I think there is a lesson here for conservatives as well. We should all remember that the relentless attacks on Clinton did not produce the desired effects either.

Americans do not want another Watergate they do not want to face the shame of looking at their President humbled. Both parties should learn to handle the president with more tact.

This is a double-edged sword. If the president commits crimes in office, are we right to simply overlook them? Do we have a monarchy? Granted, the Democratic Party has proven that it will overlook anything in the interests of holding power (and let's not kid ourselves: Clinton's perjury and Toricelli's machinations are but the tip of the iceberg for them). But do we? Should we? Can we? What is more important to us: the rule of law or power? Because sometimes, you only get to choose one.
