There are too may Repubs who also profited in some way by Chinagate. Hillabat still has copies of the FBI files and the derog info from both would quickly be spread over a willing media about evil Republicans and their sins and ties to illicit Chinese contributions.
Look the Republican party was AWOL for 8 years on issues of defense spending and how US forces were being used. It wasn't just Slickest who was doing a Monica on the armed forces the Republicans were just as happy as the Dems to gut defense budgets and watch the effect of 'paying the deficit down' on the stock market.
When Chinagate surfaced it was treated with much less than eager delight by most of the Repub leadership for reasons stated in paragraph one. Combined with the sorry record the party had in doing effectively nothing with the mangling of the armed forces that was underway the GOP has a lot to be modest about for the Clinton years.

Huh, the Commander in Chief was not Republican during those eight years? The legislative branch does not dictate military strategy.
This is of little point now in any case since it will not lead to anything of positive use against those undermining our nation even yet.
