OH-OH, HERE COMES MONICA!

PowerLine  "Bad news* for Bill Clinton is bad news for the Democratic Party, given that Clinton has become that party’s most popular figure and its only elder statesman." 
 "Monica Lewinsky is reportedly set to write a tell-all book about her affair with Bill Clinton – including her intimate love letters to the ex-president and how he had an insatiable desire for threesomes."
"What impact will such revelations have? Perhaps not much; after all, Jaunita Broddrick’s allegation that Clinton raped her was generally ignored, even though there was no particular reason to think it was untrue. And it may be that in today’s culture, scandal is a near-impossibility. P. J. O’Rourke wrote in Give War A Chance:"

You can’t shame or humiliate modern celebrities. What used to be called shame and humiliation is now called publicity . And forget traditional character assassination; if you say a modern celebrity is an adulterer, a pervert and a drug addict, all it means is that you’ve read his autobiography.
How badly did the story of the Ted Kennedy, Chris Dodd "waitress sandwich" hurt those two men or the Democrats? If you're a Democrat, these stories are a resume' enhancement.

* Bear in mind the source for this is the National Enquirer. But then, hasn't our mainstream press dropped to their level, making the NE relatively as trusted a source?
