Who was she going to report it to? Clinton was the Attorney General for Arkansas at the time. She probably would have ended up with a completely destroyed reputation, or worse, dead.

She might have tried her local police. We will never know since she was guttless in Little Rock. Maybe she wouldnt have gotten a conviction but she might have derailed his career.

Mitchell was Attorney General of the US during WAtergate and he was indicted and convicted for his role in the break-in and related activiites. What makes you think Clinton was so powerful? The Demo establishment in the state might have found such criminal acts too embarrassing to allow him to continue.

Regardless, you are correct that it doesn't do much good to keep harping on it. It's not going to convince anyone anyway. The people who believe Clinton is a rapist, believe it. Those who don't, probably never will.

Whether it could be proven or not is less important than the reality that it is highly plausible, considering Bill’s pattern of behavior.

If the accused didn’t have the name “Clinton” (of maybe Kennedy) it wouldn’t matter how old the charges were or how dubious the accuser. And if you deny that, you are beyond reach.

She might have tried her local police..... The Demo establishment in the state might have found such criminal acts too embarrassing to allow him to continue.

Let's see, the local police? Would that be the boys who were out soliciting sex and delivering Bill's "squeeze of the night" when he was the Guv? Oh yes, and I'm sure that a state Democratic establishment would have more integrity about believing a isolated criminal charge by some nobody against their own state AG than did the national Democratic establishment when the spotlight was on them and there were five women making charges against Bill.
Those are just absurd suggestions given the circumstances. Ms.Brodderick clearly understood the futility of making such charges in a place like Arkansas when it was only her word against a powerful sociopath's !
