the Democratic Party wants to divorce the Clintons.

It looks like the clintons have their claws in the DNC, never to let go......even as the DNC continues its' death spiral.

Usually the abused spouse is too "blinded by love" to know what is happening to them. So it is with the Dim faithful - - and they don't want to hear it from the rest of us that they don't have to put up with the abuse anymore.

It may take another election or two - - more black eyes and bruises, before they see the light and kick the Clinton bums to the curb.....

"And John Ashcroft is now attorney general."

If John Ashcroft was a devout Muslim, the Dims wouldn't say a word.

(BTW, Paul, I thought of a pic that should be done: A picture of Al Gore wearing a teeshirt that says, "I flunked out of the Electoral College."

Heh heh! I'll see what I can do.

Three words: FILES, FILES, FILES.

Everyone assumes Hillary was digging into only Republican pasts.

Democrats? Courage? Never gonna happen.

As much as I'd like to see the Clintons disappear from the face of the earth, I'm rather partial to the thought of the dems having to be saddled with them for years to come. (No pun intended, Bill). I see the author had the good sense to include Monica Lewinsky's ex-boyfriend's wife in his analysis.

It will take at least a generation to wash the Clinton stench and stain out of the Democrat thong.

It's a two-year old story, actually, written shortly after the defeats of 2000. Remember how long that election was? We didn't know who was president until December! I think the story is relevant now, after this recent defeat and rejection of Clintonism by the voters.

As long as Hillary is around, so will Bill be lingering. They must get rid of Hillary.

Actually, I hope the Dimwits continue under the spell of The Rapist. Having him continue as the turd in the DNC swimming pool just makes it easier for the GOP to win elections.

It's taken a while for this to sink in.

Isn't it amazing the number of words that conjure up double meanings when referring to clintbilly?

WOW!!!

This article is so accurate, it's scary.

Let's hope that the Democrat leaders never seriously ponder its message! But, considering that they have Maxine Waters, Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton to stir the pot, I think we can breathe a little easier.

Willie and Hillie are the ultimate sleazes. The dems will never leave them. Only they can release the dems. You don't think Willie was/is collecting FBI files on only Republicans, do you? One of the first things he did when he got unlimited access to everything Reno/Freeh had at the FBI was to build files on his close associates. They will have no choice but to do what Willie wants when it comes to supporting Hillie. It was never just about sex, it was always about filth, corruption, and criminality.

Se this man?

His name is Tom Foley

He used to be the most powerful man in the House of Representatives.

Tom was called to Little Rock, Arkansas by Hillary Rodham to listen to her 'thoughts' on how the Congress would be run for the 1993 session.

Tom got a big surprise when he listened to the First Lady tell him how he was to run his business.

Tom realized that all attempts to stop Hillary and her advance was futile.

Tom was not a happy camper at that meeting.

The look on Tom's face was similar to the picture above.

Tom realized that his @$$ was gr@$$. That his days as Speaker of the House were over.

Tom twisted and turned in the wind at his next election.

Did Hillary care what she did to a fellow democrat?

Does Hillary care if other democrats end up twisting in the wind like a bug caught in a spider web.

Nope.
