	Not to mention the fact you obviously have no clue!  If you 
	really believe Nixon was run out of office for looking at 1 or
	2 FBI files you really need to review history.  Oh I know it
	really was that liberal press that did it.  You know the ones
	that endorse Dole.  There were something on the order of 200
	newspapers endorsing Dole to around 100 for Clinton.  Selective
	memory.  Hell no wonder the country club set retained control
	of the house.  The ccs and the religious right,  politics sure
	make for some strange bed fellows.
	
	Hell yes you could go on, but you would be making it up just like
	your previous bull shit.  Why stop here.  I heard he was really 
	a satan worshiper and that he like to kick puppies to death and that
	he is having an affair with Yelstin and that he is secretly plotting
	to brain wash school children to believe in the "new world order" ....

	Clinton won by a WIDE margin,  (if it had been Dole your buddies 
	would be screaming from the highest roofs about a mandate from
	the people)  deal with it.
