It is hard for me to imagine Clinton -- a president of the US getting involved with a geek such as Monica -- as having a high IQ. His lies were so transparent they could have fooled only the likes of Madeline Albright. As for Gore having a high IQ -- if true, there is something else loose in his head.

We *all* know what it's like to be about to do something we know full well is stupid or risky, then go ahead and do it anyway for reasons other than how well it shapes up on the "how smart is this" meter.
